Farewell B.B. King

B.B. King died Thursday night at the age of 89. He had been in ill health and died in his Las Vegas home. Over the years, the king of blues guitar played with a lot of our favorite musicians, including Slash, who idolized the blues legend. Slash took to his Facebook to remember King. Check out the video below - a classic.

R.I.P., B.B. Not only adored by Clapton, Jeff Beck, Keith Richards, Slash and countless other guitarists of all walks of life whose music he influenced, but also loved by all who knew and were also inspired by it.

The dream Blues band on tour playing from cloud to cloud in Heaven just got a new leader. God Bless & Godspeed.
