Freddie King The Beat 1966 (2014)

Freddie King harddriving and perhaps driven was only 42 when he died on December 28 1976 The intensity of the performances in this video suggest an artist who burned at full throttle every time he played Guitarists as diverse as Eric Clapton and Jerry Garcia have cited King as a formative influence Most of the clips in this collection come from a unique time warp a fleeting moment when Southern RampB collided with mid60s Mod and rendered a show called TheBeat Freddie King was 31 at the time of TheBeat playing and singing in prime form This video collection presents all of Freddie Kings appearances The DVD concludes with three tunes performed in Sweden in 1973 and shows Freddies artistic growth
