 During my blues history tour, I visited Indianola, Mississippi, hometown of B.B. King who is probably the world's best known bluesman alive today. 

Come on, let's walk in B.B.'s footsteps.....literally!

On June 5th, 1980, B.B. King preserved his footsteps, handprints and signature in cement in his old Indianola neighborhood!

 And when you're in Memphis, one of Bluejeans' favorite vacation destinations, stop by B.B. King's restaurant!  (Be sure to order the Philly Cheesesteak--it goes great with live blues music in front of it!)

And yes, that's Bluejeans himself standing there at the front door to BB's place.

(A special hi-sign to the lady tourist who snapped this picture on that Friday night and screamed at the street bum to get out of the way!)
