@ijfox87 The tempo is between 78 and 82bpm. The End of the song pushes up to around 82 bpm, but most of it around 79bpm If you're planning on practicing it, go with 79.
I saw him perform live a couple of years ago, it was amazing. He's still got it. I'm so happy I had the opportunity to see a legend play. And he's incredibly funny too. I think he's still playing shows. anyone who hasn't seen him play and appreciates his music and his talent should make the effort to. It's incredible that he's still playing after all these years. That's passion.
i would love to here this song off an album, remember those, i wished i had stated collecting them. If anyone out there has albums till, holdo n to them, let yout kids listen music at its best. The scracthing of the needle, mmm, nothing like it.
this song is in my personal opinion the best B.B. has ever done, and i love the blues. it's got such a beautiful and luring bass and beat and the guitar just tops it all off, of course.
I'm leaving a comment, since this vid needs more. Really, more people should listen to this. It's in an total different league than current shit on MTV.
