notes:

Indianola Mississippi Seeds is B. B. King's eighteenth studio album.
It was released in October 1970 on ABC Records on LP
On this album B. B. King mixed elements of blues and rock music.
Producer Bill Szymczyk decided to follow up on the success of the
hit "The Thrill Is Gone" by matching King with a musical all-star cast.
The result was one of King's most critically acclaimed albums and
one of the most highly regarded blues crossover albums of all time.

Comment by edlongus SUBS:

Label variant scans added.

"Stagger Lee" is the '2 men arguing' version.

The labels say STEREO, but all tracks except "I Want You To Know" are Mono. That's unfortunate, since "(You've Got) Personality" and "Have You Ever Had The Blues?" could be found in true Stereo here, "You Need Love" here, "Where Were You (On Our Wedding Day)" and "Is It Really Love" here, and "I'm Gonna Get Married" and "Three Little Pigs" here.

...4 a 1972 release, this album is a complete failure 4 me. U don't even get a picture of Lloyd Price on the cover...

Like some of the ABCX 756 pressings the labels show A4 as Hard Time Losin' My Man.
This pressing in the ABCX sleeve.
