Albert King - Live Wire / Blues Power / 180 gram vinyl LP
Bluesville Acoustic Sounds Series
Live Wire/Blues Power is a live album from Albert King recorded in 1968 at the Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, CA. Featuring originals and King’s rendition of classics, the album demonstrates Albert King’s blues prowess. Pressed on 180-gram vinyl at QRP, this album is released in partnership with Acoustic Sounds, and features a paper-wrapped tip-on jacket.
Live Wire/Blues Power is one of Albert King's definitive albums. Recorded live at the Fillmore Auditorium in 1968, the guitarist is at the top of his form throughout the record -- his solos are intense and piercing. The band is fine, but ultimately it's King's show -- he makes Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man" dirty and funky and wrings out all the emotion from "Blues at Sunrise." AllMusicGuide
