GRAMMY AWARD WINNER!

BEST TRADITIONAL BLUES ALBUM

One Kind Favor, the latest album from the King of the Blues, features covers of old blues songs from B.B. King's early influences. With production by the acclaimed T Bone Burnett, the set revisits the music that influences B.B. in the 1950s, the beginning of his extraordinary professional journey that literally changed the texture of modern blues playing.

Recorded at The Village Recorder in Los Angeles, One Kind Favor is meant to sound like an album recorded in the 50s. To get this sound, Burnett and King replicated the kind of blues band King had back in the day, bringing in some of the greats - Dr. John on piano, Nathan East on stand-up acoustic bass, and Jim Keltner on drums, to name a few. Studio conditions of the time were faithfully reproduced, and the result is a vintage sounding album filled with the songs that influenced King in his early days as an artist.
