OT: RIP BB King

Post by Kegbelly »

I know this is off topic but forgive me. BB King was one of my favorite artists. He could wring more emotion out of one note than anyone out there. I've seen him in concert several times, and several years ago got a chance to go backstage and into his trailer after the show and meet him in person and chat with him for a few minutes, and he autographed the pick guard on my '60 reissue Les Paul (the lower left photo) and he gave me one of his picks. For a wannabe blues guitarist It was quite the experience. RIP Mr King. The thrill is gone.

The Blues never sounded better than when BB was playing. Sad day indeed Keg!

B.B. King For sure one of the best, First seen him in Germany in 1970. Was a one of a kind... Now S.R.V. and him are up there jamming away again. R.I.P.......
