In a year full of surprises (Coldplay making a near classic record, Kings Of Leon releases one of the best pure Alt. Rock discs in awhile etc.) here is something you could count on, B.B. King recording the best Blues album of 08. It doesn't break any new ground but the lyrical concepts are fantastic "There is one kind favour I'll ask of you. see that my grave is kept clean." and it keeps a very warm soundscape. Still at the age of 83, B.B. King is the king of blues.
