B.B. King’s In London was released in 1971 on ABC Records in the US and Probe Records in the U.K. It features an all-star cast of musicians, with the likes of Ringo Starr (who plays drums on “Ghetto Woman,” “Wet Hayshark,” and “Part-Time Love”) and Alexi Korner (who composed and plays guitar on “Alexis’ Boogie”).
