Saw him live years ago and he was great. I wish I knew where the BB King pin he gave me ended up.

In the last month we've lost the singers of "Stand By Me", "When a Man Loves a Woman", and "The Thrill is Gone"

Huge loss--the man could really play Lucille, and he belted out songs with the best of them.

He was a monarch who loved B words,
that's why they called him BB King |

"About 15 times, a lady has said, ‘It’s either me or Lucille.’ That’s why I’ve had 15 children by 15 women.”
