Met BB briefly maybe a year or two before his passing. I live in Nashville and was walking by the Ryman Auditorium (Home to the Grand Old Opry till 1973). BB had a gig there this night and I didn't know it. BB's tour bus was parked near the loading dock and the bus door was open with a wheelchair sitting at the opening. I walked up to find out WHO WAS PLAYING, and as I walked up, BB was just coming down the steps being assisted and BB saw me standing there. He smiled at me as he sat in the wheelchair. He asked how I am, and I said I'm good. Then I asked if his woman managed to give him his 7 children back and he started to laugh and shook his head and said "No, she changed her mind", with that, he shook my hand and said "Thanks for the laugh!. As his helper pushed him into the Building.
Great memory.
Wow that's awesome. He was a great soul, wish I could have met him
Sweet! This King was very special and so much love to give.
Wow. Thanks for sharing.
Sort of looks like a mini Woodstock. Look at all them long haired hippys. Man, BB could sure play that guitar. RIP BB!
I grew up right there & it was! Little mountain settlement, mostly Mexican folks including my mom’s side of the family. Just outside of Albuquerque New Mexico.
Probably one of my favorite performances of one of favorite guitarists. The minute I heard about You Tube this was the first thing I looked for. I love the syncopated opening that begins the piece, the vocal medley of How Can you Get/Just A Little Love, the distorted swinging guitar section and the slow blues at end where BB is riffing a call and response with the horns. The performance has such variety and combines all the sophistication of a well thought out arrangement and the spontaneous emotion of jam session. My brother bought the soundtrack to this movie more than 40 years ago and this still inspires me.
back when people still has taste in great music and grooved...no standing like idiots with a phone in hand...BB King could get an audience up dancing and singing with pure joy!
people do groove still. that hasnt changed
This is some of the best solo’ing I’ve ever seen him do! Truly in the groove🔥
Totally agree! I LOVE BB!
Rest in Peace B.B. we still love you. God keep you. I saw him that year at Civic Stadium in Portland Oregon. I was up on stage right taking photos. It was a dream! Price of admission...$5! Thank for for presenting this. I feel 50 years younger.
That was amazing!!!! True Legend.
"I gave you 7 children, and now you want to give 'em back." If that's not blues, I don't know what is.
I always thought he sad "seven jewels"
I have been a fan for 45 years and yes there are technically better players but NO-ONE connects his heart and soul to the guitar and voice like B.B. . He is THE greatest and most of us will never see the like of him again, it's pure divine creation.
I'm only thirty-seven but I've been a fan ever since blues Brothers 2000 came out..
I thought the piano was pretty awesome…
I can do you one better. Albert King. Most powerful and emotional guitarist in history.
@@jordanposnik6663 Maybe - if you’re tone deaf 😂
The coolest thing is that this all happened in my backyard on Las Huertas Creek in Placitas, NM.
Absolutely brilliant interplay between BB and his band.
The ending jam of little bit of love, you couldn’t write that- just spine tingling
I love when he does the lady's voice. Pure. Freakin'. Gold.
Man, nobody can make five simple notes sing the way bb king can. that ending was sick!
If I had a time machine, this place would be on my list !
What a time that was:]
This is one of the best things I've even seen.
Rip man thank you for everything
When I was 12 I heard BB king playing a song called Worried Dream that was my start of being a bluesguitarist,I'm 63 now but still play BB King music in my blues band, thank you BB for all the songs from the heart just awesome stuff you are still the best my old friend, rest in God's arms.
Spread the word of love. Amen. God bless you BB. RIP dear brother.
The late great B.B. King.
Man bb was the man!
Saw him twice. First time in early 90s. I will never forget him. The King.
This was the first concert I saw BB. He was one of a kind. Thank you BB.
It looks like a good festival.
Who else was there?
@@Johnnycdrums the only one I remember was Stoneground.
I am jealous of these hippies, they look so happy without a care in the world.
Then they go on and ruin the housing market
Until the spring of 1973 I had never heard BB King, but someone across the lawn played Why I sing The Blues through an open window and that was it! Ever since I’ve loved his blues and Lucille…
This is the man himself at his very very best! This is why the blues matters so much!
I ALMOST FELL OUT THE BED LAUGHING AT BB WHEN HE PUT HIS HANDS ON HIS HIPS
WHAT A GREAT PERFORMER YOU WAS THE BEST AND ALL WAYS WILL BE NUMBER ONE IN MY BOOK RIP MR BB KING
This festive was film. Never seen before until now. Summer Of Soul.
Set on a shelf 50 yrs
Lost count how many times this moved me to tears
The slow instrumental at the end is called "My Mood"... Fantastic version!
it's not "night life" ?
Several variations of the same of not an extremely similar chord progression. Listen to 'Guess Who', 'Night Life', 'There Must Be A Better World Somewhere' etc.
In all reality its probably “Darlling you know that I love you” one of his first songs he recorded.
I say it’s that song because he has had a few live albums where he recorded that song with out any vocals. And if you listen to the guitar melody he plays in this video,it sounds pretty close to the original recoding
Damn the drummer is killing it! Looks like the same guy whos been with BB since the start
R. I. P. Mr. B. B. King. Thank you for the music.
unbelievable tone.
54 years ago and still amazing today
Amazing!
Just fell of my chair... Tone, feel, soul... The greatest.
I discovered blues through B B Kings music. Reast in peace you legend.
Красота ❤💕💯
B.B. is the greatest. It's cool to see those hippies grooving on the King.
Can't believe this is 40 years ago. I was born 20 years later after this performance, too late. There will NEVER be a time like this again when the real shit was played by true musicians like BB King.
Brilliant
this is so powerful...
Absolutely fabulous!!! I saw B B King on his 80th birthday tour in Waukegan Illinois at the restored Genesse Theater!!! A night to remember!!!
RIP BB KING ..... THE "KING" OF THE BLUES ..... THANKS FOR ALL YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE WORLD OF THE BLUES ....YOU WILL BE SADLY MISSED .....
Por dios!!!! Te tiembla el alma oírlo!!!
Love to see the whole Medicine Ball Caravan film in a cinema ! doubt that will ever happen !
My friend was a cook in the caravan.
Nobel Price to BB King, right now !!!!
it's funny to see him play infront of this bunch of hippies but still really nice to see all those happy people! this was real music!
Straight from his soul to our
ears.
this is great footage..thanks for posting.
Just LUV that blues at the end!!!
BB King is the Best..his playing and singing is Full On ! in this vid
I love 70s feel.
b.b.king age 45 ....b.b.king...great soul ....god blues......
We need the 60s again, it's our time.
masterpiece of art...
His voice, his playing, his tight band...
Its just another reason why he was KING OF THE BLUES RIP BB AND LUCILLE ❤
This is great... love the songs
wow - thanks - I needed that today!
People here qualifying BB's greatness with feeling they have to say others had better technique. Oh shut the hell up. BB had incredible technique. Take him at face value.
Thanks for upload! Brilliant B.B. and his band!!!
Ooh - 2.51 - BB. King plays chord shock! What a great bit of video, everyone's really grooving on both these tracks. Beautiful stuff.
BackToTheBlues ... He actually plays chords quite a bit here, and frequently threw them into his solos. The problem was he had a fondness for ninth and sixth chords that weren't necessarily appropriate for the arrangement but fit at that moment. There's a tutorial here in which he talks at length about his chord technique: watch it a few times and you'll notice he plays them on almost every song.
What a musician, what a music!
@johnnyguitar335 Holy cow - I never heard BB king like this. Mind you I don't really know his music but his kicks butt over the duets and the recent stuff. At the end, right after the chord progression, where he does his final lick, you know why he's the KING of blues.
This jam was in Placitas NM 1971 held on Ramaldo’s diary farm. I was 22 years old and lived just up the road. Hollywood paid me to make sure no one went to the bathroom in or near the creek. Cool times
The poetry is phenomenal
Right on. Straight Ahead Rock N' Blues..... HARD!!!
My mood, awesome spiritual! The King at his best!
Great musician and great band! A real joy to listen to.
Rest easy and thank you for everything, legends never die.
B.B. sure played with a lot of emotion!!! Thank you for posting this!!!

Fantastic. I love BB King. I will live to love.
Jah abençoe a quem postou esse tesouro

I had just dropped out of High School in Albuquerque when this concert was filmed and was totally clueless about the blues . . . seeing what I missed makes me want to cry.
✌🏻 got to see him in placitas at the Thunderbird ✌🏻😎
@@josephduran3848 Hi Joseph, This video seems surreal to me, dream-like in a way, how blessed you were to be there. 🙂
B.B.King. He is King .
I wish it was out on DVD.
wish i was there
Yeah I remember the day. Hog farm and wavy Garvey Bus was traveling with Hollywood getting footage for films. BB Kong. Came in on a Helicopter. Hollywood supplied the weed and beer and there was some wicked LSD floating around. I lived up the creek at a place called Tawapa. Hollywood paid us as security and clean up crew. They asked if we needed anything, they ended up buying us a truck load of organic food. That night after the concert we partied at the Thunderbird bar in Placitas NM. Got to dance with all these young and beautiful wanna be starlits that Hollywood was hauling around. Hollywood was planing on staging these concerts all the way to NYC and then cross the Atlantic. And finish up in London. Never happened because the caravan got in a real bad accident back east somewhere and they canceled the whole thing. I remember it just like yesterday, still a hippie at heart. Love and peace as BB would say!
