Living Blues | Living Blues #238
Living Blues #238 (August/September 2015) features Chicago blues legend Eddy Clearwater on the cover in his first interview with LB in nearly 15 years. The bulk of our issue though is devoted to our tribute to B.B. King.

B.B. King Through the Pages of Living Blues traces the journey of the King of the Blues as covered by the magazine. There is also a decade-by-decade overview of King’s albums and a tribute/obituary from David Whiteis. The 2015 Living Blues Awards winners are announced on page 94.
