This week we’re diving into a soulful blues lick from B.B. King’s iconic “Sweet Little Angel,” recorded live at the Regal Theatre in Chicago in 1964. Often hailed as one of the greatest live blues performances ever captured, Live at the Regal showcases B.B.’s unmatched ability to blend heartfelt emotion with masterful technique.
The lick we’re exploring—heard at 2:59 in the performance—is a perfect example of his expressive phrasing and economy of notes, proving that sometimes less really is more. It’s a brilliant way to study his signature bends, vibrato, and melodic storytelling on the guitar.
