King of the Blues

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 2, 2001

Verified Purchase

Prison performances are sort of a standard for blues singers, and it just doesn't get any better than this -- B.B. King playing his classics live at the San Quentin Correctional facility. I used to have this cassette, but I played it so much that it popped!
Here King is playing to a truly captive audience offering up such classics as "The Thrill is Gone," "Sweet 16," "In the Heat of the Night," and my personal favorite "Nobody Loves Me But My Mother." In the intro to that last selection King explains to the inmates that while the blues was not just about hard times, some of the tunes could be pretty depressing. "Some of it can be pretty down alley. Like I'm fixing to do right now. I'm going all the way down to the bottom." Yet he also encourages the audience to go on and boogie off some of the uptempo tracks. This is music from the heart, and you can just feel the soul of the artist. This is the blues -- unvarnished, straight up and raw -- served up by a master of the genre.
King broke a few strings on his faithful Lucille during this performance, but he never misses a note. His voice is still clear after all these years and he still knows how to spin a tale through song. He does a few audience participation numbers and banters smoothly with the crowd and the band. This is a fundamental recording, and an important part of my collection.

Another great show by the king of the blues. Perhaps his best, and longer than Regal & Cook Co. Jail concert cd's.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 24, 2013

Verified Purchase

BB King and his seasoned band give prison inmates a stunning free concert that any fan would have gladly paid to see. Mr. King does not pander to the inmates with his personal concerns about their circumstances. Instead he delivers a great show without making judgments.

One of B.B's great albums..,

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 25, 2015

This is certainly one of B.B.'s great albums. The performance was very exuberant and lively.

The concert was well recorded, for the most part, although there are a few transitions between tracks that leaves a bit to be desired

live at san quentin, a true masters lesson in blues from BB King

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on November 28, 2017

Verified Purchase

powerful disc, so full of energy, BB is so on top of his game and of course the inmates are really appreciative, having BB playing for them alone is a truly fine event. This disc reminds me of a very early BB disc called Live at the Cook County Jail, that was also a very good disc. I saw BB many years ago back in the mid seventies BB played just as independantly then as he does now, but that is the manner in which he plays, and he makes it work. As for the disc it certainly is representative of the masters work. Here he hits most of his all time hits, THE THRILL IS GONE, SWEET SIXTEEN, AINT NOBODIES BUSINESS, and so on.

Ein absolut mitreißendes und überzeugendes Liveerlebnis vom King Og The Blues!

Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on August 31, 2016

Verified Purchase

In meiner Musiksammlung befinden sich bereits so einige Tonträger vom King Of The Blues. Somit verfüge ich durchaus über Vergleichsmöglichkeiten im Schaffen dieses Gitarrengottes. Mir persönlich gefallen die Mitschnitte seiner Liveauftritte wesentlich besser als seine Studioalben. Live At The Regal ist sicherlich ein Monument seines musikalischen Wirkens. Bislang war Live At The Apollo mein Lieblingskonzert. Und nun habe ich mir wieder einmal ein Live Album von ihm zugelegt. 1990 trat B.B. King ebenso wie bereits Johnny Cash im Jahre 1969 in der berühmt berüchtigten Haftanstalt San Quentin auf. Meine Bewertung des Albums bezieht sich auf die remasterte Aufnahme aus dem Jahre 2001. Um es vorweg zu nehmen: Dieser Auftritt muss göttlich gewesen sein. Viele der bekannten Songs von B.B. King sind zu hören. Die Stimmung unter den inhaftierten Zuhörern ist prickelnd und auf dem Album zu spüren. Als Beispiel hierfür nenne ich mal den Song „Ain't Nobody's Bizness“. Aber die Freude des Publikums über ihren musikalischen Besucher ist bei fast jedem Song erfahrbar. Das ist sicherlich ein Grund dafür, weshalb dieses Album so interessant ist. Wesentlicher sind allerdings die tolle Präsentation der Songs und die spürbare Spielfreude der hervorragend agierenden Musiker. Hinzu kommt der ausgesprochen tolle Sound des Albums. Natürlich darf B.B. Kings „The Thrill Is Gone“ nicht fehlen. Ich besitze den Song bereits schon zigmal. Diese Aufnahme ist auch wieder absolut mitreißend! Meinem Erachten nach ist jedoch „Sweet Sixteen“ das Highlight des Konzertes.
Nach dem Hören der CD kann ich jedenfalls die Begeisterung der Hörerschaft bei B.B. Kings Liveauftritt in San Quentin absolut nachvollziehen.
