Saw him at the Kool Jazz festival back in the 70's at Royals Stadium. The man put on one of the best shows I had ever seen to that day and one of the best I have seen since. Rest in Peace!

NO WAY!!! Dammit! My favorite blues player gone. RIP BB.

RIP BB. I guess that leaves Buddy Guy holding the torch.

RIP

Buddy Guy is one of the few old school guys left now. I was lucky enough to see Muddy Waters while he was still performing. He was a monster, just like BB, but BB had more talent. BB was one of the best guitarists who ever lived.

Rolling Stone put up a never before published interview with BB from when he was 82 and living in Las Vegas. Great read:

Police: Probe of B.B. King death depends on coroner findings

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Las Vegas police say there's no active homicide investigation of the death of B.B. King, despite claims by two of the blues legend's heirs that King's two closest aides poisoned him.

Homicide Lt. Ray Steiber said Monday that any police action will depend on autopsy findings.

Clark County Coroner John Fudenberg (FYOU'-den-berg) says there's no immediate evidence supporting allegations by a lawyer who says she represents King's heirs.

Daughters Karen Williams and Patty King allege King's business manager, LaVerne Toney, and his personal assistant, Myron Johnson, hastened their father's death.

An autopsy was performed on King's body Sunday, and results of forensic tests are expected to take up to eight weeks.

Fudenberg says his investigation won't delay upcoming services for King in Memphis, Tennessee, and his hometown of Indianola, Mississippi.
