Title: I Used to Be Down Artist: Little Freddie King Label: Madewright Records Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 195269348632 Genre: Blues
GUT-BUCKET BLUES MASTER Little Freddie King, he used to be down but his fans have raised him up. He moved out of his run-down apartment in a deteriorating neighborhood and moved to Musician Village, located in New Orleans upper 9th Ward. His domineering wife who shot him once has long since gone to her eternal rest. He got rid of his rickety bicycle and bought a new two wheel Cadillac, an electric bike (EV). It is easier on his 84 year old legs he says. His tormented ulcers have healed and no more headaches, only an occasional visit from "Arthur"... arthritis that is. Keeping busy playing his guitar and a few gigs is his dose of blues medicine that keeps him moving forward. Like a fine wine, this collection of songs is the best yet because they have aged. - "Wacko" Wade, MadeWright Records Jan 2025
