No 3: FREDDIE KING-BURGLAR


Released shortly before his untimely death, Burglar is a perfect encapsulation of Black music in early 70's America. Although predominantly a Blues album, it touches upon Soul and Funk and pays exacting tributes to both.

The guitar on Only Getting Second Best would secure any spot on classic 70's cinema and such tracks only emphasise what a sad loss his death in 1976 was.
