A guitar god worthy of our worship. Couldn't say it better than Brue.



I saw him live back in the '90s, and the memories of this event still brings up more goosebumps than any other old school musicians I've seen.

I'd heard he'd entered into care (they never actually called it "hospice").
So that's 2xKings so far...

Shame. He was so talented. But then again, at 89, that's a fairly long life lived.

I never got to see him live. I sure wanted to. He was quite influential when I was learning to play. RIP good sir. Heaven has a hell of a band.

And so a music legend passes from this world into the next.

I have a B.B. King boxed set .wma'ed on a thumb drive in my car. I've listened to it quite a bit since I heard he went into hospice care.

B.B. was 89 and a type 1 diabetic (insulin dependent). That's a pretty good run for a blues god.

That song has always made my hairs stand on end.

That song has always made my hairs stand on end.
And that's quite the accomplishment!
