BB King and Lucille
« on: November 23, 2006, 06:20:05 AM »
I had the great opportunity of meeting and photographing the great American Icon when he performed at the theater that i work at.

He just turned 81 and had a little trouble getting around, but his voice and talents show no age limit.

I hope you enjoy, i especially like the first shot.

hi joyce.
i hope you are feeling well. :)

i had total access to him and i was a nervous wreck, worrying that the photos would not come out good. i took over 200 photos in a short time.
he is fantastic and loves his audience.

Fantastic photos Lou.  The last time I saw BB King live was in Gainesville during the winter of 75'!  While I'm starting to sound like an old giser I really do like listening to him on the stereo with a peaty single malt scotch!

Cheers,

gary

Louis,
I agree, that first photograph is fantastic, stunning!
I am very happy for you that you have this opportunity.
And, I know that you will take full advantage of it.
