Celebrating Albert Nelson (April 25, 1923 – December 21, 1992), known by his stage name Albert King, an American blues guitarist possibly from Indianola, Mississippi, but more likely Aberdeen, whose playing influenced many other guitarists. He is perhaps best known for the influential album Born Under a Bad Sign (1967.)
