Albert King

One of my favorite blues guitarists is Albert King - one of the three "Kings of the Blues." Haven't heard Albert King? Listen to Albert King

Why is he one of my favorites and why is he one of the Kings? Well, he is the man who brought us songs such as Born Under A Bad Sign and if you really want to see something magical check out his "In Session" performance with Stevie Ray Vaughn.

A few more recommended tracks such as "As The Years Go Passing By" and the popular "Laundromat Blues" can be found here - King of the Blues Guitar - And you can listen to his classic song "I'll Play The Blues For You" here - The Very Best of Albert King. He is known for playing a Gibson Flying V but since he is left-handed he flipped the guitar around and re-strung it, similar to the way Jimi Hendrix did.

I am in the process of changing this site around and will be updating it more often so check back as often as you can... - Rick
