B.B. King Health/Legal Problems
« on: May 10, 2015, 01:13:43 PM »
Apparently B.B. King is not doing well. The article and video make me sick. It's a shame that this great person and musician has to live out his last days like this.

I knew about his health issues but didn't know about this legal mess. Hopefully it's not actually his last days and he recovers and moves forward from this.

Unfortunately, if he's in hospice, we're looking at the end game. But he's had an extraordinary life in which he's made great music and brought joy to many. We should all be so lucky.

I attended his very first UK appearance at the Royal Albert Hall Tuesday 22nd April 1969. I reviewed it at the time for a soul magazine!
