Hit: 5 Stars
There are very few CD's that I would classify as "mandatory", but this is one of them. If you are new to blues, this is a perfect CD for your collection. Whether you're 8 or 80, this disc contains the most absolutely beautiful music you've ever heard. At low volume, you've got intelligent, elegant background music (that will make your dinner guests think you're more sophisticated than you are!). If you crank it up, you can experience the full texture of fluid guitar playing and all of the complexity that blues has to offer. In short, I would describe "Spotlight on Lucille" as the "Dark Side of the Moon" of blues music.
If you're a blues afficionado and don't already have this in your collection, then shame on you! Get it, enjoy it, and enjoy it again!
Spotlight on Lucille Poster
B.B. King is the most influential guitarist in the instrument's electric history. His string-bending, vibrato, and phrasing are the raw material that players as diverse as Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and Pink Floyd's David Gilmour have spun into their own epic solos. This CD draws on King's '60s efforts for the defunct Kent label, tapping rarely heard instrumental tracks to present a crash course in his unique fusion of country blues, the single-string soloing perfected by Lonnie Johnson, and the swinging phrasing of jazz guitar pioneers like Charlie Christian and Django Reinhardt. Tunes like "Slidin' and Glidin'" and "Calypso Jazz" are tickets to blues heaven. --Ted DrozdowskiBlues Music CDs
