"Bendera musik dunia harus terbang setengah tiang karena benar-benar salah satu gitaris terhebat di dunia dan raja blues telah mati. Saya telah menghargainya dan begitu pula seluruh dunia yang mengenalnya dan mencintainya sepanjang kariernya. Seperti kita sakit, kita harus merayakan bahwa musiknya, gaya bermain dan menyanyi akan bertahan selamanya, dari rekaman yang telah dia lakukan dan pengaruh yang dia miliki dan akan miliki pada gitaris di seluruh planet ini. Hiduplah semangat BB King."

--- Stevie Wonder

The musical flags of the world should fly at half mast because truly one of the greatest guitarists in the world and king of the blues has died. I have cherished him and so has the rest of the world who knew him and loved him for his entire career. As we pain, we must celebrate that his music, his style of playing and singing will last forever, from the recordings that he has done and the influence that he has had and will have on guitarists all over this planet. Long live the spirit of B.B. King.
