“Blues Summit is the thirty-third studio album by B.B. King released in 1993 through the MCA label. The album won a Grammy Award in 1994 for Best Traditional Blues Album.

It is the first of three duet albums in King's studio album discography. Unlike Deuces Wild and 80, all the guests come from the blues and R&B scene. The only song which is not a duet is the original "I Gotta Move Out Of This Neighborhood", which segues into "Nobody Loves Me But My Mother" (originally from Indianola Mississippi Seeds). All songs feature the B.B. King band of the era except for "Playin' With My Friends" (the only other new song on the album) and "You Shook Me", where the accompaniment comes from the Robert Cray Band, plus "Everybody's Had the Blues" featuring Joe Louis Walker's band.”

 

Digging further back into 1994 this week, with this Grammy winning classic from the late great BB King.

Plus new releases from The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Chris Cain, Parlour Greens and Connoly Hayes.
