    This 180 gram Limited Edition vinyl version includes a free download card featuring extra B.B. King tracks and a bonus album: 'The Rough Guide to Original Bluesmen'. This album focuses on his most productive and hit-making years of the 1950s. 

    B.B. King is one of the longest-reigning blues monarchs in history. Armed with his favourite Gibson guitar affectionately named, 'Lucille' he has developed a truly unique guitar style. Thick left-hand vibrato, intense string bends and understated phrasing are perfectly mixed with his deep, booming voice. Listen to the legend's early works lovingly re-mastered to perfection on this raw and bluesy Rough Guide.
