    Growing up I always use to get him & Ben E. King mixed up. "The thrill is gone" has been & always will be a classic. R.I.P. Mr. King.

    RIP.... A true legend... a mentor to scores of guitarists, who included Eric Clapton, Otis Rush, Buddy Guy, Jimi Hendrix, John Mayall and Keith Richards.

    Thanks Rick, One amazing Guy, over decades......With Diabetes, I'm surprised he lived to almost 90. As 90% of Diabetics, die of Heart Attacks, or Cardio related diseases, CDF, et al. Not known for long lifes.
