Some great B.B. while we're at it.
I saw BB King 2 weeks ago. He's 87 and his voice was still amazing. His band carries the song and he just interjects when he feels like it. He basically hit on every woman in the audience as well, and then signed autographs and handed out picks for 30 minutes after the show. His handlers had to basically drag him away. You can tell he just lives to be on stage. Everyone loved him. There are lots of legendary artists that I love that I wouldn't be serious money to see anymore just because their voice/skills seem shot (Dylan and Petty, from what I hear).

After Paul McCartney earlier this year this may have been one of my favourite concerts.

Best female blues vocalist I've heard in years. She did an album with Joe Bonamassa which is amazing.

My friend, Randy McQuay II, won the International Blues Challenge last night in Memphis, TN after at a performance at The Orpheum. Dude is awesome!

Damn this thread predates Marcus King. He's a monster. Dude's like 26 or something.
