    This generation is gone. This is the real blues right here, and I don't know if its ever gonna come back. Trucks and Gary Clark shine bright though.

    Every guitar player in the world should watch what is guitar playing. Every singer in the world should listen to THE VOICE. In a nut shell, it is Freddie King.

    I agree with you. I was raised in London UK and saw Freddie perform with Clapton, Ron Wood, etc in July 1976. Nobody onstage came close to Freddie. The voice, the stage presence.
    I recall when Sonny Boy Williamson went over to jam with The Yardbirds, Stones ..he said "'These Brits think they play Blues..they sound like shit!"'. I saw Otis Spann in London. What a voice.

    • @pabloperez4063

      Sonny would say that in 1963. Some years later, he would feel ashamed for having said these words, simply by watching Eric play... And since 1970, the way he sang

      You are correct, yet, Eric Clapton is a three times inductee to the Rock &Roll Hall of Fame, and is always listed well above Freddy King in the greatest Guitarist of the Rock Era. Pale people are just hypocritical, machievellian pieces of sh*t.

      I also love Freddie, and he is no doubt the complete package. However, that said, if I had to vote for Blues guitarists worthy of the moniker the Orbison of the Blues (ergo superlative vocal abilities) I'd lean towards Magic Sam and Otis Rush

      Dr. H In 1972 he would be one of the greats, I suppose but today his playing does not sound remarkable, things have moved on. Freddie Kings voice is certainly one of the best blues voices I have heard, however. Everybody has a favourite bluesman and Freddie comes from an enormous pool of great blues men to choose from.
