=======================================

Here we have a brand new BB King recording being shared for the first time.
I’ve had this sitting in my collection for many years and I figured today would be a great day to finally get it circulated.
Recorded from the main floor, Row A, Seat 21.
This recording has a few songs cut. The last song "Lucille" fades out early.
The taper did record more but faded it out because the CD was filled. This is all that we’re going to get.
I think the quality is fairly good and easily enjoyable.

I've included a scan of the ticket stubs. I’d like to thank gv0000 for finding the newspaper ad.

The opening act was Duke Robillard.

Total Time = 79:21
