[Seriously]

I've heard of the name obviously, but never really heard his stuff..... my internet is slow right now , so will check it out at work later.


Whilst we're on the subject of king's, didn't hear a mention on here for Ben E King last week, or did I miss it?

That's true, that one didn't get a mention. 2 of the greats.

He was a true Blues hero!

[Seriously]

I'm not into blues (so far anyway ) , but that youtube vid is very cool

[Strange]

If you want to really understand the greatness of B. B. King slap a copy of Live at the Regal on the gramaphone and prepare to have your ears blown back. That's some awesome shit right there.

I read the title and assumed that you were sad that BlackBerry had discontinued one of their models.

Man I really wanted to see BB King in concert but never got to.

A true great.

That was one of your poorer attempts at humour , unlike this one making fun of your lack of it


.....and the guy's not even cold in his guitar case yet !

[Vincent Vega]

I just saw where B. B. King passed last night. How sad... one of the Greats!
