The king of blues-B.B.King

  Today, I want to introduce to you one of the most legendary figures in the history of the blues - B.B.King. In 2003, the magazine Rolling Stone chose the most representative one hundred guitarists of the world, B.B.King was ranked third, behind Jimi Hendrix and Duane Allman..His guitar, which call Lucille is name from a woman Lucille.
  B.B.King 's  first performance on the stage is in 1947,he had been playing guitar about sixty years.And he had also affect many young people.He has record many CD,like The trill is gone,Every Day I Have the Blues.......
  In 2005,B.B.King is 80 years old,and he started his farewell concert.In the concert , a reporter ask him if  this concert is his final performance on the stage,He response : "One of my favorite actors is a man from Scotland named Sean Connery. Most of you know him as James Bond, 007. He made a movie called "Never Say Never Again"".
  Following is the song The trill is gone, his most famous song.I thought his guitar is fantastic, and vocal is good as well.But it will be great if he focus on his guitar.
