B.B KING & ERIC CLAPTON "riding with the king" cd,2000.
collaboration of two of "blues rock's" two best known artists and this one doesnt dissapoint(even though im not a bluesy type of guy)
we see the pair of them trading guitar licks and vocals like they have been doing it all their lives...ooops,sorry!, i guess they have!
both are in fine form here and B.B especially shows how good he is at some 70 something years of age,
several covers on here from the 1930s/40s by artists ive never heard of and an interesting cover of soul man Sam & Dave's "hold on,im coming"...
theres something on here for everyone from real slow old time blues through to real raunchy rock & roll blues.
nothing on here i dont like, but at the same time theres nothing i can say i love neither, just an all round good solid album of blues by two of the best in the business!
oh yeh, interesting to note that as youre listening to the album you hear BB and his guitar through one speaker and Eric through the other which gives the impression that these guys are sitting opposite eachother playing/jamming the blues
rating: 2.0

I've said before, Tony was never one of my favorite crooners. But off the top of my head, he'd probably come in the
top 10. This compilation is good enough for a love rating. His first 20 years are covered here. Well maybe not
covered, but with a thin veil. A lot of albums put out in those years, 52-72. The year 1972 was the end of Tonys
contract with Columbia, thus a nice double album compilation was in order. Even surprised me with nine love tracks
of the 20. Have to side with most in that I Left My Heart In San Franciso was his best track ever. Not sure which of
these tracks were actual hits, other than that one. Gotta be some filler in here. Two tracks I don't care for at
all. Can't believe the man is still going after 60 years in the business. Haven't cared for much he has done lately,
but I think he has paid enough dues for any accolades he may receive. Carry on Mr. Bennett.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - Sing You Sinners
Best Track - I Left My Heart In San Francisco
The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gray
The glory that was Rome is of another day
I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan
I'm going home to my city by the Bay
I left my heart in San Francisco
High on a hill, it calls to me
To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars
The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care
My love waits there in San Francisco
Above the blue and windy sea
When I come home to you, San Francisco
Your golden sun will shine for me
