Very sad - a last link with the Blues Greats.
I saw Mr King in concert last year in Montreal, and he was a pitiful shadow of the musician he was.
He played You Are My Sunshine and spun it out for twenty-five minutes.
At the end, the concert ground to a halt, the house lights came on and people left - no applause, no encore, just a band looking embarrassed standing around, and a confused old man sitting on the stage looking like he didn't know what was going on around him, or where he was.
I shall remember him for the fabulous musician and huge influence that he was.
