Albert King - Truckload of Lovin' (LP Utopia 1976 - CD Tomato 1989) - Rare Blues (FLAC 203MB)

With Stax Records, Albert King's home for nine years, having gone bankrupt in 1975, the 'Velvet Bulldozer' and his guitar Lucy were out on the street. As King had been a consistent hitmaker for the legendary Memphis company, not least due to the fluid fusion of Blues, Soul and Funk he had pumped out from there, it wasn't long before the master of the eternal bends and trills found a new label. Kevin Eggers, friend and manager of Townes Van Zandt, reeled the blues master in, and signed him to his Utopia label later renamed Tomato.
