RIP B. B. King

America has lost one of its greatest musicians and I have lost one of my greatest friends. #BBKing pic.twitter.com/GbGj7vxDwv

Your author lived in Jackson, Mississippi for a few years and had the great pleasure of hearing B.B. King play live there. He was most certainly one the greats. His influence on the blues and blues musicians will live on for generations.

We leave you today with his duet with Tony Bennett from Playin’ With My Friends (2001): “Let The Good Times Roll.”
