THIS is blues at its best. I'm sorry, I've heard Clapton, Robert Johnson, Alberta Hunter, Muddy, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Elmore James, Johnny Winter, Johnnie Lang, Billie Holiday, Bessie Smith.....all of the greats and many of the not so greats. But it don't get no better than this. Equal to or near, but nothing better. Willie Dixon, Koko Taylor, Janis, Jimi (yeah, that Jimi), Taj Mahal, Jimmy Page, Mr. Son House..... Nothing's better that guitar, that voice & those luscious strings. Nothing!
it breaks my heart to see the passion poured into music by these forfarthers and legends....only to have the dross that is pumped out today like a bland playdoh.....
one day i'll be able to play as bad ass as this guy can.. but until then im stuck practicing 4 hrs a day with blistered fingers.. god pu the guitar on this earth to relieve the blues of those who play it and those who love it LONG LIVE B.B. KING BABY
From the way its looking so far the future of jazz and blues doesnt look too good because nobody seems interested in taking that baton and carrying on those musical artforms...what a shame.
How can anybody dislike this song....Dang some people are just closed up and need to get the stick out of their rectum and loosen up and feel the groove....dance damnit, dance i said!!!
To my Uncle Joe, who introduced me to the blues while I was still in my crib, who now has dementia and dont even know who I am, I will always love you and I remember all the good times, the back yard bbq's with the blues providing the sound track. I love the blues, thanks to you, always have and always will, and BB is the king, where did the time go...

@IAMKARENROMAN you know i see where you're coming from... but posting that on facebook will not help because i doubt he will see it.... not bitching just pointing out and i'm sorry your uncle has that condition
@PerpetuallyHighPoet, wow, was that really necessary? I figured we had the mature, real music, grown up fans here and we were safe from all the silly profane language found among the youngsters music. Thats serious disrespect
I can still remember the night i bought a rock the size of a golf ball, and i got so paranoid that night that i stashed the damn thing and never found it again (i think my cat ate it cause he was really paranoid that night too) man that pisses me off. Glad those days are over and am doing much better now that i am clean!
This song is very much alive. You can't hate this song. This sounds sooooo good. I love to close my eyes and slowly dance to the beat. I go down when I hear his guitar and back up slow. really good song. LOVE THIS!
b.b.'s up-town version of the blues isn't my fave...but...this is mood, emotion & the pure unadulterated truth...my kingdom for his vibrato and phrasing.
there will never have music like this again... ever!!! This song means alot to a person who has lost the spunk in life because life has caught up with them. Enjoy life to the fullest for ever, and do not let your thrill in life ever leave you!!! You can prevent that!!!
im 13 and if only all kids my age could enjoy such amazing pieces of work that actually take REAL work to create. genius just genius. i love the blues
@MrJbrennan12345 Lmao no my mom play b.b king when i was growing up and still do that's why i love his music so much the blues will help you get out of a fuck up mood and heart break.
we pour this booze and we drink this booze, because we think its yummay. so over the tounge and down the throat to party in our tummay. down the hola bitchola
the magic of BB and lucille did it again , you better believe baby , the thrill is gone and now is for ever , i`m sorry for you baby thank you mr. king the only that never is gonna go is you BB MARTIN ROCA god bless you mr. KING
Its because of humanity we have gone to these lengths and it's up to humanity to change it. We are in a critical moment what are you doing to help your community?
...Herbie Lovelle's drumming instigates this tune's feeling by only hitting on 4 throughout most of this song; while displaying a 16th note feel on the ride cymbal ! Jerry Jemott is punctuating a kickin' bass line. And, Paul Harris' Wurlitzer piano responds to BB's lines. Hugh McCracken provides a repetitive rhythmic statement. And they all build up to the stings long tones. What a song !
little grocery eatin bastards. real music with soul,whats wrong with you people. is it cuz he doesnt say bitch or ho? or is it cuz hes not singing it from a murcielago filled with cash. u need a role model!
@tumiotto1 I feel the same way. Also how could all them dummies elect someone like ZeroBama with all the shadows in his past. Sitting in a church where your preacher puts AMERICA down for TWENTY YEARS.
@ashestohashish Slash's fans has used up all its possible accounts which get closer to his name... Izzy Stradlin is a very good rhythmic guitar player though...
one of the most amazing songs ever written. this man has forgotten more than most of us will ever know about the blues. B.B. King is truly and icon of music.
I met BB in Hong Kong, he signed by business card. He had been banned by Communist Party from playing certain songs at the then new Beijing Hard Rock Cafe, but he was so gracious. I wish I took along a camera.
I decided that I'd get over ex by sleeping with younger, more attractive women, who wanted no strings attached - *#@%ing expensive tho !!! Gr8 song XD
