Growing up I always use to get him & Ben E. King mixed up. "The thrill is gone" has been & always will be a classic. R.I.P. Mr. King.

RIP.... A true legend... a mentor to scores of guitarists, who included Eric Clapton, Otis Rush, Buddy Guy, Jimi Hendrix, John Mayall and Keith Richards.

Sad, I didn't know B.B. passed, anyone know how old was he?

I loved the Clapton/King collaboration CD......pure blues in a bottle........or CD...!

Thanks Rick, One amazing Guy, over decades......With Diabetes, I'm surprised he lived to almost 90. As 90% of Diabetics, die of Heart Attacks, or Cardio related diseases, CDF, et al. Not known for long lifes.
