Satisfying Hour Of Blues
ccthemovieman-12 January 2007
This particular show was part of a series presented by the A&E Network where a singer was featured, they take phone calls for requests between songs and the emcee handles that and a short interview here and there.

The best feature about having this on DVD is that you can skip all the talking and go directly to the next chapter each time where each song begins. The music is good, too. B.B. King's voice is getting a bit raspy after all these years but his guitar playing is still excellent and I liked the selection of songs on this disc. Most of them are entertaining, even the slower ones.

The concert really takes off when Jeff Beck enters for a few numbers with B.B. Beck shows a great deal of guitar virtuosity and is fun to watch and the songs are very up tempo.

All in all, a satisfying hour-plus of good blues music that should put you in a good mood.
