Brian Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) B.B. King was one of my father's favourite jazz/blue musicians. He actually went to see/listen him close up several times. Rest in Peace, Mr. King! Edited May 17, 2015 by Brian 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TJB Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 B.B. King was one of my father's favourite jazz/blue musicians. He actually went to see/listen him close up several times. Rest in Peace, Mr. King! I saw him at Westbury Music Fair on Long Island. The venue has a revolving stage and I was three rows away. My wife got the tickets for me and wound up enjoying it as much as I did. In addition, Ruth Brown and Bobby "Blue" Bland were opening acts. Sadly, they are gone. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
