BB King is in hospice care. Here is his first hit single from 1951. He sounds so young!

Goodbye everybody, I believe this is the end. RIP
The first track he released, and the first B.B. track I heard. And it's still my favourite. Rest well, you legend.
How do you memorialize a Blues giant in just one song? With his first #1 hit. Listen to his big voice, hear the T-Bone Walker influence in his playing.
RIP Beale Street Blues Boy
