B.B. King 'Live at the Regal' (1964) - How Blue Can We Get?


Listen Later

Andrew and Diamond agree that it's time to explore the blues, so they go straight to the King of the Blues himself, B.B. King, for some education with B.B.'s classic 1964 live album, Live at the Regal.

B.B. King is arguably the most famous blues musician of all-time. He began building his following in the early 1940s (!) and continued performing live for his fans for over 70 years (!!). A winner of 15 Grammy Awards (!!!), B.B. is one of the best-selling blues musicians ever and one of the most influential electric guitarists of all-time. 

Andrew and Diamond discuss how B.B.'s personality shines on Live at the Regal and play two new guessing games — Is he 83? and How much was $10 worth in 1964Subscribe so you never miss an episode of At First Listen.
