The period from around 1950 to 1965, when B.B. King released numerous recordings on RPM Records and Kent, can be considered not only the earliest but also one of the most glorious chapters in the career of this blues giant. This album, originally released in 1964, is Kent’s ultimate “greatest hits” compilation — the most powerful collection of B.B.’s early masterpieces.

Featuring the title track along with B.B.’s first hit single “Three O’Clock Blues” (which topped the R&B chart in 1951), signature tunes like “Everyday I Have the Blues,” “Sweet Sixteen,” and more — this is truly the best of the best. Presented here in its relatively rare mono edition, the album also features a jacket design that beautifully captures B.B.’s warm and unforgettable smile.
