Review by Danielle Spalding

BB King’s Anthology 1962-1998: A Blues Beast That Won’t Quit Alright, buckle up. This ain’t no soft review where I sugarcoat stuff. BB King’s Anthology 1962-1998 is a gut-punch of raw emotion, grit, and guitar wizardry that’ll slap you awake if you’re sleepwalking through life. Released in 2004, this double-disc monster spans decades of Delta Blues and Texas Blues gold, with tracks from labels like Geffen Records, Chronicles, and MCA Records. It’s not just an album—it’s a time machine into the soul of one of the greatest bluesmen to ever walk the earth. Let me break it down for ya. First off, “The Thrill Is Gone.” Oh man, this track hits harder than a freight train at midnight. You know why? Because BB doesn’t just sing about heartbreak; he lives it. Every bend of Lucille (his guitar) screams betrayal, pain, and resilience all at once. When he belts out those lines—"The thrill is gone, it's gone away from me"—you feel it deep in your bones. Like, yeah buddy, we’ve ALL been there. That cold shoulder moment when love walks out faster than you can apologize. And yet, somehow, BB makes it sound… majestic. Heart-wrenching but beautiful. If you don’t get chills hearing this, check your pulse—you might be dead. Then there’s “Every Day I Have The Blues” (Live At The Regal). Holy smokes, talk about owning a stage. Recorded live, this cut proves BB wasn’t just phoning it in back in the day—he owned every damn inch of that venue. His voice cracks and growls like gravel under boots, while his band locks in tighter than a vice grip. This isn’t music—it’s survival. He turns something as simple as having the blues into an anthem. Ain’t nobody else who could pull that off without sounding cheesy. And let’s not forget deeper cuts like “Why I Sing The Blues,” which slaps you with truth so hard you might need a nap afterward. Or “Sweet Little Angel (Live At The Regal),” where BB reminds us he didn’t earn the nickname “King of the Blues” by accident. Dude knew how to make every note count, whether he was wailing on Lucille or crooning lyrics that hit like a sledgehammer. Here’s the kicker though—this anthology ain’t perfect. Some tracks drag a bit, and sure, some remixes feel unnecessary. But honestly? Who cares? This is BB Freakin’ King we’re talking about here. Even his B-sides hit harder than most artists’ best work. So what’s my final take? Simple: this record is required listening if you’ve got ears and a heartbeat. It’s messy, emotional, and real—just like life itself. Listening to BB is like sitting around a campfire swapping war stories with someone who’s seen it all. Except instead of telling tales, he’s shredding riffs and singing straight into your soul. You wanna know what’s wild? BB once said, “I wanted to connect with people.” Well, mission freakin’ accomplished, sir. Now go crank this bad boy loud enough to rattle the neighbors. They’ll thank you later.
