That’s some smooth blues playing, what a voice and , thank you Albert King…that’s right hang in there and be tough, whatever brings us down, we’ll still “be around”.
Awesome. Searing guitar playing aside, he played left-handed, hammered away on a flying-V and was physically a giant aside his musical ensemble. I got all this after watchin' the guy for about five seconds and - yes - I own a copy of Born Under A Bad Sign. LL

Eu não quero de forma alguma desmerecer ninguém! Ninguém mesmo. O mérito é de todos! Mas, na realidade, muitos se inspiraram nele! Stevie Ray Vaughan , entre outros! Show demais!
Albert influenced everyone...you name them... Clapton... Stevie Ray...Jeff Beck..and the list goes on and on....when it came to bending strings Albert was the King...pun intended.....🎸🎸🎸
I got one question. How did this man learn to play with a totally inverted guitar? Even Jimi Hedrix played a right handed guitar strung correctly for a left handed guitar. That is a low E string on top and high E string on the bottom. Albert King's guitar/guitars are srung with the high E on top and low E on the bottom. I thing it leads to his specific sound. Since he plays a Flying V that the body is pretty much uniform but still gives a different tonal quality I wonder what the body of a strat or SG would have sounded like in his hands. But everyone praises BB King but I think Albert King is better and a diffetent Genre of Blues. As far as I know there is Delta Blues, Chicago Blues and Texas Blues. I love Albert King's music from the way he bends those top end strings down instead of up. Everything you do on a guitar makes a different in the tone that comes through the body before the magnets in the pickups sh[t it through an amp. So bending down on the higher strings gives a different sound that SRV can't replicate even. Close but not quite. I play bass with a pick. Also play with fingers but totally two different tones. I usemost of the time down strokes. If I am doing triplets i use alternet picking. There are a few songs that I alternate pick on 8th notes but it rare. Bass is different than guitar. On bass you can hear the different tones from alternate picking. For example you get DA da DA da DA da DA da alternate picking. Down picking its DA×8 in a bar. This man is a musical genious. His own sound and style. As for the sweat? It hapoens pouring your heart out on stage.
It's pretty easy to learn upside down, probably just as easy to learn the regular way, the only issue is at first it's confusing watching a lesson or whatever with someone playing the regular way, and figuring out how to play it upside down, but it doesn't take long before you don't think about it anymore and it's no longer an issue. The other problem you face is that some chords are impossible to play upside down, so you're forced to play some chords with a note or two missing that your fingers can't grab.
