B.B. King is universally recognized as the leading exponent of modern blues. A fourteen time Grammy winner, he has received virtually every music award, including the Grammy for Lifetime Achievement in 1987. He is one of the greatest, most influential blues guitar stylists, composers and singers of the 20th century and is without a doubt the single most important electric guitarist of the last half century, ranked 3rd in Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.
'B.B. King - Live At The BBC', is a wonderful collection that compiles the best of B.B. King's BBC recordings onto one CD for the very first time and includes some of his biggest hits, such as "Paying the Cost to Be the Boss" and "The Thrill Is Gone" as well as "When Love Comes To Town", the duet with U2 that took him to the top of the UK charts and gave him his first MTV exposure.
Featuring highlights from his 3 finest UK performances alongside a session recording made in the BBC's studios, this CD offers an incredible snapshot of an artist at the peak of his career performing some of his greatest material.
