I can't think of more people with more work ethic than BB King. The future didn't look too bright for a black kid trying to make it with a single parent back in the depression. Most days they wasn't sure where their next meal would come from. Music had to be a minor thing to him at that time but perseverance paid off. I can see why he still plays three hundred or more show a year. A king indeed.

Excellent point. He seems to have a really great attitude which has served him very well in life.
