The Thrill is Gone. RIP B.B King
 

B.B.King Has died at 89.The king of the blues.A great bluesman always great listening to him play and sing.Long live the king.

One of my top three artists of all time. I would go to see BB every chance I had. In the last twenty or so years I could see him slowly failing, but I was never disappointed.

I've known this day was coming for quite while and he had a good run at 89 years old, but still is it so sad.

Long live THE KING.

He and Lucille will be greatly missed.

R I P B B King

He will be missed. I went to a concert 20 years ago in Santa Rosa,CA, and even then he had to be carried on and off the stage in a chair - but the music was still great.

I saw him once in Boston at a place called Paul's Jazz Workshop. They had a 8" platform for a stage and I was in front row of chairs 6' away from BB. Great show. I saw him in Bangor Me a few years back and he was still a showman but had lost a lot of his guitar execution and relied heavily on back up band. Still glad I saw him again.
