Joe Bonamassa and George Benson join Kyle Meredith to talk about the massive tribute album B.B. King Blues Summit 100, a 40-artist, 32-song celebration of B.B. King that pulls in everyone from Eric Clapton to Sheryl Crow, Marcus King, and more. The two guitar greats trade stories about their personal history with B.B., from Benson being called his favorite guitarist to Bonamassa touring with him at just 12 years old, while digging into what made B.B.’s playing, songwriting, and stage presence so singular. Along the way, they get into the overlap between blues and jazz, Benson’s breakthrough with “This Masquerade,” and the challenge of honoring a legend without trying to outdo him. And as they start joking and interviewing each other mid-conversation, it turns into exactly the kind of moment you hope for when two icons sit down.
