This album was recorded in 1971 during the sessions for the album 'Lovejoy', but remained unreleased until 1986. It contains alternate takes and songs not included in the original release.
Production was handled by Don Nix, who worked closely with Albert King at that time. The record was released by Stax Records as part of their archive series.
The recordings showcase King in his characteristic electric blues style, with his Flying V guitar and deep voice. The album was well received by collectors for offering unreleased material from his most prolific period.
