Indeed-R.I.P. One of my first albums was Live At The Regal. He was so influential as a guitarist especially for the English blues crowd of the 60's. Saw a couple of years ago and maybe a bit less than stellar so late in his career--I only wished I could have seen him in his prime. A definite 'one and only'. Regards

I got to see (live) Freddie King, Albert King and BB.  First time I saw BB was in '70 I think?   He was quite the professional and seemed to be a truly humble man.  I always liked him.  He was born the same year as my dad (who is gone also).  One of my favorite albums by him was Indianola Mississippi Seeds.  Live at the Regal was great also. I was listening to it a month or two ago.

With respect, Tubenit
