B.B. King with Slash “The Thrill Is Gone”.
2011, Live At The Royal Albert Hall with Slash, Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi, Ronnie Wood and Simply Red’s Mick Hucknall.
All the people talking about what an honor it is for King to have Slash’s hat put on his head, has anyone thought about what an honor it is for Slash to have BB King wear his hat?
Slash putting his hat on B.B. King has to be the one of the most iconic moments in the history of guitar.
Lyrics:
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong baby
And you’ll be sorry someday
The thrill is gone
It’s gone away from me
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away from me
Although, I’ll still live on
But so lonely I’ll be
The thrill is gone
It’s gone away for good
The thrill is gone baby
It’s gone away for good
Someday I know I’ll be open armed baby
Just like I know a good man should
You know I’m free, free now baby
I’m free from your spell
Oh I’m free, free, free now
I’m free from your spell
And now that it’s all over
All I can do is wish you well
Songwriters: Lew Brown / Ray Henderson
