Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
B.B. King, probably the most celebrated living blues player, has come a long way from Itta Bena, Mississippi, and this CD illustrates just how far. A series of guest shots by such artists as Van Morrison, Tracy Chapman, Eric Clapton, Mick Hucknall, Bonnie Raitt, Dr. John, Joe Cocker, Marty Stuart, the Rolling Stones, and Willie Nelson, Deuces Wild is far removed from the blues King played in the '40s and '50s. It's more like psychodrama, especially in the case of the Cocker track, "Dangerous Mood." Nobody here, celebrity notwithstanding, is just going through the motions. The album's crass concept is redeemed by, among others, drummers Steve Jordan, Jim Keltner, and Charlie Watts. Although it's an overblown international project with no affinity for the meaning of the blues, the players and their love for the music triumph. --Stanley Booth

- FUN, FUN, FUN and THEN SOME!
I'm sure this was a fun cd for BB King (and friends)to make. If you have any "soul" you can't sit still to the Heavy D jam. I LOVE EVERY JAM! The Van Morrison cut is the BOMB, Dr. John, ALL of them bring something to the table. U can also "hear" the respect they all have for each other. I'm sure they enjoyed making this CD. I think they did a wonderful job and it's a really a well put together cd. THEY ALL GOT DOWN for BB!!! HAIL TO THE KING!!

- RICK SHAQ GOLDSTEIN SAYS: "BB TELLS "HEAVY D" STAY AWAY FROM LUCILLE!"
First let me point out to my loyal "The King Of The World Blues Reviewer" fans: Obviously BB is an all-time icon, but he is not in my personal top 6 electric blues guitarists, nothing negative in that statement, he's just a little too sedate for me overall. Now, moving on to the review. Talk about the word "fun"! If you could use that anywhere, it is here! BB performs "duets" with everyone from Van Morrison, Tracy Chapman, Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, The Stones, Joe Cocker, Willie Nelson, and a few others. ... Read More

- A Fun Album filled with Super Stars
While not the greatest blues album of all time or even the best from B.B. King, this is still a very good blues album that is a lot of fun to listen to. Album is worth the price of admission just for 'The Thrill is Gone' with Tracy Chapman. My favorite version of that song not to mention great cuts with Van Morrison, who in his own right is a great blues sing, Eric Clapton, and more. Just sample the first three cuts and you will be hooked. Sure there are a couple of sinkers on the album, like BB trying ... Read More

- A blues master having fun with some friends
A few years ago, before I moved to Minneapolis, I was in town visiting a friend and was having a hard time finding my way back to his house at night. Because I was trying to find the correct street that lead to the freeway I was having problems concentrating on the radio, so I gave up and left it the radio on the next station to come up on seek. It happened to be the local blues station playing "The Thrill is Gone" by B.B. King and Tracy Chapman (from this album), and a few seconds later the blues had a ... Read More

- Tried to hate it, ended up loving it.
Okay folks . . . take it from me. Buy this album. But please promise me to buy another couple of albums if you like this one, okay?

I don't care if you've new to the blues, have never before heard a BB King song before, or have never seen BB King in concert. This is perhaps the best introduction to the blues as you'll ever hear. From the Rolling Stones to Heavy D, there's something for everybody.

Typically the phrase "something for everybody" means lukewarm acceptance across a wide range ... Read More
