Legend. Clapton, Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck…all those guys learned from BB!
Facts
Add Billy Gibbons to that list.
It is very true but none so far have managed to achieve that instant goosebumps and certainty of who is playing on the first note
Yeah they gotta play some Jeff Beck
Please don't forget Johnny Lee Hooker in there with all those gr8s ~ ///=^} ~ Robert Johnson is leading the way alongside other "players" ~
I saw BB King live - for free - in 1983. I was a prison guard - and Mr King would give shows for inmates.
I happened to be assigned to that concert - and positioned in front - of the front row.
I had the best seat for a BB King concert you could ever want.
He was an awesome man for giving his time and energy to others - especially brothers who were being harmed by a system.
I enjoyed the music with all the others in that audience.
He was awesome!
Awesome 👍🏽. Yes it was nice of him to give his time
Wow that’s amazing
BB King name ain’t BB King for a reason bro
Awesome man indeed
Parchman!?
THIS MAN IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST BLUES GUITARIST IN THE WORLD 🌎
He definitely gets my vote for best blues guitarist who plays clean with deeply intense feeling. For best total package, I prefer Stevie Ray Vaughan, but I'll never argue with anyone who prefers B.B. King.
Robert, Yes
Some have said his brother Albert King plays better than him. But yes, a great blues guitarist.
....Buddy Guy.
Mr. King is good, but Stevie Ray Vaughan would have something to say about that.
Im so glad youo played BB King he is a huge part of music history and one of the most respected guitarists of all time. Every guitarist owes this man. He is a big part of the great holy echelon of the blues. Robert Johnson, Louis Jordan, Bo Diddley, John Lee Hooker, Chuck Berry.
Without these guys rock music does not exist
I think of BB King as African American heritage.That's how important he is.Before James Brown,before Michael Jackson..there was BB King.God knows how many people he inspired to pick up the guitar.His greatness is just legendary
BB is a legend, because of him I fell in love with the Blues. check out BB KING AND STEVIE Ray Vaughn live in New Orleans, L.A at the Jazz and Heritage Festival.
I love all kinds of music. Pink Floyd is my all time favorite. I'm a 54 year old grandma who jams to Slipknot but B.B. King is an absolute legend. You want the blues that's where you go!
That's me too, except I am 63
BB is my guy. I'm 33 he gets through my workday. His collaboration with Eric Clapston was legendary.
I'm 20 but i think B.B King is so awesome. my father raised me with old music and i'm so glad cause now i love every kind of music.
Every day I have the blues.
@@What15life they don't make real music anymore. I mean i still consider metal real music they still mainly write their stuff and play instruments but this other music that is processed, written by someone else, auto tuned, just not music to me. Not passion like in the 60s and 70s when music was all soul
FINALLY FINALLY...FINALLY...Y'all have found the man, the myth...B.B.King. believe it or not, an inspiration to many heavy metal guitarist.
So glad u guys are experiencing this, keep them coming.
What a nonsens, he couldnt even play chords on his guitar, no example 😂😂
Travis Bergman Yes 👍🏽
@@robertdevoogt9558 what niggi
@@robertdevoogt9558 his influence and impact is undeniable. Don’t act like a jackass. Ever seen “life if Riley”, “BB King: On The Road”,…. Nog to mention his awards, recognitions, HoFs,…. Billy Gibbons, The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Gary Clark Jr, Carlos Santana,…. We’re all influenced by him…..
@@metalpetrol3315 a very “ poor” guitar plager.Influence?? They are just polite 😂😂😂😂😂
You guys should definitely react to another blues legend, Muddy Waters. Definitely do Mannish Boy off the Hard Again album. The electrified version. It's an absolute classic!!
Don't forget Bobby Blue Bland
Muddy is AWESOME!! Got to see him live once.
Buddy Guy! & John Lee Hooker! There are so many great Blues & Jazz singers.
JLH is my favorite, but Muddy and Howlin Wolf are close behind.
And Lead Belly. Check out his version of Black Betty.
The man could pack more emotion and more soul into a single note on that guitar than anyone else in music history.
Case in point, sweet little angel. That one note in that song... whew.
Prince. While my guitar gently weeps. Live at rock and roll hall of fame. One of the best guitar solos ever!
Props to your dad for raising you with excellent taste in music.
BB King is an Icon of music and the Blues .His guitar is named Lucille also one of his songs. Read his story! Can never get enough of his music!
BB King and Bobby Blue Bland on Soul Train performing together is one of the best things you'll ever hear.
Blues Boy King, the pride of Mississippi ❤. One of the GREATEST artists of any genre. I feel so blessed to have seen him in concert. So many guitarists name B.B. as their inspiration. I’ve never heard of a bad word ever spoken about the man. He is what the word “legend” means.
Other great blues artists are Albert King, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Howlin’ Wolf, and the one who started it all, Robert Johnson. There are so many good blues artists out there. Just dive in and enjoy! 😁❤️🎸
😀😀No bad word about him... Nobody ask his wife.. Or his ladys.
I am from Ethiopia & I grew up listening BB King
Guys love your channel. Check out Bill Withers another legend. Ain’t no sunshine, Lean on me, Grandmas hands
I got to see BB King live in 2005. He was diabetic, in his 70's and still put on a great show. He was so warm, charismatic, optimistic and full of life. Amazing performer. It was a privilege to see him play live, and I will never forget it.
I got to see him at the Uptown Theater in Kansas City in 1981 when I was young. One of the most incredible shows I've ever been to. He had the entire audience in his palm the whole entire show. And it was so fun and I got goosebumps so many times and his band was so good and of course he was all over the stage with Lucille, the guitar that he played for decades. I saw him several years later when he was older and then I saw him at an outdoor festival with other blues luminaries when he was extremely old and right before he stopped playing. He was so shrunken and shriveled compared to his normal robust self and he sat in a chair and it was a very short set but he still had Lucille and his band was still good and he sounded fantastic! Koko Taylor came out for one of the numbers.
BB King came to my history of rock n roll class back in college , Indiana university.He spoke and even played Lucille, his guitar. Very humble and laid back guy.
BB was known for his clean, clear, subdued style. A blend of Blues and Smooth Jazz.
Greatest blues guitarist ever!
Man, I told you guys in another comment to listen to BB. An absolute legend. He just Kisses your soul. He makes the hair on the back of my neck stand straight up, lol. So many rock legends were influenced by him. Listen to the duet with Tracy Chapman that they did. The thrill is gone. She is another ridiculously amazing artist. Her voice is insane.
A few more B.B. King suggestions for the Cartier Family:
-Worry, Worry, Worry (live at Cook County jail)
-Every Day I Have The Blues
-How Blue Can You Get
@@user98xp hell yes!!!
Take it from an old white lady, B.B.King was THE KING!! I used to sit up late in the 1960 listening to him on the Canadian Broadcasting network. The blues started at 10 PM! Lovely for people to listen to all kinds of music.
One of the greatest musicians of all times!!! 👍👏👏👏👋🇮🇹
Blues royalty right there. Nice to see young men discovering the greats that I grew up enjoying. Nobody ever had a negative word about BB - its worth your time to dig deeper into his music catalog.
Can't beat this for pure blues. How deep into your soul can you go with this? As deep as you're able.
This music runs deep in my soul born and live in Memphis TN it is impossible for it not to. This is what the soul of music sounds like.
BB King is all BLUES. I was BLESSED to see him live. Amazing. He threw out a necklace from his blues festival and I caught it. 🤗Still have it. 💜💜💜
BB King is the icon of the blues.
The best blues.
Love all his guitar playing & singing.❤❤❤
Man, he just plays so damn smooth, and croons so damn rough... fabulous!!!!
When Elvis was a young child he would sneak into the black churches and admire listening to the Choir sing Gospel Music. That started his love for Gospel, R&B, and Rock.
That kind of music comes from something deep inside. The soul is speaking
He just have to play one note, and you know it is BB King ❤❤❤❤
Saw BB King in concert. He was fantastic!
B.B. King and Eric Clapton made an album together. It's one of my favorites, it's amazing!
Ridin with the king 👑
@@lauriesandt5371 , YEAH! 😊
My favorite version of this song is when BB and Lucille (his guitar) play with Gary Moore in a small venue with an amazing backup band. I have seen it at least 10 times. Magic.
I know you reacted to STEVIE RAY VAUGHN Voodoo Chile but you have to see/hear Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo!! One of the best blues performances you'll ever see!
Huge Blues fan, especially the older blues. Y'all should seriously react to some older blues artists. BB King, little Walter, Howlin Wolf, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, John Lee Hooker Taj Mahal, Rye Cooder...
B.B. King truly was a blues legend and guitar hero rest in peace to the king
He has his own scale! When new guitarists ask how to get better at playing the blues, you show them the B.B King Box! And his vibrato is just sooo iconic.
Saw BB King one night at his joint and he played for about 45 minutes and killed it! The man had stage presence that you couldn’t describe. Just electric!!
Another great blues song to react to -Albert King & Stevie Ray Vaughan Born Under A Bad Sign ( In Session.)
@@Jack-Shat Yesi love the song!
Stevie worshiping at the feet of his idol!
@@davidteller7681 lol
BB KING is my dad's fav OF ALL TIME, so I grew up hearing this EVERYDAY
and I got the chance to c him live b4 he passed AND ITS THE BEST LIVE SHOW IVE EVER SEEN
React to Hold On I'm Coming by B.B King & Eric Clapton. These guys went crazy on the solo they made the guitar start TALKING!
I’m so happy to see someone reacting to my favorite blues artist! I was lucky enough to see him several times in the 60’s.
Joe Bonamassa opened for B.B. when he was 12 years old. Joe is now one of the very best blues guitarists. I think you would enjoy watching him and singer Beth Hart perform I’d Rather Go Blind (Etta James cover. If you don’t know Etta James you should definitely listen to her also)
Thank you-You made my day!
Saw him live a couple of times before his passing. R.I.P Blues legend 💙
BB King is 1 of my favorite blues artist. A legend in Blues who started them all...
He was my grandmas favorite! Saw him and got a personal meeting back in the 80’s while gambling. This man is a staple!! Also, he is the greatest blues person of all time!! Don’t forget it baby. Won’t ever hear no music like this. React to Lucille!!
That voice, so incredible! A true legend and a class act through and through. They don’t make ‘em like that anymore.
Good reaction guys! BB King is a great guitarist but I wondered if you guys noticed something UNIQUE about his playing style? BB only plays the guitar when he is not singing. Whenever he sings a verse he pauses his play on "Lucille." He then plays the rest of the phrase on Lucille and then comes with the next singing verse. It's his signature way of playing and it's down home blues style! A female all time great blues artist you guys should react to is...Koko Taylor "I'm A Woman!" AND GUYS PLEASE LISTEN CLOSELY TO THE LYRICS...this is called lyrical genius(whomever the songwriter is)!
He also doesn't play chords. He pays someone else to.
Saw B.B. King & his beloved Lucille live once. One of the best concerts I've ever been to. He--they--are sorely missed.
A great BB King song is Standing On The Edge of Love.Definitely one of my favorites!
He definitely is the King of Blues he is a legend I seen him in concert when i was a kid in the 90s he gave me the chills his voice goes right though you're soul
You can feel his passion and soul in the song. The way he sings and plays guitar even better if you close your eyes and listen. Do some Marvin Gaye, James Brown, Al Greene and Ray Charles songs 🔥
Yes!!! The only way to listen to B.B. is with your eyes closed. Sounds weird I know but try it, especially if you're alone & not distracted by others.
BB's guitar was named Lucille. Look up why. Its a great story. I grew up loving the blues with my dad. I still love them at 65 and always will. I'm sooo happy you guys got to experience the GREAT BB King........
I saw BB several times live...so proud to have witnessed this LEGEND on stage
Saw him when I was a senior in high school, 1982. First non-hard rock concert I'd been to and it was phenomenal. I've also seen him twice since then.
B.B. King had to be big to house his huge soul. Incredibly good at making you feel his music even while sitting down... masterclass
Thrill is Gone....Love it.... Love it when the heads start moving...You don't have soul if BB doesn't move your soul.....
While my guitar gently weeps .. The live one with Prince
He’s my favorite guitar player and blues musician. I was lucky enough to see him in concert several times and he never disappointed. He was a great showman too, even sitting in his chair with his guitar, he owned the audience.
I had one of his guitar picks. It always brought me good luck. I ended up passing along to someone who need a little good luck more than I did. There's a reason that man's last name was KING.
I like so much the energy, the words he used and the way in which Tahj (with the additional info from Brock 👏) shared with us his knowledge about Elvis and BB King!! 🤗🤗
What makes it even more beautiful is the complete absence of the "Look at me, look how knowleageable l am!" 😁 attitude in his and Brock's behaviour. Beautifully done, guys! 👏
The king of vibrato.
Bb king live at the regal is one of the best albums of all time. Certainly one of the best live albums.
Hey guys, I grew up in Memphis. BB lived and played around there alot.
He played Beale St with all the blues guys when he was young and skinny,
Lol. He opened his first club on Beale St. BB stands for Blues Boy he got the name when he was young on Beale St. Elvis would go play with all the guys when he was in high school. Elvis and BB knew each other since they were young men. I have had the honor on seeing BB and alot of the old blues greats at the Bealse st music fest they have the first of May every yr
And in the clubs on Beale. Nobody like BB and "Lucille ". Unfortunately
Most of the greats have passed in the last 10/20 yrs. Memphis is the home
Of the Blues. If you want some R&B listen to some Stax music from Memphis . Any will do. Otis Redding, Sam & Dave , Staples, so many to name. GREAT Music. Love your site. Peace.
BB King could put more blues in one note than most guys could put in a whole solo. I heard that BB was on the road for well over 300 days each and every year. He never spent much time at home.
The best concert I ever went to in my entire life was B.B. King at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. That was when I learned you should always go to the last show of the night for a blues concert because musicians no time limit. B.B. played for close to three hours that night and it was pure magic.
The truly amazing thing about B.B. King was that if you watch him carefully you'll notice that he never plays chords. Only single notes. And still got that incredible, thick, rich sound out of his guitar, a guitar that he used to refer to as "Lucille". He made Lucille absolutely sing!
I really enjoyed this video. If you have yet reacted to them yet, I have some blues songs to recommend to you guys: "Voodoo Child" performed by Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Mannish Boy" by Muddy Waters, "Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood, and "Didn't It Rain" by Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
Blessings to you!
Saw BB like 18 years ago at the Muddy Waters Festival in St Louis. AMAZING!! I love R&B!! It might be black culture, but it can touch a white person's soul too
BB King is what good music is all about it just makes you smile every time you hear it it fills your soul with fire.. That’s what real music does.
You guys are great - you should take up music, form a band and document the whole thing!
TO KNOW BEING AMERICAN IS TO KNOW THE BLUES; and the Hero's who show us the love of hearts and the beautiful pain it gives. ( If you can't see this SUPERSTAR's playing of feelings. Each few notes is a sentence, Wows me everyday.
Y’all please do John Mayer and BB live!! They go back and forth and funny as hell in between! Guitar legends
I had the extreme pleasure of seeing BB live. Holy cow. He is fantastic. What a show. He can play the blues better than anyone.
Absolute legend. Watch his duet with Eric Clapton, it's insanely good..
Growing up in the 60’s-70’s it just didn’t get any better than this.
BB is just stone cold and smooth as silk. A living legend at the time and just incredible. I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt, the thrill he gave me, most certainly is not gone, it's still here!!! Good lord can this man play!!!, even as an old man he is just scary good. I dig your channel fellas, you guys certainly are a bunch of for REAL ,good dudes !! I could for sure hang with you guys listening to some pure Old School, rock and roll and blues musicians like BB King ,Eric Clapton and the Allman Brothers to name a few!! Keep up the great work guys!! I look forward to you videos everyday!! What I like best about your channel is when I do watch it,I feel like I am hanging out with you guys!!
One of the BEST artists EVER! Thanks y’all! ❤️
AI: B.B. King and Elvis Presley did talk to each other on several occasions. They first met in the 1950s when they were both starting out in their careers and played on the same bill at shows in the South. They also appeared together on the same TV show in 1960 called "The Frank Sinatra Timex Show: Welcome Home Elvis."
In addition, B.B. King and Elvis Presley had a mutual admiration for each other's music. Elvis was known to be a big fan of the blues and often cited B.B. King as one of his influences. B.B. King, in turn, respected Elvis for his unique style and ability to bring rock and roll to a mainstream audience. There are even stories of Elvis showing up at B.B. King's shows and joining him on stage for impromptu jam sessions.
Overall, while they may not have been close friends, B.B. King and Elvis Presley did have a professional relationship and a shared appreciation for each other's musical talents.
...and I was looking through bibliographys for footnotes in 4th grade in encyclopedia Britannica... kids got it easy.
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting the amazing man of Blues!! Love Lucille and the man who mastered her.
B.B. King, my favorite of the three kings of blues: thanks for posting this for us. Wonder what your review or reaction to B.B. King and Albert Collins track "Stormy Monday" will be. IMHO the best track of Stormy Monday is the one B.B. does with Albert.🙂 BTW, mention was made of B.B. King and Stevie Ray Vaughn(SRV). King said of SRV: "'ve said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed." Both King and SRV were such passionate musicians (and remarkably good vocalist too!) the would close their eyes and seem to be channeling the music ... never lost on the fretboard. I would recommend Texas Flood by Vaughn for a reaction ... think you'll see why King spoke so highly of him!
B.B. King was born in N. Mississippi, but he made Memphis his primary home. There’s a B.B. King club on Beale St. in Memphis, and that’s where I used to hear him play. Y’all are right - his tone and playing style are distinctive. He made Lucille sing. Loved B.B. King since I first heard him on vinyl back in the 1970’s. Every artist others have suggested are great; I’ll second John Lee Hooker and Buddy Guy. Robert Cray was terrific back in the day. His Strong Persuader album was amazing, and he was fantastic live.
BB is a class act, as a musician and a human being.
That man has inspired many guitar players. He doesn't use fast or flashy guitar playing in his songs, just feel and soul.
Always loved his vocals too.
Y'all gotta check out some Buddy Guy. "What Kind of Woman is This" or "Damn Right I Got the Blues" are a couple of good ones by him.
u just witnessed one of the best blues guitarist of all time, he is one of the 3 kings along with albert king and freddy king
Amazing talent. Smooth. He is missed, no one could bring the blues like he did.
I was lucky enough to meet him. Such a nice gentleman.
I saw BB King live four times and I own most of his records on CD. He was an amazing guitarist and singer who had a big influence on my life.
I'm from Memphis. In the 70s, he would came to my daddy's shop to get parts for his tour bus. He is world famous. I love the blues. Like Santana, when you hear the guitar music start, you know it is B.B. King.
Good to see the young G’s paying respect to the OG’s. BB King is an OG and a legend. A lot of rock n’ roll legends credit BB as their OG. Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters and so many other Blues legends pathed the way. I like Sweet 16 by BB King, and Tin Pan Alley by Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix has a lot of good blues covers like Hear My Train Coming
I got to see the King shortly before he passed away at the Forum theater in Harrisburg PA. He had the biggest, fattest, woodiest guitar sound I ever heard. When the show was over everyone filed out except about fifty people. We stood in the front rows and he sat at the edge of the stage on a chair and just talked with us. It was like having an audience with the blues pope! He was so cool and fatherly. After about 15 minutes his stage hands tried to get him to leave twice but he stayed longer. Finally he left to his palatial tour bus. I think his next gig was Atlantic City New Jersey. I still remember his voice and the kindness with which he spoke to us.
BB King is a great role model ! He let the audience have it at the end!🔥☄️🔥
Check out B.B. King "live in Africa" 1974. Title song "Why I sing the blues". He was in his prime and at his best. Enjoyed the reaction. 👍👍
Buddy Guy " Feels like Rain"...another great blues singer ❣️
This is legendary. Rest in peace Mr bb king...
The Thrill Is Gone was a HUGE hit and played on every radio station back in the day. 👍👍👍
Legendary and great! Former members of BB’s band have a new band called Silent Partners that you should check out too. Bass player Russell Jackson and drummer TC Coleman along with an old friend Jonathan Ellison make up this amazing trio. Must see! ❤
First time I saw BB King play was at the Great Southern Music hall in Gainesville, Fl. 1976. Amazing. I was close to the stage, and got to shake his hand! Huge ring on his finger. Greatest Bluesman in the world
This made me smile. I have listened to some BB King throughout the years. He's a great performer and can sang the blues.
BB King is awesome, he has a restaurant in Memphis on Beale st called bb king blues (or something like that)…..
This old almost 57 year old whites woman could sit and listen to him for hours, get me a glass of wine turn the lights down low and just relax while listening to him or any of the blues singers……
When I started playing guitar way back , all my early heros all pointed to B.B. He's my heros hero and mine , too.
Wish you could have heard him live. He was the best. Enjoy, guys!
💚💚💚
Of course I am one lucky Mother Effer that got to see BB King live at the Hollywood bowl at the BB King blues Festival circa 2006 another one of the greatest nights of my life.. just being at the Hollywood bowl was a thrill.. The Beatles played there
