“B.B. King personified blues music for the whole world. He was larger than life, but a gentle man with a kind soul and a big heart. ACL Performance ranks as one of my personal favorites and I was never more proud than when he somehow slipped ‘Austin City Limits’ into the lyrics of his classic rendition of Willie Nelson’s ‘Night Life’. We’ve lost a giant.” - Terry Lickona, ACL Executive Producer
