  • Description

    First time of release - Deep Digs in association with Elemental Music and Zev Feldman present this limited-edition deluxe digipak CD.

    In France: Live at the Nancy Jazz Pulsations Festival (1977) is a previously unissued live recording from the legendary bluesman B.B. King captured by the ORTF (French Radio and Television Office) in France on October 7, 1977 and released on producer Zev Feldman's Deep Digs label in partnership with Elemental Music and INA France.

    This limited-edition is packaged with an extensive booklet containing rare photos by Thierry Trombert, Val Wilmer, Jan Persson, and others; plus, liner notes by the acclaimed French author Jean Buzeline; and testimonials from fellow blues icons who knew or were inspired by B.B. King.

    This blazing full-length concert recording offers a rare look at the great blues singer-guitarist's powerful working band of the era.

    For those who think they know B.B. King's music, In France will arrive as an unexpected revelation, and a stirring testament to the greatness of one of the most iconic blues guitarists and singers of all time.
