I met B. B. King on Sept' 1, 1993 at Chene Park music Theater in Detroit when he was promoting his Blues Summit album. he was playing with Robert Cray, Eric Johnson, Koko Taylor, Junior Walker and the All Stars and numerous others. My buddy Alex was a station manager at a local FM station and got us the tickets. We met Mr. King on his tour bus (Lucille, naturally) after the show and had our photos taken with him holding a Blues Summit poster for posterity. What a gentleman he truly was.

You sound like a blues aficionado. Do you remember ZZ Hill? His niece was my first wife, so I was a member of the family. ZZ was a laid back, decent guy, as I remember.

I didn’t spend that much time with him, but we always went to his shows whenever he played Los Angeles, and of course he spent time hanging with the folks.
