B.B. King, the larger-than-life guitarist and singer who helped popularize electric blues and brought it to audiences for more than six decades, died Thursday in Las Vegas. He was 89. Into his late eighties, King toured the world year-round as the unrivaled ambassador of the blues. His indelible style — a throaty, throttling vocal howl paired with a ringing single-note vibrato sound played on his electric guitar named Lucille — defined the genre. He won 15 Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987. "He is without a doubt the most important artist the blues has ever produced," Eric Clapton wrote in his 2008 biography, "and the most humble and genuine man you would ever wish to meet. In terms of scale or stature, I believe that if Robert Johnson was reincarnated, he is probably B.B. King." For more remembrances of King, visit: rollingstone.com #BBKing
