He died in 2015. I saw one of his last shows in Nashville at his club.
Damn. He was one of the great ones. I’ve seen him in concert many times, each time was a great night. Thanks, B.B. and hope Lucille is well.
ETA: I probably mourned his passing back then as well.
The last time he performed in Pittsburgh we were there. He played and sang sitting down, but he still gave it his all.
It’s still sad to lose a great.
I fixed the title.
B.B. was great. I saw him at the Count Basie in Red Bank, NJ.
Such a showman. Great guitarist of course.

He placed Weird Al’s Generic Blues in his top 10 favorite Blues songs.
About 2 weeks after Ben E. King. It was confusing at the time for a lot of people.

Mea culpa!
