ReviewsRanked #17 in Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums Of 2008 -- "America's most famous bluesman lived his version of the stories in these standards.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "King is front and center, with a killer backing band....King is heartbreakingly intimate on standards like Blind Lemon Jefferson's 'See That My Grave Is Kept Clean' and John Lee Hooker's 'Blues Before Sunrise.'", 4 stars out of 5 -- "He and Lucille are still as one and the guitar licks come exquisite and often.", "Elegiac by intent, the record is awash in poignancy, radiating from the deeply felt guitar and vocal performances of the 83-year-old King and his supporting band and from the carefully chosen material.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The song choices are all outstanding....The songs give King lots of room for his road-weary, half-shouted vocals and bent-note adorned guitar work...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "ONE KIND FAVOR returns B.B. King to the studio setting of the '50s, complete with a true stereo sound and an intimate, first-take ambiance. It's back-to-the-basics B.B., and it's his best album in years...", "One of his strongest in decades....B.B.'s vocals and guitar skills are still top rate."
Additional InformationKing proves that at the age of 82 he can still turn out fiery, energetic music.
