B.B. King tiluttaa. Onko bluesmies?

B.B. King has been named as a major influence by an overwhelming number of rock guitarists. He has performed with many musicians which he helped to inspire, including U2 on the song 'Angel of Harlem' and Fleetwood Mac. When Peter Green guested on a track for King's Live in London sessions in June 1971, B.B. remembered "a disillusioned and very quiet Peter in the studio who didn't say much at all; but I got the feeling that he just seemed to find it a comfort sitting near to me for a while." In Martin Celmin's biography of Peter Green, B.B. King stated that, "People have told me that in his early years my guitar playing influenced Peter a lot. Now that's something I take as a great compliment, but I have to tell you that I don't get it myself. When I hear Peter Green....I hear Peter Green." Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks also appeared on King's 1989 album, King of the Blues.

Peter Green:
Peter Green: When you have a musical superstar like B.B. King saying things like “He has the sweetest tone I ever heard; he was the only one who gave me the cold sweats,” you know you’re doing something right.

John Mayall's Bluesbreakers:
In 1966, Green played lead guitar in Peter Bardens' band "Peter B's Looners". After a three month stint with them, he had the opportunity to replace Eric Clapton in John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, for three concerts. Not long after this he became a full-time member of Mayall's band.
He made his album debut with the Bluesbreakers on the album A Hard Road. It featured two compositions by Green, "The Same Way" and "The Supernatural". The latter was one of Green's first extended instrumentals, which would soon become a trademark. Green would earn the nickname "The Green God" for his interpretation of the blues. In 1967, Green decided to form his own blues band, and left John Mayall's Bluesbreakers.

Mutta onpa hienoa kun ei ole puristi ja voi nauttia sekä Robert Johnsonin ja Muddy Watersin perinteisestä bluesista että Peter Greenistä, Eric Claptonista jne. Ja jopa Gary Mooren tai ZZ Topin bluesrockista.
