Blues Band Shuffle - Freddie King

The range of Texas blues guitar styles, both rural and urban, is captured in this collection of fourteen performances by four legendary Texas bluesmen. Blazing 1991 performances by the great Albert Collins generate a heat which belies his Iceman moniker. Freddie King cooks at a full boil in a 1972 set which includes his signature Blues Band Shuffle. Rare 1960 footage of Lightnin' Hopkins shows how intense the downhome acoustic blues could be. A 1968 performance by Mance Lipscomb traces the blues tradition to its work song taproot with Captain, Captain.
Titles include: ALBERT COLLINS Iceman, Lights Are On But Nobody's Home, Head Rag FREDDIE KING Big Leg Woman, Blues Band Shuffle, Going Down LIGHTNIN' HOPKINS Baby, Come Go Home With Me, Going Down Slow, Bunion Stew, Let's Pull A Party MANCE LIPSCOMB Captain, Captain, Night Time Is The Right Time, God Moves On The Water, Which Way Do The Red River Run

Incredible. That shirt collar!

[@diment0857]

The greatest of the Kings. Oh and I think this King instrumental is called Boogie Funk and his backing band is killer with very interesting orchestration to accompany the virtuoso with both piano and B3 organ beside drums and bass. RIP Freddie, your divine gift will never be forgotten.

Freddy mostly plays great in-the-pocket rhythm guitar and lets the band show off until about the 5 minute mark when he takes of and just wrings out an insane solo. Awesome performance!

Well spotted Jonas.

[@steveedward5074]

He had stage presence. He is a sort of un discoverd.

Different of B.B,who was a more static player,he does the boogie with the guitar.
