		Freddy and Sonny's excellent sense of arranging also adds variety to the music, as they move the band into breakdown sections, shift the groove subtly or vary the form from chorus to chorus to help maintain a sense of freshness.
		As great as Freddy's studio recordings are, the experience of seeing and hearing how he tears into his songs and solos in front of a live audience raises the level of excitement even higher.
		Freddy King, somewhat more slowly than some of the others, did begin to make the transition to playing for white rock audiences (and with white rock stars) in the early '70s, leaving King/ Federal to record a series of albums for Cotillion, Shelter, and RSO up till his untimely death at age 42 in 1976.

	Freddie King- Interesting Motherfuckers - Acid Logic ezine
		The first Freddie King can be defined by the mostly instrumental material he recorded on the King/Federal label during the first half of the sixties.
		Freddie comes in with a series of fairly restrained guitar licks, but uses each turn of the chord progression to continually push things up a notch, finally ending on a studio fade.
		Freddie didn’t use the heavily reverbed guitar tone of such artists, but he did have the same goal in mind, which was to start out with a standard melody and then keep in interesting by subtly changing the rhythm and feel of the song.

	Freddie King Album Reviews
		Even though King had become quite influential on a bunch of white blues-rockers, he hadn’t released much interesting material during the years before, but this release caused a renewed interest, so that all three Kings reached something of a popularity peak around the same time.
		While King became somewhat of a hip name around the late 60’s and subsequently focused more on the new audience that adored him by merging blues with tough rock, these early recordings for Federal are probably the ideal starting point if you wanna get an idea and first taste of the man’s enormous legacy.
		Even though King was barely a household name at the time (James Brown was the label’s huge star and wage earner – they released Live at the Apollo, for instance) and the label only released a handful of albums while he was on their roster, this compilation sounds almost bafflingly consistent.

	BLUES ACCESS CD Review: Little Freddie King (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		But Little Freddie King, who spent his first 16 years in Mississippi, arrived in New Orleans almost 45 years ago with his own conception of how to approach playing music, and he’s been developing it ever since.
		Little Freddie King deserves a place at the same table with the artists associated with Fat Possum Records; he’s right in there on that same raw groove.
		Little Freddie is a natural — he rips it up on covers like the Freddie King instrumental "Hideaway" and Lightnin’ Hopkins’ "Rocky Mountain," but this is a performer with a voice of his own, and that elevates this recording to a superior level.

		Hip-O's Ultimate Collection is one of the first truly comprehensive overviews of Freddie King's career, starting with his seminal recordings for Federal and running all the way to his final recordings for RSO in the mid-'70s.
		King also had a smooth soulful voice, evident on great tracks like "Love Her With A Feeling" and "Have You Ever Loved A Woman." And then there were those times when Freddie could just tear it all down and rock your socks off.
		And Freddie King had one of the smoothest voices to be found in the blues genre.

		The most virtuosic blues King, big bad Freddie was a spectacular guitarist as well as a first-rate singer and accomplished songwriter.
		Freddie's vast repertoire of blues classics offers cool hooks, hot solos, and foot-tapping rhythms for the contemporary electric guitarist.
		I recommend this to die-hard Freddie King fans and advanced guitar players but the lack of tablature will probably be a source of frustration to beginners.
