Rest in Peace Mr.B.B. King.

Mr. B.B. King died today and the world is worse off than it was before. Mr. King was not only a superb musician and entertainer, but a genuinely nice man as well. I don't care if you like Blues or not, you had to appreciate the greatness of the King of the Blues. He will be sorely missed.
