Born in Indianola, Mississippi, Albert King remains one of the most influential blues guitarists of all time and enjoyed a successful career that spanned four decades, with wide critical and commercial acceptance throughout the world. The left- handed blues giant wrenched stinging solos from his trademark Gibson Flying V, informing the sound and style of such admirers as Eric Clapton, Luther Allison, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Taj Mahal and Jimi Hendrix.

Together with Image Entertainment, Experience Hendrix and Reelin' In The Years has joined forces to release the second DVD release in the series Blues Legends. This never before released concert film presents King in top form, tearing through his signature songs at the peak of his career. Blues Legends: Albert King Live In Sweden captures King live on stage in Sweden in 1980 and shows this legendary artist at his incendiary best. With live performance footage of King a true rarity, this stunning 58-minute video presents some of King's greatest songs captured in a live setting. Songs include "Born Under A Bad Sign," "The Sky Is Crying," "The Very Thought Of You," "Cadillac Assembly Line," "Summertime," "Cold Women With Warm Hearts," "As the Years Go Passing By," plus a brief interview segment.
