| Kurzbeschreibung: | | |  | | His real name is Riley B. King, but the B.B. stands, as any aficionado knows, for Blues Boy, a nickname he was given in the late 1940s when he was a disk jockey in Memphis, Tenn. Of course, he's best known as the King of the Blues to millions of fans throughout the world. At 70, B.B. King is still singing the blues and this is his story, from his childhood growing up in the Mississippi Delta, to the purchase of his first guitar at age 12, from his first real break after his appearance on Sonny Boy Williamson's King Biscuit Time radio show, to his ascent to international acclaim as America's ambassador of the blues. | |

| | After picking cotton in the Mississippi Delta, young Riley B. King makes his way to historic Beale Street in Memphis, and launches a career that later labels him as "King of the Blues." B.B. tells his story in this fine autobiography, which examines his childhood, the purchase of his 1st guitar at age 12, the musical influemce of his cousin Bukka White, the death of his beloved mother and his own difficulties with gambling & women (B.B. is candid about his 15-children by 15-different women). B.B.'s determination at overcoming obstacles, and his admirable work ethic (over 300 gigs a year for several decades), makes the reader want to pull up a chair in the back of a smokey blues club and appreciate all this man has accomplished.
