My favorite BB King song:
Never Make Your Move Too Soon
From the album Midnight Believer



I also have the Duces Wild album. It is a duets album. There are some great duets on it. I was really surprised I liked the Heavy D. collaboration.

I highly recommend "Riding with the King" w/Clapton. There's this one bend BB does during a guitar solo that totally changed my opinion of him as a player ... for the better. And, his singing is wonderful.

He's wunna dose artists that I always meant to find out more about.
The Thrill Is Gone is just absolutely amazing & I wonder sometimes if there are any more songs that he's recorded with as much power & depth.
Unfortunately,
my life at this point ill affords me the time it would take to do the research,
not just for his music, but for anybody else's.

Being an adult wit' responsibilities sux.

The great thing about BB's guitar playing is how expressive it is. He can say more with one note than other guitar players can with a thousand notes. Guitar players would give their left nut to have vibrato like his. The dude's in his 80's and still tearing it up.
