Of course, B.B. King is the man. He is a legend. I noticed that when he plays he closes his eyes and “feels the music”. He has had the same guitar for over fifty years and I’m pretty sure he practices every day. I agree that he has changed the meaning of riffs and style because he is such a legend. To me, it sounds like the guitar is singing. That shows how well he expresses his self through his music.
ReplyDeleteFirst off I love the tone of his guitar, it really helps to convey all of his emotions through to the music. His playing style is simplistic, its beautiful, but he doesn’t use any unnecessary speed like some guitarists I could name. He plays the straight basics in such a way that no one else can replicate. He saturates all of his music with emotion, which is something you rarely see in today’s music scene. It’s a great break from the normal.

I absolutely adore B.B. King. He is excellence at its best. He has such soul when he plays. He needs not speak words, but then (not in this video) he opens his mouth and angels sing. He is iconic because through all the change that music has gone through, B.B. King has stayed true to his sound, his vibe. He oozes blues, it's in his blood. His sound is unmatched. No one can compare to him, no one will ever be like him. He is amazing.
ReplyDeleteIm pretty sure the whole world believes that bbKing is pretty much one of the gratest people to ever touch a guitar. I mean he is a god when it comes to music. especially blues. His music is so wonderful. You can tell it comes form deep within his soul. I mean his music just warms everyone. I dont think theres a person in the world that can play like him.
ReplyDeleteStanley. That is all. I’m just kidding, but really, this guy is just…AMAZING!!! And as many people might say, or already have said, it’s really mind-blowing how he can play with his eyes, and it’s probably with good reason too. First of all, he’s probably so experienced that he CAN do that. Second, he’s probably so into it (or at least looks like he’s into it) that he can play with his eyes closed. In conclusion, I like that last part where he puts his fingers over the frets and it still makes noise (a nice one at that).
ReplyDeleteBB King, one of the greatest guitarists of all time. BB King has been playing music for over 50 years, until retiring a few years ago. BB King is probably the most respected, successful, and most recognized blues player all around the world. BB King won 15 Grammy Awards and was given the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. That shows how long and successful BB King has been throughout his career.
ReplyDeleteI have no opinion on the music.For people who like BB King, if that's his name, I guess it must be great. I, on the other hand, have never heard of him before, and I really don't care too much for his music. For some reason none of the music I've heard lately has had any effect on me in the slighest. I hope this is enough words to pass the assignment.
