You sure ...? If you have this from the Guardian on-line, then it is just a bad head-line!

RIP - last of the great bluesmen, BB King

?????

BB King, who has just turned 87, has returned home to Mississippi to play to family and friends.

For reasons I won't explain, I shall mourn him by listening to Prince's Purple Rain.

Ah balls - yes, very poor headline from the guardian that someone had just mailed me telling me he'd passed on, sorry, thread title edited 🙁

if you look on the comments on the article, a lot of people took it that way....

Still, he's bloody great, and I'm still raising another glass 😀

Resurrection is probably appropriate given his god-like status in guitar playing circles... 8)

Saw him live last year, and while you can see age is catching up with him he's still playing well. a true guitar legend!
