Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Freddie King


Honestly, of the three Kings (Albert and BB being the other two), Freddie may have actually been the most complete musician (arguable, I know). He had a really good voice (unlike Albert), and was a really technically proficient guitarist (unlike BB).

Anyway, this song is overlong, sure. I like the 45 version of this song. I mean... what a great lyric: "Have you ever loved a woman so much you trembled in pain?" Outstanding.

Happy Friday.
