- Review
- Another in Geffen's digital download series, this volume, called Discoveries, collects some of the rarer tracks in B.B. King's sizeable portfolio, including "Night Life," "Eyesight to the Blind," and "Tired of Your Jive," among others, most of which feature plenty of his trademark sharp and brittle guitar runs and his surprisingly flexible voice, making this an interesting glimpse at this iconic blues player and singer. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide
