Tired and Busy
Blues for the exhausted — Albert Collins, Aretha Franklin, B.B. King and the genre's most world-weary voices.
Aretha Franklin's voice and B.B. King's measured guitar phrasing fit an end-of-day blues mood. Albert Collins adds a sharper edge without losing the steady groove.
Put it on when the work is done.
