Freddie-King_Taking-Care-of-Business

Deze majestueuze box op LP formaat bevat maar liefst 7 cd’s met 168 tracks: alle studio opnames tussen 1956 tot 1973 van legende en pionier Freddie King. Een legende die een groot voorbeeld was voor latere gitaarhelden als Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Keith Richards en Jeff Beck. Van zijn moordgoede instrumentals uit de Sixties tot alternatieve versies van klassiekers en bijzondere rarities is dit een ramvolle bak elektrische Blues. Inclusief 104 pagina’s tellend LP formaat boekwerk !
