B.B. King died last Thursday at the age of 89. He was just magical on tour with U2 in 1989. In 1988, B.B. reached a new generation of fans with the single "When Love Comes to Town", a collaborative effort between King and U2 on their Rattle and Hum album.
"I'm no good at chords!" -must be one of the best understatements of the 20th century!
"I'm one of those rebel kind of guys. They kinda, look at me kinda wierd, they say, here he is a 62 year old and look what he's try'n to do!"
I'm more than glad to say I saw him after Rattle and Hum at the Hohentwielfestival (near Singen) in 2004. Thank you for all those many years of music B.B.
And luckily enough his life story is here, filmed in 2012.
