    A great loss indeed, but we should be glad that we had him with us for such a long time.

    R.I.P. BB. Thanks for all the great music. :(

    Truly one of the greats, and one of the last :(

    Gutted to hear this.

    I was lucky enough to see him live twice (Dublin 1989 with U2 and New York 2007).

    Both times I truly felt in the presence of greatness.

    Genuinely saddened by this although it was inevitable. Such a beautiful guitar player. His influence is immeasurable. Saw him once when I was young.

    Rest In Peace Mister King.
