'''''Sweet Black Angel''''' is an album recorded by blues pianist [[Pinetop Perkins]] and released in 1998. The title track is a cover of [[Robert Lee McCollum|Robert Nighthawk]]'s 1949 "Black Angel Blues (Sweet Black Angel)" . That track was based on [[Lucille Bogan]]'s, "[[Black Angel Blues]]" from 1930 (covered by [[Tampa Red]] in 1934 with the same title, and recut by Tampa Red in 1950 as "Sweet Little Angel.") [[B. B. King]] later covered "Sweet Black Angel" as, "Sweet Little Angel", in 1956.<br />
<br />
The last track featured Perkins playing a boogie on acoustic guitar and remarking on the apparent clumsiness of his finger work.<br />
