Born on this day 99 years ago, the great blues and rock figure B.B. King, a guitar master with his own style. He gained the nickname "Beale Street Blues Boy", which was later shortened to "Blues Boy" and finally to B.B. King. He was a major influence on Eric Clapton and Rolling Stone magazine placed him behind only Jimi Hendrix and Duane Allman in its list of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time. I was lucky enough to enjoy his fantastic guitar play on concerts.

This never actually happens nor will it ever. Anywho…
Hey!!! This is a DTIYS that you can participate in if you want!! There’s no deadline or prizes or anything though. Anyway details under the cut if you want to read them:
No rules! Do whatever you want with it! Go ham! Simplify it! Change their poses! 09’s scar doesn’t really matter! Replace his tie! Hell, take one of these two out of the picture! I don’t mind! (It’ll happen one day, anyway) As long as they’re recognizable, go for it!
The guitars I drew here are a Gibson ES-355 and a Martin D-28… not very important and you can replace them with whatever really (maybe even replace 09’s with the Red Special like in the SFM). Just wanted to mention them :]
If you post it, please tag me! I’d love to see it!
Have fun!

In Texas, Ray Benson’s early-’60s Gibson ES-355 is as iconic as Bob Wills’ Stetson and cigar.

Mr.Blues, B.B.King
Riley B. King nasce a Itta Bena, Mississippi il 16 settembre 1925. Con lo pseudonimo B.B.King entra a far parte della mitologia blues, insieme alla sua chitarra Gibson ES-355 custom, la leggendaria Lucille impersonifica l’icona di un genere. B.B. King: La prima volta che ho incontrato il blues fu quando mi portarono qui su una nave. C’erano uomini su di me e molti altri usavano la frusta ……
