BB King - 80

Legendary master bluesman BB King celebrated his 80th birthday in 2006, and his birthday present back to his fans was an all-star collaboration on some of his best known, and least known cuts.

The album 80 includes almost inevitably Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton, but there are more surprising choices of artist, including Gloria Estefan and Glenn Frey turning up on this enjoyable canter though B B King's back catalogue.
