Albert King was truly a "King of the Blues". Along with B.B. King and [artist, Albert King is one of the major influences on blues and rock guitar players. Without him, modern guitar music would not sound as it does — his style influenced both black and white blues players from Otis Rush and Robert Cray to Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughan. It’s important to note that while almost all modern blues guitarists seldom play for long without falling into a B.B. King guitar cliché, Albert King never did — he had his own style and unique tone from the beginning. Discover more music, concerts, videos, and pictures with the largest catalogue online at Last.fm.
