According to his biographer,
Charles Sawyer
, this is
King
's personal favorite among his recordings. Unlike most of his albums from this period (which are mostly collections of singles), this was recorded in one session and takes him out of his usual big-band setting, using only bass, drums, and piano for accompaniment. The result is a masterpiece: a sparse, uncluttered sound with nothing to mask
's beautiful guitar and voice.
"You Done Lost Your Good Thing Now"
(its unaccompanied guitar intro is a pure distillation of his style),
"Mr. Pawn Broker,"
"Someday Baby"
(R&B Top Ten, 1961),
"Walkin' Dr. Bill,"
and a great version of
"Drivin' Wheel"
are highlights. (Out of print.) ~ George Bedard
