He's getting up in years but still one of the greatest.

BB King passed away in 2015. But, I agree with you. He was one of the greatest. Blues Singers.

I remember back in the '60s I was a fan of the British blues rockers. I saw a review in Downbeat, the jazz magazine, saying Eric Clapton couldn't be the greatest blues guitarist while BB King was still around. I hadn't heard of him yet, so I got the album they were reviewing, BB King Live at the Regal, and was blown away. It's still my favorite BB King album and one of the greatest live albums of all time. He was still on the Chitlin Circuit back then, and the banter with the audience and the audience reactions were wonderful. I got to see him live a couple times and he was such a powerful performer when he was at his peak.

+10 Live At The Regal! As expressive and tasteful a guitar player as BB King is, he is even more loved as a singer by me.

There was a group of fans waiting to watch him board his tour bus after a concert. He invited us all backstage. One of my guitars, an Epiphone version of his Gibson Lucillle, was in the green room, and B.B. autographed it for me. I never heard of a star of his caliber offering to meet with fans like that. Amazing.
