    All Music Guide Review

    An imperfect but nevertheless impressive four-disc overview of King's greatest hits, The King R&B Box Set contains signature hits from the likes of James Brown, Hank Ballard, the Five Royales and Little Willie John. Many essential items are here, but the sequencing is too scholarly to make the box itself essential. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
