B.B. King Passes

Post by draclvr »

My favorite musician of all time has passed away at 89. I saw him do his blues licks several times in concert... there will never be another like him.

He was a great guitarist that's for sure. He will surely be missed

Thanks for the link, Drac. He was an amazing guitarist. It says that when he turned 80, he cut back his performances to only 100 a year.

So sad - He was a real legend, and a great musician.

This side of the pond we also lost one of our greats, although you may not have heard of him - Errol Brown, the lead singer of Hot Chocolate - sadly he was only 65 or so when he passed.

I've definitely heard of Errol Brown and Hot Chocolate and listened to them a lot. I hadn't heard he passed away too. Gosh, that's younger than us...
