Maybe not the most intense representation of Albert King but a good example of his versatility. Highly recommend!
Buy it! Feb 18, 2008
If you like blues you probably already know about Albert King. If you don't then sit back and listen to a few tracks. You'll love it.

He's the king baby!!! May 25, 2007
Listen to this and you can hear a lot of where SRV got his style. It's no secret and he's the one who directed me to listen to Albert in an interview I saw with him. Albert wears it out, flying V upside, bendin' the crap out of those strings. He's got chops, feel and soul, not a bad singer either. I wish this CD had his version of "Stormy Monday," but it's a great CD anyway. Enjoy!

Some of the best Albert King stuff May 01, 2006
Agreed - this is some of the best songs I heard Albert play on record. Truly an excellent collection. You'll hear not only Albert's awesome soulful singing but also a LOT of intense blues guitar, which is truly "King". The sound quality leaves more to be desired, but it is acceptable. Material more than makes up for it. I played this record to someone who's never heard Albert King's material before and they were shocked. I'm a fan of Albert King, and this is a valuable disc in my collection.

King of the Blues Guitar Feb 26, 2006
This is my absolute favorite recording by Albert King. I had the album for years and literally wore it out playing it. I finally got the CD to replace my album and was pleasantly surprised to find it included some additional material not on the LP. Any collection of blues material is not complete without this.
Albert King's "Personal Manager" is one of the best examples of why he was such a genious. The soft, syncopated piano, the delayed introduction of horns, the gradual build of energy in his voice and the blazing guitar lead send chills up my spine. I love this CD.
