This is BLUES power.

A brilliant clip of Albert King performing "Blues Power" in New York in 1970.

Albert seems to start the solo in A rather than Ab (even the legends got it wrong sometimes!). He recovers smoothly and delivers a fantastic guitar solo packed full of his signature licks and crazy microtonal bends we all love.

The drop in dynamics in the second half is also worth noting - as Albert rolls off the volume of his Flying V and applies a more delicate touch to the strings.

To me, this is THE SONG that defines the New Blues.

He looks like he needs a towel. + The lighting guy needs to go easy on him.
