Awesome, thick, fuzzy tone and really articulate, smooth, downright tasty playing.
Masterful!

I happen to love fuzz, I admit that fuzz sounds bad , but in the right hands (meaning probably vibrato) it sounds beautiful. Take the song Satisfaction for example, cool song but fairly ugly guitar sound, compare it to Jimi Hendrix's fuzz guitar on Red House , or even Steve Miller's fuzzed out guitar solo towards the end of Space cowboy, thats what Im talkin about!! Youve got that sound goin on here, I love it

@bernardint Are u the guy that complained about the playing being out of time? First of all the video images u see are from another performance so, of course they are not in synch with the audio. Try listening to it with ur eyes closed. Second, I don't play the exact sequence of licks from Albert's record as he didn't. I saw Albert live several times in the 60s and 70s. He never played the same thing the same way twice. It's called improvisation. I don't care Larry Carlton's music or opinions.

Dude that is the way to bend the shit out of the guitar, makes the note you really want to hear come out, guitar becomes a voice and ting!

This is a brilliant rendition! Forget the begrudgers out there and the fender and Gibson fanatics, you have a great sound, a great voice and it works. That's what Blues is. You come from the heart. Well done lad!

@blakesguitartuition check out "Blues Power." on YT. Albert used to tune down a step and a half! (c#) So he played those huge M3rd M3rd bends on the E string! If U want to play in regular tuning it's possible to make those bends on the B string. Also check out Andy Aledort's Albert King Signature Series.
