Here is a continuation of my chronological Freddie King posts - 'Freddy' has now become 'Freddie' and he is with a more contemporary and hipper crowd than with his previous musical partners at King/Federal...for which his real fame is mostly based - Signed to the Atlantic/Cotillion label, his 2 albums for this revered company contain some of the greats of the day .
..
On 'Freddie King Is A Blues Master' (1969) we have :
Billy Butler-gtr, Joe Newman, Melvin Lastie & Martin Banks-tpt, KIng Curtis, David Newman & Willie Bridges-sax, James Booker & Gary Illingworth-keys, Jerry Jemmott-bs, Norman Pride-drms.
George Coleman, Frank Wess, KIng Curtis, Trevor Lawrence & Willie Bridges-sax, Ernie Royal & Martin Banks-tpt, George Stubbs-pno, Cornell Dupree-gtr, Jerry Jemmott-bs, Kenneth Rice-drms, Hugh McCracken-hmca.
2 great electric blues albums where Freddie includes some fine covers, some updated classics and some new compositions.
I have played these albums many, many times and still love everything about them ...It's your lucky day ...here are both recordings with full scans ...Enjoy
And...Happy new year to y'all ! ...Cheers

Nice one (or two) Gus thanks. A great way to kick into the New Year. A Happy One to you and all at Chitlins.
Plan to listen to these - and thanks for the other Freddie King's you shared - helped fill out my collection. It's amazing, just as an example, looking at the talent in/on and/or a part of these sessions - which we also see on many of the posts on this blog. You read the credits (as well are known to do)and see Booker, Curtis, Dupress, Lastie to name 4 of the many more listed in/on this and the others!
Thanks and Best Wishes for a Safe, Happy and Healthy New Year
