Another Steller Release

Posted Saturday, August 27, 2011 by audiofan The sonics are the same as on its predecessor (see "Getting Ready"), but I favor (slightly) the song selection on "Texas Cannonball"- the intensity is still there, but by the time he cut this second album (for Leon Russell's Shelter label) King just seems to feel more "at home" and relaxed. The music, however, burns brightly, and QPR's pressing reveals the sound to be as complex, beautiful, and involving as the surreal cover shot.

Killer King

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, August 20, 2011 by audiofan This classic blues album has never sounded this alive, warm, articulate, and inviting. QRP has done lovers of the blues - indeed, all of us who love music with real soul and feeling, a tremendous service with this title and its follow-up, "Texas Cannonball". Both could almost bring the dead back to life, such is the passion, feeling, and love of life imbedded in these dead-silent grooves. For the age of the recordings, these re-issues are state-of-the-art examples of how to press first-rate vinyl - one just can't realistically ask for more. Two words: Buy. Now.
