Born Under A Bad Sign

 

Albert King began his musical career in Osceola, Arkansas, a river town on the mighty Mississippi.  He spent a decade or more moving around the South and the Midwest before heading to Memphis, where he signed with Staxx Records. 

'Born Under A Bad Sign' is King's second studio album, released in 1967.  It consists of songs recorded during several sessions, with Booker T. and The MGs and The Memphis Horns providing the back-up.  Isaac Hayes also contributed some keyboards and piano on a few of the songs.  







The full album can be found here or here.
