The sweetest, purest bluesman ever. Instantly recognisable from just one note. His music has saved lives - literally - mine included. A beautiful human being.
The horn player was Calvin Owens a very talented and kind man who was BB King's musical directior for many years and a band leader in Houston. I met him at a Big Band college clinic where he gave me some good advice.
This man is such a huge part of my soul in music. My father introduced me to BB King at an early age.. he is a major part of my dad and I relationship. The blues would not be as big if it weren’t for BB
Ooh my God just so beautiful this intro. Man it's like how can it get any better than this. Makes you give yourself a talking to and reflect on your life. And that's what we all need to do often. If you got play this so you can do it yhen turn B.B. on once a day. Get you a dose.
One of my favourite YT moments. Partially because I get to relive the privilege of having seen these legends twice in 1982. I say 'these' porposely - so many people forget the contibution of the band when they accompany a true legend. What a show they all put on for us. Life is to be lived, but sometimes you really appreciate the fact that someone has captured a 'moment' forever.
BB king was the real example of OF A HUMAN BEING HIMSELF I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND METALLICA AND EDDY VAN HALEN ❤️ AND LES CLAYPOOL AND FLEE WEN I GET TO HEAVEN THATS ALL I WANT TO DO IS JAM TILL OUR SPIRITS BLEED OUT OUR FINGERS
Estoy seguro que tus grandes melodias, llenas de emocion y pasion, seguiran sonando en algun lugar del Universo y en nuestros corazones... Gracias B.B. King...
one of the last shows BB was sceduled to do was here in fort wayne the day of the show they cancelled and said he was ill, and as everyone knows he never made it back out on the road..he will be missed so much here but i'm sure hes up there playing with SRV and Albert King just to name a few.
He had to touch people everywhere he performed maybe change some of there life by just being in his presence... He would give himself completely 100% and you can tell by his playing

What happened to the music industry nothing today can compare.
The sweetest, purest bluesman ever. Instantly recognisable from just one note. His music has saved lives - literally - mine included. A beautiful human being.
He might have been at his peak here. He does not get enough credit for his vocal talents. These are equally as good as his guitar chops.
His guitar has a lot of emotional.
Wonderful sounds I wish I could play like him great great blues man.
That horn to B.B. King has got to be one of the best trade-off soloing exchanges in music history. OMG.

He is absolutely on fire here. Rest in peace with the angels, BB.
Yes sir!!!!
So simple, so good. "It's about the notes you DONT Play"-Miles Davis
Makes you want to cry
I love B.B. covering this Willie Nelson song.
It's a GEM 😍
This man is such a huge part of my soul in music. My father introduced me to BB King at an early age.. he is a major part of my dad and I relationship. The blues would not be as big if it weren’t for BB
The same to me with my mother
I cannot explain in words how much this song makes me truly feel. Such a blessing of musical genius.
great trumpet solo as well!
This makes me just want to climb inside the music and be part of it. There aren't enough superlatives to describe it. Thank you.
He was a phenom and there will never be another like him.

Thank you B.B. King! ...and thank you A.C.L. you are the best music show period.
A genius interprets a genius. Superb.
BB is the GOAT, but let’s give some love to that trumpet player…sweet baby Jesus!!
1993: This episode got me through a tough night after a disastrous date.

Great song with a beautiful melody. BB KIng is clearly in the mood, and plays a deepfelt solo

The absolute best. Loved and still love listening to BB.
It's great to hear Lucille again. So smooth
the sound, the feeling, the good notes, the soul and blues, joy and pain, he sustain : i like bb king's music
If I didn’t know better, I could believe Willie Nelson wrote this song specifically for B.B. King.
Miss you BB!!!

He had to touch people everywhere he performed maybe change some of there life by just being in his presence... He would give himself completely 100% and you can tell by his playing
