This concert with “Blues Boy” King took place just a few years ago at the “Centrale del Tennis” in Rome. I think the tickets were about 57 euros. Kind of funny as King kept on saying in English: “I’m so happy to be in Rome” (no kidding, with the money he made that night!). This was the second time for me to see this great old bluesman, a musician who has also played with Eric Clapton, one of his many admirers (Clapton's album, "Riding with the King", together with King is pretty damn good). Also, the Stones together with AC/DC’s Angus and Malcolm Young do a great version of King’s “Rock Me Baby” in their 2003 four-set DVD, “Four Licks” (all pics by M. Rimati).
