KING, B.B. - Live In Africa 1974 (DVD)

In 1974, B.B. King brought the blues back to Africa. Invited to take part in the three-day music festival which featured the legendary boxing match between George Foreman and Muhammad Ali, King played before a crowd of over 80,000 Africans and delivered a performance considered by many to be one of the greatest of his phenomenal career. B.B. King filled the night with his raw power, searing energy and heart stopping emotion. This inspiring classic concert, shot by Academy-Award winner Leon Gast (When We Were Kings), even has Ali sitting in the audience. Now this classic footage is available on DVD and an unforgettable night of music lives again.
