Kickin’ It At B.B.’s

Country music rules in Nashville. But it ain’t the only – uh – stuff in town. Far from it. Tonight we dropped by B.B. King’s joint for a bit of blues, soul, old-school R&B and just plain rockin’ good fun. The house band is a great band, from the rhythm section on up. When lead singer Larry Springfield kicked off the set’s final song, “Let’s Get It On,” Mitzi and I could not resist, and we jumped up to join the bumpin’ crowd on the dance floor. It takes a lot to get a musician to dance, particularly one of a certain age. But these cats did it, with room to spare.
