ReplyDeleteIm not normaly into blues but i adore him. At such a old age he still keeps up with his younger audiences. His upbeat style one of the things I love about him.

I like how he keeps his songs simple, but still makes them sound good by changing how loud he is playing, and by bending notes.

ReplyDeleteBB really puts on a good show and he seems to be all about the music when he sits to play. He doesnt seem try to put on amazing show just play really good music and it makes for good showmanship. He puts alot of soul and emotion in his music.

I really like B.B. King. He has great flow and even though he plays the same five notes, he makes it work. He changes the style, tempo and dynamics to make it really interesting!!! Good job!! Judy
