recorded in memphis in 1972 and released in the fall of that same year, 'i'll play the blues for you' was a typically brilliant mixture of pile-driving blues and hot memphis soul grooves. producers allen jones and henry bush kept albert king contemporary while simultaneously emphasising his inherent strengths. the result was one of albert's best albums. enhanced by 24-bit remastering by joe tarantino, four previously unreleased bonus tracks, and newly written liner notes by music journalist and roots music historian bill dahl, this reissue not only spotlights one of the most entertaining and influential blues recordings of the 1970s, but also underscores the album's enduring nature four decades after its original release.
