'Blues Legend' does not do him and his music justice.

I saw him live around 2002. His only concession to age was that when he performed he sat on a stool rather than standing.

 

[Hardkore]

Another great one has gone up yonder.

Despite mainly knowing him thru his legacy,there is only one song I am familiar with where he played with U2 on Rattle & Hum.

Great music up heaven righ now.

 

[PhillyGirl]

Great music up heaven righ now.

Amen!

 

[It Takes Eleven]

He didn't really slow down until the very end. I believe he played 200 shows last year.

We hit an upstairs bar with a juke box not far from our office today for lunch, filled it up with BB and Lucille, and let it roll. Did the same thing when Levon Helm passed.

RTR,

Tim

This is probably his best known song.
