"I saw him a number of times back in the 60s when I was on the folk music circuit. Even was on the same stage with him a few times and opened his shows once or twice in England. "
   
  I'm about half way through Eric Clapton's autobiography right now (excellent reading, by the way) and he has mentioned BB a few times in the text - always with words of praise and admiration.  I saw BB a few years ago in Nashville and was absolutely blown away.  I play a CD or two from both of them at least once a week.  One of my favorite CD's now is "Riding with the King" which features them both.

  A lot of the time we
played to empty houses. Whodda thunk it?! I will add that if you get a
chance to see Taj Mahal or Keb Mo you should also do so. Some guy named
"Zoom" is rumored to be pretty good on a guitar too...... ;-)
