SINGIN’ THE
BLUES
(1957)
King’s debut
compiled some of
his most successful
singles to date, including four R&B No 1s: “3 O’Clock
Blues”, “You Know I Love You”, “Please
Love Me” and “You Upset Me Baby”. It
may say “Singin’” on the sleeve, but
guitar playing is really what’s going on
as this strong primer for King’s early
work amply illustrates.
Marilyn’s Sweet Dreams
For his second Under-g cover story, Marilyn Manson met writer Chris Heath at a Wolfgang Puck
restaurant in Hollywood and saw the Christina Ricci movie The Opposite of Sex.
