About Indianola Mississippi Seeds

Amazon.com In the late '60s and early '70s, B.B. King made a series of albums in Los Angeles using rock-world ringers and session players as ABC sought to replicate the chart success of "The Thrill Is Gone." These recordings are mostly dispassionate filler, but this album is an exception. Produced by Bill Szymczyk and featuring guitarist Joe Walsh, pianists Carole King and Leon Russell, and drummer Russ Kunkel among its players, B.B. delivers minor classics in the stirring "King's Special" and the hard blues "Until I'm Dead and Cold." He also takes his only recorded turn at piano, vamping briefly through a flippant croon he calls "Nobody Loves Me But My Mother (And She Could Be Jiving Too)." --Ted Drozdowski Product Description Joe Walsh, Carole King and Leon Russell join B.B. on this 1970 pop style blues album. Features Nobody Loves Me But My Mother; Ask Me No Questions; Until I'm Dead and Cold; Chains and Things; Hummingbird , and more! Review Not once during his immersion in the pop waters here does Riley B.'s commitment to blues flag. Never far from his mind are the hometown "seeds": church choirs, plantation work, prized recordings of Charlie Christian and Lonnie Johnson, the enduring virtues of humility, inner strength, and generosity of spirit. Leon Russell and Carole King are among several musicians skillfully helping out on this absorbing set of originals and Russell's "Hummingbird." Initially released in 1970. -- © Frank John Hadley 1993 -- From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
