I met the blues king. I helped him onto a plane in SLC, UT. I even got to carry Lucille to the plane. I got him a frozen yogurt and he gave me his autograph and a pick from him pocket!! He is so nice. I love him!!!
I recall being blown away when I first heard BB King's music and was even fortunate enough to have heard him play live in concert at least once before he left us. The thrill is not gone Mr King, it remains forever in the gift of music you shared with us. May you rest in peace.
There are even better. You just dont know them. For god sake. 7 billion ppl and you think there's no one? They are shy, they are hiding, they just dont bealive in themselves, they are there. Trust me.
Mellow, cool, sad, full of regret, talented, superb minimalist lyrics, this song just puts you in the groove. The uncoolest dude in the world could be cool just by sitting there and listening to this.
when you see bb live the trumpet dude adds an energy that seriously at times makes the show go to a level that you would have thought was impossible from a group of elderly gentleman lol
I'm from Memphis and first saw B.B. King at the 1st or 2nd Beale Street Blues Festival in 1976. Beale Street wasn't renovated yet and he played on a portable stage from Dixie Rents and there was a chain link fence around the area for the people who did or did not pay. We had had a lot of racial tension since Martin Luther King was killed, especially in that part of town, but not that night. The atomosphere was almost reverant since everyone there loved the blues.
Blues music is about celebrating what you have, what you lost, what you will have again. Either you have the love for the Blues or your don't. Pop in one of the 3 kings (BB, Albert and Freddie) and it all works out man... Keep Bending them Strings B!
The musicians are out there - just harder to find them, these musicians left a legacy thats been picked up in home studios and bars all over the world.
there are better technical players than bb, but for passion he blows them all away, thats why hendrix was also the best because he played with his heart on his sleeve
I found "The Thrill Is gone" right about the time I lost the words "I Love You" somewhere between the sheets of a strangers bed...Thanks Mr. King for getting me through....
Best example that...to be successful in the music industry; you don´t have to be good looking or whatever for that matter. Ever since I was a teenager I liked BB King´s music and specially this version moves my feelings from all those giirls that I spent good times until the Trhill went away
I was watching this when I was 11 years old on an old black and white tv (we didn't have color). He was on a daytime show and I thought "this is the best sound I ever heard" that guitar and the timing...it was hypnotic and this is still one of my favorite all time songs.
my girlfriend just cheated on me, so i listen to the blues alot more mainly B.B. King people say that listening to the blues makes you feel sad, but when you start to hear it and not just listen to it then it makes you feel happy

The thrill has gone from 2 people.
@InfamousYG I'm 37 now, and I started liking B.B. when I was about 14. Good music penetrates any age.

There are even better. You just dont know them. For god sake. 7 billion ppl and you think there's no one? They are shy, they are hiding, they just dont bealive in themselves, they are there. Trust me.
We're coming man, just wait
Being a guitar player myself I just love it when a musician such as BB just out and out cuts loose.!!!!!!
You never get tired to listen to this kind of blues. BB King is great & very talented musician.

bb playing like a legend as usual but damn that drummer was keeping the whole band on their toes lmao
With B.B. King, The thrill of seeing him perform is never gone. Long live the real King!
when you see bb live the trumpet dude adds an energy that seriously at times makes the show go to a level that you would have thought was impossible from a group of elderly gentleman lol
B.B. is definitely the King. He is a genius musician. His biography was such interesting, entertaining reading. He is the man!!!
This guy was a legend. I sadly never got to see him in a concert. R.I.P!!!! We all miss you!!!!
The one and only BB King....and a tight-ass band, too.

May you rest in heavenly peace Mr. King. Thanks for bringing us so much joy with your music through your Blues.
KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OF THE MUSIC
Ich war mit meinem Sohn am Konzert in Zürich bin jetzt 82 Jahre und begeistert
Oh man when the tempo picks up and he starts his solo I couldn't stop smiling
Even though I'm a metalhead, Blues Guitar is still the best. Its why Black Sabbath's self titled album is still their best

OG B.B. King: “Oookay Bet” with a smile on his face🔥🖤

thank' for all you music Mr BB KING . Good jam in paradise with G.Moore, John lee hooker and all bluesmen
Love the way he communicates to the band, rest in peace BB
He and Hendrix added a bit of funk in their music and that's why they sounded great! crossover before crossover was invented in the 90s!chapeau
BB king the kings of blues
I like very B.B king!!
Number one del blues!!
I listen mostly to rap and rock, but damn I love BB King.
R.I.P Máster King :'(
BB couldn't hit a wrong note if he tried. He only knows how to hit the perfect note at the perfect time.
If their is one thing that deppreses me about life is the fact that I'll proably never get the chane to meet this great man while he is still alive
The old Blues boy still gets it done to this day.
I am happy for you. I can appreciate how you must feel to have had the honor of meeting Mr. King.
