After 2 years of searching. I found it tonight.

What a WONDERFUL CD -- one of the best.

Just sharing my excitement as I sit here and listen at low levels :)

    What took so long? Is it OOP?

    Either way, great performance and a really good recording, especially when you consider it was from over 40 years ago.

    Im listening to it for like the 4th time right now --

    It gets better and better and better...

    The guitar/sax/keyboard/drums are recorded SUPERBLY - spaced very well.

    The vocals peak out ocasionally when he is singing - but when he talks it is so clear and lifelike it is amazing --

    But I never felt like ordering it online and never could find it in stores and finally found it the other day.

    GREAT CD

    I'm listening to BB King Live at the Cook County IL jail right now on vinyl. I'm not sure what year this was recorded, but it's a pretty good album.
