Blues Summit
This is B.B. King's most delightful recording of the '90s. He duets with other blues greats, includingKoko Taylor("Something You Got"),Buddy Guy("I Pity the Fool"),Etta James("There's Something on Your Mind"), Ruth Brown ("You're the Boss"), and his dear friendJohn Lee Hooker("You Shook Me"). The peaks come in his guitar shootout with Texas Telecaster slingerAlbert Collinson "Call It Stormy Monday" and his high-spirited run-in withKatie Webster, who steals their performance of "Since I Met You Baby" with her saucy asides.--Ted Drozdowski
