What a tremendous loss. A pioneer has passed, like the toppling of a ancient Redwood it leaves a hole in the sky illuminating its magnificence. RIP Riley
feel your way back the day before

Time to pull out Live in Cook County Jail. May have to find a copy of Live at the Regal.
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

I love blues guitar, and B.B. King was truely one of the greats.
My fav local dj played a long set of bb tunes followed by some buddy guy tunes. Was a great soundtrack to my friday evening commute.
Sad to say i never caught him live.

I was lucky enough to see him in Richmond, VA in 2013
