Since I seem to be somewhat inarticulate these days on this site, I think I’ll ask the great Riley (aka Blues Boy aka B.B.) King to help me out. Watch this great video from 1970 in a studio session. Amazing to think that he had been playing for 21 years at this point and is still going strong today.

\nHere are the lyrics for your reading enjoyment, though I think listening is much, much better.
\n<\/p>\n

\nThe thrill is gone
\nThe thrill is gone away
\nThe thrill is gone baby
\nThe thrill is gone away
\nYou know you done me wrong baby
\nAnd you’ll be sorry someday<\/p>\n

The thrill is gone
\nIt’s gone away from me
\nThe thrill is gone baby
\nThe thrill is gone away from me
\nAlthough I’ll still live on
\nBut so lonely I’ll be<\/p>\n

The thrill is gone
\nIt’s gone away for good
\nOh, the thrill is gone baby
\nBaby its gone away for good
\nSomeday I know I’ll be over it all baby
\nJust like I know a man should<\/p>\n

You know I’m free, free now baby
\nI’m free from your spell
\nI’m free, free now
\nI’m free from your spell
\nAnd now that it’s over
\nAll I can do is wish you well<\/p>\n

Written by Rick Darnell & Roy Hawkins, Performed by B.B. King\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nNow, does this mean I’m exiting the blogosphere? No committed answer, but I’m finding I don’t have much I want to share at this minute. So what I think will happen is that I’ll post something as the spirit moves me and otherwise not pay a great deal of attention to this. As you can see from my prior Twitter post, I’m all social-media’d out. Guess I’m not made of the same thing as B.B., it’s hard to imagine continuing to update this site in my 80’s.
\n
\nSo until next time. So long, and thanks for all the fish.
