Elvin Bishop Joins Shirley King On A Brand New Single Image
Word has already begun to spread all over the world that Blues royal, Shirley King, daughter of legend B.B. King, is about to release a new album that features an amazing cast of blues musicians. Anticipation for Blues For A King, the forthcoming album, is riding high, and now eager fans are about to get their first taste of what's to come with the release of "I Did You Wrong." One of the album's smokin' hot original tunes, "I Did You Wrong" features none other than Rock Hall Of Famer, Blues Hall Of Famer and founding member of the iconic Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Elvin Bishop! Together, Bishop and King create a quintessential blues ballad, kicking off with Bishop's ultra sleek guitar that blends perfectly into King's powerful vocals. For blues purists, it doesn't get any better!
Listen below!
The song is a highlight on King's incredible new album, Blues For A King, which crosses musical genres from blues to rock to soul and back again. Even next to such high wattage guests as Joe Louis Walker, Robben Ford, Junior Wells, Pat Travers & Elvin Bishop, King absolutely shines as she performs spectacular version of the blues classics "Gallows Pole" and "Hoodoo Blues Man" as well as the soul hit "Johnny Porter" (originally by The Temptations) plus two songs by British rock band Traffic, "Can't Find My Way Home" and "Feelin' Alright?." The album closes with a powerful version of Etta James's unforgettable "At Last," which signals that, at long last, Shirley King is finally getting the attention and recognition she so richly deserves.
Blues For A King will be available on both CD and vinyl starting June 19 from Cleopatra Blues, a subsidiary of Cleopatra Records, Inc.
