I guess Dickies Arena replaced the need for this arena. But I'm bummed nevertheless. We saw BB King and U2 together here back in '87. 🎸

Me preguntó que criterios utilizó #iOS para decidir que quiero leer la #traducción de #BBKing al japonés.
No creo que sea por uso reciente, los teclados que más recientemente he utilizado para escribir son el #catalán y el #árabe.

I needed a live performance from "the Bird" to remember what a great song this classic from The Time (written by Prince) actually is.

Riding With The King
#bbking #ericclapton #ridingwiththeking #blues #bluesrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky The album brings together two of the most influential guitarists in the history of rock and blues -- the King of the Blues and Slowhand. Yea, the album was a commercials smash -- double platinum and winning a Grammy -- but it was also a personal project for Clapton who had wanted to record with his idol ever since they met at the Cafe au Go Go…

B.B. King, Live at the Regal, 1965 on ABC Paramount
Recorded live at the Regal Theater in Chicago in 1964, and released by ABC Paramount (in the US) in 1965. Fantastic live blues album and a must have.
It was a cold, raw day in traditionally windy Chicago on November 21, 1964, but hundreds of people found a quick way to warm up! There were the lucky ones who crowded into the Regal Theatre where an old favorite—B.B. King—generated his own brand of heat via his guitar, his band, and his great blues songs.
— Rick Ward
My copy—via uDiscover online—is a 2015 reissue on Geffen labels, pressed at United Record Pressing. I’d love to have an original pressing but this sounds pretty good.
