King, B.B. ‎– The Best Of B.B. King

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON MCA 1980

MCA251 020-1 made in Germany.

Vinyl NM. Cover VG+.

True, this 1973 vintage best-of album covers a ridiculously slim wedge of time in the blues king's long career. Yet this period was quite significant, for it marks the crest of B.B. King's initial entry into the pop music mass market -- and this album surfs succinctly, if not comprehensively, over the high points of his turn-of-the-decade winning streak.
