B.B. King - Lucille Talks Back 1975

MCA Special Products' Lucille Talks Back is a budget-line compilation that culls ten highlights from B.B. King's recordings for ABC and MCA in the '70s. Many fans are divided in their opinions of this era, since the production and performances were quite slick, but each album has its moments. Some of those moments are on this collection, which seems to have been chosen at random. Those moments may be enough for the budget-minded listener who only wants a sampler of this era, but most collectors and listeners will find either the original albums or more comprehensive compilations preferable to Lucille Talks Back.

That's not Lucille Talks Back from 1975 which is a fine mid-70's studio album recorded during King's tenure with ABC Records. That LP has never had a proper re-issue but was briefly available as part of an i-Tunes release of the 2012 career retrospective "Ladies And Gentlemen... Mr. B.B. King."
No, what we have here is the 1988 MCA compilation of the same name which, as the AMG review suggests is a seemingly randomly compiled collection of ABC/MCA recordings.

Hey Dr D, thanks for your visit and comment! And, yes, you are right, sorry for this. So I changed it! The link goes to the 1975's album. Thank you. ;)
