The Sky Is Crying...BB King Remembered in Ahmet's House

Those legendary names know no confines, know no labels. The name of BB King is one such name. Born of a sharecropper family in 1925, Riley B. King transformed his life, his world, and the Blues. His legacy is strong, and tonight we celebrate the giants who he followed and those who have followed his untraceable steps.

The One and Only...a Beautiful Man...Long Live the King of the Blues!
