The story behind

The song Woke Up This Mornin' by B.B. King is a perfect example of the essence of the blues. At 1:44 in length, this piece captures the experience of waking up with a sense of unease, a recurring theme in the genre. King's performance is characterized by his distinctive guitar style, which combines bent strings and bright vibratos, elements that have become iconic in his music. The production was handled by Johnny Pate, who managed to highlight the intimate and emotional atmosphere of the song, allowing King's voice and guitar to shine through strongly.
