Good innings 89. RIP

Another true legend gone.

On the Road since 45...that's a long gig...RIP big fella.

 

[Dark Horse Dave]

Saw him in London a few years ago. Great gig.

The thrill is gone.....

Saw this myself the other day. I thought it would have been a big enough loss in an of itself but that's not all. In just the space of a month we've lost three blues legends:
1) Percy Sledge 14 April 2015
2 Ben E. King 30 April 2015
3. B.B. King14 May 2015

R.I. P. to all of them.

 

[Goatboy]

Wow he's gone? Sorry I hadn't heard. Unsurpassed musician and performer. Sorry he's gone and will miss him. R.I.P. Sir. The music up there just got a lot better I think.

Sent via smoke-signal from a woodland in Scotland.

 

[Macaroon]

I hadn't heard this until now, either.......a cruel and sad loss indeed.

Must have been one of the hardest working musicians around who seemed to be forever on the road, one of my favourite old bluesmen....

Thanks, Riley (Blues Boy) King it was a great ride!
