RIP indeed. One of the greats.
Ben E King went a couple of weeks ago, now BB King. Carole King must be getting nervous.

I saw BB King play at the Gosport Music Festival 20-odd years ago. Truly a great. Who is going to play with Lucille now

There aren't that many axemen that you can tell whose playing just by listening to a few bars.
He's one of 'em though! The dude's even got a note scale named after him.
This one's from sing sing jail

Re: The King is Dead
If BB King ain't on your next your next show dude, I'm coming to get you CK! The man was a colossus and I watched that snippet from the Sing Sing jail and unashamedly cried.......not even in a manly sort of way, I bawled! Total genius and master of the axe and irreplaceable.......The Cincinnati Kid wrote:There aren't that many axemen that you can tell whose playing just by listening to a few bars.
