Singin' the Blues

Singin' the Blues is the 1956 compilation album of blues performer B.B. King on the Bihari brothers' Crown label. Among its tracks, the album gathered together five charting singles. "Bad Luck" was the highest charting single, reaching #3 on Billboard's "Black Singles" chart. Other charting singles include "Every Day I Have the Blues" (#8), "Ten Long Years" (#9), "Crying Won't Help You" (#15) and "Sweet Little Angel" (#6).
