If you don't know who BB King is, go find out. As a start, he was the first really innovative electric guitarist, taking T-bone Walker's stuff and running with it. When Rolling Stone ranked the greatest guitarists of rock music of all time, BB finished third, behind a couple of guys named Hendrix and Allman. You've never heard a rock guitar solo that didn't have some BB in it.
Travel well, blues man.
BTW, BB is for "Blue Boy", his real name is Riley.
Oh, and if you're learning about BB, you need to know about his "wife", Lucille.
BB King telling President Obama to sing ... and he does: Youtube Even the POTUS obeys the King.
