A Benefit for JABA

Opening: Eli Cook

Sponsored by Ralph & Jackie Bradley and Renee & John Grisham

B.B. King' s music -- born of his vision, worried into perfection over years of hard meticulous work -- has shaped and colored the whole of the modern blues to the degree that virtually no performer of the music since his time has escaped the pull of its all-persuasive influence.  He has become the single most popular and successful of all blues performers of modern times.  The real foundation of his music, no less than his great success, has been the direct, earthy fundamentalism of the blues which he continues to perform with a brilliant, fervent “contemporaneity” of feeling as have few others.
