If you disliked this video or this man, you have no taste in music or in people. Greatest musician to ever play the blues and a great person. Never heard one bad word about him. Lived to play the blues! No one can compare to BB King!!! Rest In Peace BB
He was on the Road 75% of the Year back then, sad about his many kids but what can you do when your life is the Blues and you are the best of all time. I was there and in Tears I was so moved by his performance and the Band was superb.
@@NickBird96 get your facts straight before you attempt to disrespect his legacy. He was actually infertile, and CHOSE to raise 15 children as his own. This man was a King amongst men in every way. As somebody who picked up a guitar because of him, I had to respond to this.
Gutted I never went to see him live he was always touring I always put it off thinking I'll catch him next time round... It never came. Guys go watch your older hero's now because you might not get the chance again as alot of them going now.... R. I. P BB. King.
36 dislikes, hard to understand. I was 17 the first time I saw him live in 1989. I just fell in love right away, the best, funniest, loveliest person ever to walk this Earth
Nice, I was around 18 when I first saw him live at the POC in Eindhoven and it blew me away. I think it was 1989 as well. A similar line up as in this video I guess, for sure I remember the trumpetist.
Amazing how fast and then in tune he sets the new string. I had the chance to see him several times playing live. If G' exists, he was part of him. KING of the blues!! What a band too, all monsters!
Bravo, B. B. King! Before you left us for Heaven, you played to the masses which included the rich, poor, middle class, upper class, and even the Royals. Anyone who doesn’t relate to the blues either has a heart with a hole in it or has no soul. Everyone has been a fool for someone, perhaps once or twice and has, therefore, had the blues. Each song tells a story about the blues and just why it came to be. The death of a loved one will bring on the blues and causes a heartache at best. What a genius because B. B. King could sing, write songs and play a guitar sitting, standing or walking. Yes, you were not just a good man but a great man. Rest in eternal peace, B. B. King, Mr. Blues Man! ❤👏🙏
everytime i think about it something inside me just breaks.. THANK GOD THEY INVENTED TH-cam of course will never be the same, but at least we get close.. and for free
For those of you who did not have a chance to see him live, I am truly sorry. I saw him 4 times, and each time he was great. With an artist this good, I really felt like if he was in the room and picked up an electric guitar, there would be magic.....and there was....it was like a religious experience to hear and see him. Thankfully we have these films of him, they are invaluable!! BB King a true original~
I saw him several times in the 2000-2010s. Including just before he passed away. He truly was a force. Even in his later years. And truly just a nice guy who connected with his audience. I do miss him. I also recommend Buddy Guy. He's only playing in Chicago but here is your excuse to go there. I seen him several times in recent years. He's 88 now.

concerts used to be a real celebration expressed through a very polished artwork, something to be forever remembered by the audience. let us bring that back, please.
The 1st BB King concert I ever attended with my brother and dad. Good to see the full length concert footage made available on TH-cam !! Thanks for sharing!!!😊😊😊
I saw him a few years earlier than this, and loved it so much I followed him to see him again on the same tour. A creative giant. But I have to say, this performance surpasses even what I saw. It's great to be able to enjoy so many aspects of BB's career on YT.
That's so cool man! I can only imagine how great that must be . Makes me smile and sad at same time cause i wish I could've seen him just once but that goes for so many of my favorites from the 60's and 70's. I Wish you and yours well .
First time I saw BB was August 1987 at ArtPark in Lewiston, NY - a couple months before this performance. His effect on the crowd was unrivaled in my years of seeing many performers. Every great thing you've every read about him is true. Great to revisit this younger, vital BB with a screamin' band behind him.
Please rest in heaven BB we all loved you dearly. I was at your concert at the casino wanted to introduce you to my momma but didn't know how to get it done. Ms Tate
This is what BB did when he was pissed at his band about something: gave them all solos early on, put them on the spot. You'll notice he doesn't sing much, either. Loved BB, saw him many times, he was something of a family friend, and never saw him do this but heard stories. RIP BB. Thanks for the upload.
BB King didn’t give the guys solos when he was pissed with them he respected his band members individual talents and showed them off to the audience. This I know because I was in the band for 35 years.
No one shakes the boogie like James Bolden 1:21:26! Shake the boogey, son! trumpets really backin' up the BB feels @ 18:32; Walter King hot sax @ 1:00:44; 1:01:11; 1:02:24 cymbal offbeat...and still building! whew! 1:47:49 crowd involvement
He's the "King of Blues" for a reason.

Look, I love BB, but he fathered over 15 children and wasn't in their lives--probably the worst thing hes done. So other than that Iagree
@@NickBird96 And who got his money? The manager.

I was also there😎😀😙. 22 years of age.... Thank you so much!!

These dislikes are probably related to the sound, it's really bad.

Its impossible to find a high view youtube video without dislikes so it doesn't mean anything.
Anyone who plays the electric guitar has been influenced by BB King, whether they know it or not! A true original, the best:)
Probably people who think loud british hard rock is authentic blues
Changing a broken string part way through a song, and carrying on.....special!!!!
Amazing how fast and then in tune he sets the new string. I had the chance to see him several times playing live. If G' exists, he was part of him. KING of the blues!! What a band too, all monsters!
A shame, no spare, no tech, that`s weak.

One of my saddest truths is that I wont get to experience a B.B. King concert. The man is truly missed.

@@edwinvanderlinden9830 Tnx Edwin, do you agree it starts at 29:50 ? (and any idea what the instrumental at 17:10 and 58:48 is?)
Jazz
Song is "guess" who I think
58:48 is the instrumental solo of "darling you know I love you"
BB made the guitar cry. He was and will always be the absolute best. Saw him twice in concert. The "GOAT"
I saw BB (and his beloved guitar Lucille) in Chapel Hill, NC, in the 1970s. It was magical and we were in ecstasy.❤️🎼
I was there. Right in front of the podium. The picture I took from BB. King is still hanging on the wall.
I was there. What a party, i will never forget
What time did it finish?
@@theculturedthug6609 2.30 am, 😊
Exactly. In a big circus tent. Unique atmosphere
@@robnijssenu mean this happened at 2:30 AM in Holland, I think?
Thank you kindly because this is pure delight. Music is best 🐬
This recording was made by AVRO Television in the Congresgebouw, the Hague, The Netherlands on 10 July 1987.
It features Leon Warren on guitar.🐬
