1971's Lovejoy was Albert King's most fully realized attempt to bridge the divide between blues and rock. Although recorded a long way from King's home in Lovejoy, Illinois, the singer and guitarist delivered blistering renditions of numbers like the Rolling Stones' "Honky Tonk Women," Taj Mahal's "She Caught the Katy and Left Me a Mule to Ride," and producer Don Nix's "Going Back to Iuka." Available on vinyl for the first time in over 25 years!
