Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Bobby Bland's purr-to-a-scream vocals quickly made him an R&B star in an era when rougher-hewn blues masters such as Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf had fallen from the charts. Bland, a former valet for B.B. King, established himself with both up-tempo workouts ("Farther Up the Road," "I Pity the Fool") and devastatingly subtle ballad readings ("I'll Take Care of You," "Stormy Monday Blues"). Greatest Hits, Vol. One is a generous sampling of the discs that made him a steady seller throughout the '60s. A second CD chronicles his work in the '70s after Duke Records, his longtime label, was sold to ABC. --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews

a great talent5
Bobby blue Bland has always had the goods.this disc showcases his talent.i've also enjoyed the stuff that he has done with B.B.King.a good solid disc.his vocal style is one of a kind.

Mellow Blues5
I enjoyed this collection of Bobby Bland's songs. They are wonderful and give a 360 view of the blues. Everybody has the blues sometimes and if you're lucky, maybe you get that feeling every day.

Oh! What a Singer!5
Isn't this guy one of the greatest singers ever! I love his stuff on Duke Records, and the arrangements are superb.(Im a sucker for horn sections).
"These Hands" is a dear favourite, but lasts just two and a half minutes!

I also have his California album, which is also brilliant.

Is this great artist still performing? If he is, it must be an electrifying experience!
