I'm a huge fan of BB King. Once when I was in New York I dropped in to his club for a chat but he wasn't there 😞
While this photo was being taken at the door I noticed a small queue forming behind my wife/photographer
"Can we go in now sir?"
"Yeah but behave.. I'll be watching you"

Nice..I saw him live a couple of times in Cork. Must've been late 80's or very early 90's. A real showman. top man

Apparently a favourite of BB himself. Overshadowed by Live at the Regal (lovely stuff) but I've a soft spot for this too.
Indianola Mississippi Seeds was one of the first "proper" blues albums I bought on a trip to London about 30 years ago. Still one of my favourite LPs

Enjoyed that Shane. Nice to know BB himself favoured this album. That’s a great title for a Blues album. I’m assuming that’s BB King? I actually remember that sleeve. Must go look see….

The backing band is basically the Allman Brothers. 1970 and swampy.
