Cotillion records 1969 – SD 9004
notes:
Freddie King Is A Blues Master stands as an essential recording for
fans of vintage blues vinyl. The album highlights King’s ability to
combine traditional blues structures with a modern electric attack
that helped shape blues-rock during the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The production on this Cotillion release gives plenty of space to
Freddie King’s signature guitar sound. His stinging leads and emotional
bends create a dynamic listening experience filled
with tension, release, and groove.
Released on Cotillion Records, Freddie King Is A Blues Master remains
one of the defining albums in Freddie King’s legendary catalog. The LP
captures the raw intensity and emotional depth that made King a
major influence on generations of blues and rock musicians, including
Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Jeff Beck.
