something is wrong when a true master of music dies and people make a bigger deal of others who used the basic music the master created to enhance their music careers..his riffs are heard in hard rock, mo-town, Michael Jackson, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Steve Ray Vaughn to name a few...I grew up listening to BB King in jukeboxes and home record players..his guitar playing stood out in every song..you knew ir was BB King when he played in the song.. the world has lost a great legendand there will never be another like him. His place in the music world will be remembed forever. He and Lucille can never be duplicated. RIP my greatest hero. RIP.
