When two of the greatest guitarists in blues history join forces, the result is something truly special. Riding With The King brought together Eric Clapton and B.B. King in 1999 for a collection of studio recordings blending blues classics with contemporary songs — a meeting of kindred spirits who had first shared a stage together back in 1967. The album went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album and sold over two million copies worldwide.
The record showcases the effortless chemistry between Clapton and King as their guitar styles weave together across a set list steeped in blues tradition, featuring B.B. King staples like "Ten Long Years" and "Three O'Clock Blues" alongside beloved standards such as "Hold On I'm Coming" and "Come Rain or Come Shine." What makes the album so enduring is its warmth and authenticity — two masters who clearly relish each other's company, trading licks and vocals with the ease of a lifelong friendship.
