As you may know by the time you read this that B.B. King passed away Thursday evening in Las Vegas around 9:40pm local time on May 14th, 2015.  A combination of a small bout of insomnia & a desire to deliver a fresh show in partial tribute to this legend, I decided to work overnight to put that together.

The first or so hour is all B.B. King.  The second hour is music that would have inspired B.B & almost any blues musician.

I hope you enjoy this small detour & devotion to a master.

May the Mississippi keep flowing…

The playlist is as follows:

  • B.B. King
  • B.B. King & Bobby Bland
  • T-Bone Walker
  • Anita O’Day
  • Bessie Smith
  • Fletcher Henderson
  • Louis Armstrong
  • Sidney Bechet
  • Big Joe Turner
  • Willie “The Lion” Smith
  • The Nat King Cole Trio
  • Wes Montgomery
  • Freddie Roach
  • Johnny Hartman
  • Yusef Lateef
  • Jimmy Rushing
  • Duke Ellington
  • Charles Mingus
  • Billie Holiday
  • Bobby Womack
