The Rake

I saw BB close the JVC Jazz Festival years ago...following Ritenour, DiMeola and Coryell. It was a great show...which BB absolutely stole.

He was a great singer and stage performer and it was his limitations that gave him his signature sound.

Interesting. "I don't play no chords.". He said basically the same thing in the Rattle and Hum film. B. B. King didn't need chords.

Deen Ween calls that a frapp

😊😊😊😊😊😊

Can you do the entire live version of blues power by Albert King? I saw that you already have 2 minutes of it in another video.

And that is why he was perfect❤

This guy is the G.O.A.T. In terms of simplifying guitar down to a relatively limited set of tools and options (that suited his particular gifts), then mastering those to the point of achieving literal magic with them.

One of the greatest of all times with the guitar

"I'm not good with my right hand " says the quintessential blues player who influenced many greats. What a humble man.

Nice

For me it's that vibrato. Timeless

I love BB

I'm depressed

BRO WTF I WAS WONDERING IF SOMEONE TABBED THIS. GUITAR COMMUNITY AT IT ONCE AGAIN 🤍⛰️

Early BB sounds almost exactly like this. BB was being honest.

Foi uns dos melhores do blues.

Foi embora mas deixou a boa memória.parabens

👏🏼🎵👏🏼!

Theres only 1 LONNIE, smooth & cool❤😊❤😊

New Orleans Veteran, blues player and legend Lonnie Johnson 🏆🎸

Lonnie, Django, and Charlie Christian were the main sources of inspiration for a one Riley B King.

Gibson, Luceal

Definitely not many players before this....ever hear of Django???

Why ask the question and try ro run ahead of the teacher to appear smarter.. LoL ❤❤❤ King was the Master teacher...

What year is this?

Its called a rake

The Master! So glad I got to see him before he passed away. He walked slow, but played like he was 30. Then met with kids after the show at the front of the stage. What a great man we had the privilege of listening to. Thank you Mr King!

Really depressing that more don't know of this great guitarist who, in the early days, was a Paco de Lucia technician in the blues. Proof: check out Eddie Lang & Lonnie Johnson duets.

Drag that Cotton sack Bubba❤😊❤😊

Therea only ONE LONNIE 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Lonnie GETS ER DONE ❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊

*When BB says it wouldn’t work for anything he would want, he is only saying that it doesn’t fit into his signature BB King style and sound.*

Grande BB

It's always good to have different perspectives. Reading is good. Playing by ear/feel is good.
