My heartfelt sorrow for the greatest bluesman ever!
I saw him in concert in the UK, about 25 years ago. He was an absolute showman.
His distinct sound and playing style, were a delight to listen to.
R.I.P. B.B. King.
Rip how very sad..beyond talented and an end of an era
A true legend is lost. He was a magician with Lucille.
I was fortunate to catch one of his last shows in Florida over the New Years. We have lost a magician and a beautiful soul. He has truly touched many with is music. Now, he is in heaven and the angels are all singing hallelujah. The Thrill Is Gone here on earth, but he will forever be in our hearts. God Bless BB. May you rest in peace.

The thrill is truly gone. RIP. BB KIng and Lucille.
what a loss. a great musician.
Sweet Home Chicago won't quite be the same. Many memories.
A great musician and a wonderful man. I had the honor of meeting him last year.
RIP beautiful Mr. King
I was lucky to have seen him perform. He went on tour with Etta James when I had saw him in concert.
We saw perform him some years ago. It was one of the most unforgettable, emotionally stirring concerts I have seen. Sad of his passing, but his music lives on in our house.
B.B. King is gone and the world is a smaller place. He'll be missed, but remembered forever.
Everyone knows "the thrill is gone," but my favorite line has always been, "Nobody loves me but my mother, and she could be jivin' too..."
R.I.P.
saw him perform in 08 and he handed one of my nephews a guitar pick. And his music will live on and on song he did with Clapton he said he'd play Lucille till the day he dies
I define nothing. Not beauty, not patriotism. I take each thing as it is, without prior rules about what it should be.

one of my favorite performers. I saw him 3 or 4 times in concert dating back to the mid-70's. A consummate performer and a true blues legend. RIP BB, the thrill is gone.

I can't even count how many times I've seen him. My mother has always loved his music and of course it has passed down to me. He is a rarity and will truly be missed. There is no one like him, his sound so distinct. I can't think of a song he has made that I haven't loved.
RIP
B.B you never lost your edge and you will be missed. RIP
The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you....
BB King
I agree so said and will be missed, I saw B B King ?play with Gary Moore ?in London a few years ago and then 6 months later Gary Moore passed away...
The other week was only talking about that gig ..? and I still got the poster. ...
An amazing talent. The world is a sadder place without him. May he and Lucille rest in peace.
