The first track he released, and the first B.B. track I heard. And it's still my favourite. Rest well, you legend.
Recorded in the 1950's heres BB King showing how he used to play the #blues.
And for comparison heres how he did it about 40 years later https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9ozjCQkqZs
Enjoy both :)

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
