I was trying to find some BB King but it was just the same song over and over :(

early bb king is nearly impossible to find on you tube, its a shame as the stuff on Flair records is amazing.

BB hated to be called "down home" blues, his music was sophisticated and modeled after the jump blues of Louis Jordan and T-bone

Sam Lay, although a drummer , vocals, late 50's so not super old, heck I was born in late 50's:), he played with some good ones. He is in the blues hall of fame.
