This collection is truly some of his greatest hits. My favorite is Hideaway. Who could have a real blues collection without Freddie, and if you own only one CD of his, this is it.
This CD really captures the greatest of Freddie King. A wonderful collection of songs all on one disc.
This white-boy has been schooled, and it was worth it. All I can say is I learned a thing or two.
There are several great versions of this song (John Mayall), but this was hands down the best version I had heard yet. I heard the Freddie King version of "Goin' Down" (a classic I heard performed first by Jeff Beck back in 1971)on Pandora Radio.
I thought I was an educated listener of all music types, but I had never actually listened to anything he had done before other than "Hideaway", or at least I had thought that I hadn't heard these tunes before. I found "Freddie King" - Ultimate Collection on Amazon.
This collection lives up to it's name. Freddie King is the King.
It is a favorite.
If this is your first freddie king cd, this is a great collection.Freddie had a major influence on many of the newer Blues players.
I had been looking for a good compilation of Freddie's music for a while. This one does the trick. This really is the best of his earlier work.
