bill mann 3rd Feb 2016 | | CD AlbumB. B. King - The Complete RPM | Spotted this one on a 'Ace Records' email. I love BB's real early stuff so this one is a bit too much for me (Money & Musicwise) , having just got the new Jerry Lee Lewis Bear Family box, 18 cds plus 2 books, I'm working my way through it, very very good up to now. Hope the BB is a good un.
