ROSY-CHEEKED KING OF THE BLUES.
PIC INFO: Spotlight on the late, great B.B. King (1925-2015), American blues guitarist/vocalist/singer-songwriter and all around legendary bluesman, artwork by William Stout for his "Legends of the Blues" (2013) portrait series.
MINI-BIO: "Riley B. King was born on September 16, 1925 in Itta Bena, Mississippi. After his father left the family, Riley grew up in his mother’s and grandmother’s homes. He worked as a sharecropper and sang gospel, then moved to Indianola, Mississippi, in 1943. Country and gospel were his first influences, followed by the music of T-Bone Walker, Lonnie Johnson, Charlie Christian and Django Reinhardt. In 1946, he studied guitar for ten months in Memphis under his cousin, bluesman Bukka White. After months of hardship, Riley returned to Indianola.
King came back to Memphis in 1948, working at radio station WDIA as a singer and disc jockey, gaining the nickname “Beale Street Blues Boy,” (hence, “B.B.”; not “B. B.”, by the way). Upon first hearing T-Bone Walker, he promptly purchased an electric guitar. King cut tracks for Bullet, then began recording for RPM with (famed Elvis Presley) producer Sam Phillips. King’s first R&B #1 was Lowell Fulson’s “Three O’Clock Blues” (1951).
In the mid-1950s, while B.B. was performing at an Arkansas dance, a kerosene stove got knocked over during a fight, setting the place ablaze. B.B. raced outdoors with the crowd. Realizing he had left his beloved $30 acoustic guitar inside, he rushed back in to retrieve it, narrowly escaping death. After finding out the brawl had been over a woman named Lucille, he named his guitar “Lucille” as a reminder never to be so crazy as to fight over a woman. Since then, each of his Gibson guitars has been named Lucille. The original Lucille was stolen from his car’s trunk in Brooklyn. He offered a $20,000 reward but no one ever came forward. He eventually had an open offer of $100,000 for the return of that beloved guitar."
-- WILLIAM STOUT, slightly revised B.B. bio from WS's "Legends of the Blues" book

Topic pedalboard: What guitar effect is a MUST? By the way, the beautiful pedalboard is from our friends @templeboards. They are doing an amazing job combining 5 things I love: - Engineering - Product design - Personalization - Defined places for stuff - Lego-Tetris mindset all-in-one :D #rombopicks #guitarist #guitarsolo #slideguitar #bluesguitar #dangelicoguitars #femaleguitarplayer #blues #talentedmusicians #musician #music #musiciansofinstagram #guitarist #groove #funk #bassplayer #fendermustangbass #dangelicoguitars #practice #tele #telecaster #guitarcover #guitarloop #lavamusic #guitarsarebetter #guitarsdaily #fretboardmusic #juicytones #juicyguitars #sheshreds (at Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj8HEy7qA7q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
