This version is, IMHO, the best B B King recorded of this great song. A pity there is not a video of the studio showing the recording session - this may have resolved who the trumpeter(s) were.
@eintags I have this fantastic version of ''Guess Who?'' on a 2CD collection simply called B.B.King - The Best, released in 1998 by Digimode Entertainment Ltd. Virtually NO sleevenote info, but it's one of a series of collections they released by different artists. The B.B. collection has the issue number GP 2035, and I presume it's still available. I hope this helps.
This has to be a close to perfection as you can get. BB King as usual is untouchable and the trumpet player makes his instrument sing too. Thankyou for adding this!
this must be the salvation of humanity afterall

It's a great song and a great version, but I can't listen to that trumpet without thinking of The Laughman, Doug Collins.

Rodrigo, se você tiver encontrado como achar o vídeo, conte para mim, pois também o procuro.
Tenho essa música tocada em vários discos, inclusive um com essa versão, mas também gostaria de ter o vídeo.
Feliz 2010 para você

gmanunta8181 2 years ago 4
I'm not sure but I believe its jazz trumpetist Ernie Royal. Who also played with Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis and many more.
