Riley B. King (born September 16, 1925), known by the stage name B.B. King, is an American blues musician, singer, songwriter,
and guitarist.
Rolling Stone magazine ranked him at No. 6 on its 2011 list of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time (previously ranked No. 3
in the 2003 edition of the same list),and he was ranked No. 17 in Gibson's "Top 50 Guitarists of All Time".According to Edward
M. Komara, King "introduced a sophisticated style of soloing based on fluid string bending and shimmering vibrato that would
influence virtually every electric blues guitarist that followed."[3] King was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in
1987. He is considered one of the most influential blues musicians of all time, earning the nickname "The King of Blues", and one
of the "Three Kings of the Blues Guitar" (along with Albert King and Freddie King).King is also known for performing tirelessly
throughout his musical career appearing at 250-300 concerts per year until his seventies. In 1956 it was noted that he appeared
at 342 shows. King continues to appear at 100 shows a year.
Over the years, King has developed one of the world's most identifiable guitar styles. He borrowed from Blind Lemon Jefferson,
T-Bone Walker and others, integrating his precise and complex vocal-like string bends and his left hand vibrato, both of which
have become indispensable components of rock guitarists' vocabulary. His economy and phrasing has been a model for thousands of
players.King has mixed blues, jazz, swing, mainstream pop and jump into a unique sound. In King's words, "When I sing, I play in
my mind; the minute I stop singing orally, I start to sing by playing Lucille."
