BB King, born Riley B. King, was an American blues singer, songwriter, and guitarist. He is considered one of the most influential musicians in the history of blues music. With his soulful voice and distinctive guitar playing style, BB King captivated audiences around the world for over six decades.
King's career took off in the 1950s with hits like "Three O'Clock Blues" and "The Thrill Is Gone." His expressive guitar solos and heartfelt lyrics resonated with listeners from all walks of life. Known as the "King of the Blues," he received numerous accolades throughout his career, including multiple Grammy Awards and induction into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Blues Hall of Fame.
BB King's impact on music cannot be overstated. His unique blend of traditional blues with elements of jazz, gospel, and R&B paved the way for future generations of musicians. Whether performing live or recording in the studio, BB King's passion for music shone through in every note he played. Although he passed away in 2015 at age 89, his legacy lives on through his timeless recordings and enduring influence on countless artists worldwide.

In 1982 the Jasmine Label was created producing LPs and Cassettes. The new label initially focused on licensed Jazz and Personality recordings. Later in 1985 Jasmine successfully launched its Country & Western catalogue. 1990 saw the release of Jasmine’s first CDs.

Nothing but the hits! This is a phenomenal collection of the greatest hits of the most popular blues singer &amp; guitarist of all time.This B.B. King compilation concentrates on nothing but his US chart hits between 1951 &amp; 1961 - there is a total of four No. 1s and a total of 17 tracks that made the Billboard Top 10 out of the 24 selections.

Such was his popularity that many of these hits were both sides of the same single. B. B. King was always a good buy for the jukebox industry because he had a reputation for usually releasing singles with two equally great sides and they are all here.
