How Blue can you get.

Its a bit late I guess but I just found out that BB King has passed away, a truly talented guy. I was introduced to him about 10 years ago, late in life I guess but once I heard that voice I was hooked. I cam from a lifetime of hard rock and heavy metal, so this was a massive change for me.

One of my favorite music video's is the DVD of the concert in the Albert Hall, who would have thought that Mick Hucknall from simply red and Slash from guns n roses would be on the same stage as Mr King, at 84 years old his talent still shone bright.

RIP BB King.

He was the musical father of all the greats of a generation ago and his influence will last forever.

RIP

One of his songs that sadly gets overlooked at times ...

BB King was one of those players who you could recognise after a single note was played. He articulated his emotion through his music perfectly, never over gilding the lily. I for one will miss seeing him play, hearing Lucille wail.
