Was just reading one of the stories concerning B.B. turning 80 on Friday.
On my trip to Sturgis last month I happened to get to listen to a redone version of The Thrill Is Gone that will be on his new album at release. Clapton and B.B. work together on this classic and it`s awesome.
B.B. is certainly a master of blues and has done a lot for the music world and helped a lot of folks along the way.
Salute to B.B. on his 80th.
