Freddy King My Feeling For The Blues - Vinyl

Blues guitar giant Freddie King became a star in the early 1960s with tunes like "Hideaway" on the King label (no relation), but this 1969 album marks his move to Atlantic, where he updated his sound just a little. The King Curtis-produced set employs heavyweight NYC session cats and adds a very slight tinge of contemporary rock tonality (the occasional wah-wah guitar and electric piano) and funk rhythm to King's classic blues sound, lending a fresh feeling to the likes of Willie Dixon's "I Don't Know" and Ray Charles's "What'd I Say."
