BB King’s Legendary Guitar Solo – From Nobody Loves Me But My Mother
The guitar solo of King during this performance is no less in importance. He incorporates theresonant bends and vibrato in such a way that it almost feels as if the character is being killed, which resonates deep in the blues typical of him. He plays in between the chord progressions – behind you, up front and if I may say, out of the box, simply is how I would put it – in the instance of integrating the ideas of embellishments and improvisation.
Apart from the technical, King’s one more thing, his solo, is that it is great in feeling. In such a work of the mother there is a lot of sadness and sorrow, lonesomeness – one cannot help but say, thank you. The way he plays takes out all within him, and is hit on everyone by the touch.
