BB has more talent in his little finger - literally - than all of these narcissistic ingrates put together.

More wisdom also.

One more thing to think about. Most rockers and many C&W stars claim they started out to be blues-men. BB is one of the rare few who really is.

He can also be as funny as hell - he appeared in the comedy "Kentucky Fried Movie" and was hilarious.

My favorite rockers are the ones who can pull of a convincing blues -- Led Zep, Hendrix, etc.

BB(King) has more talent in his little finger

I remember reading that a long, long time ago in "The Rolling Stone", back when it was an authority on music. and I think it was written by Ralph Gleason.

Speaking of that - where are the CW dudes who came out so clear and strong against the jihad in the immediate year following 9/11/01?

Don't see much support from them these days - surprising.

Re: BB

We went to a charity fundraiser about 3 weeks ago, as a sponsor, and took some friends. The friends bid on a BB-signed Gibson Lucille that went for >$6k and took it home! Shocked the heck out of us. Great cause, the Georgia Transplant Foundation.
