"Well, There's, one Kind Favor I'll ask of You..."

"Please See that My Grave is Kept Clean..."

 

A traditional song recorded and performed many, many times by BB King. A true gentleman and ambassador of the blues. He died May 15, 2015.

I would like to dig his grave with a Silver Spade and let him down with Golden Chains...

His heart has stopped beatin' and his hands are cold... But his legacy with live on and on.

Rest good, Blues Boy

 

The background photo is from "Pauper's Field" in Owensboro, KY. A cemetery for "poor black folk" at the edge of town where the graves are not "kept clean".

The lettering and texture are from a BB King cooking apron ! These were sold at some of his shows in the 1980's...
