As part of the A to Z Challenge, I visited a number of other bloggers. (Actually, I'm still trying to make my way through to visit all 1509 blogs) One blog that I ran across was The Scheherazade Chronicles .  After I had left a comment, the blogger, Samantha Mozart, paid my blog a visit. She was inspired by my T is for Tequila post. And responded with another post of her own.

We lost another great musician the other day. On May 14, 2015, Riley B King, the legendary guitarist known as B.B. King , died. He was 89 years old.

It's been a few weeks since we've done a "Who Sang It Best" I recently stumbled across this gem, and thought I would share in honor of Mother's Day.

Today's post is in response to a request from a very patient reader, Jeffrey Scott . (Click on his name and check out his blog!) I kept putting it off for a variety of reasons, one being that I needed to concentrate on the A to Z Challenge first. Another reason is that I have been torn about whether to write about this particular artist or her husband first. I hope I am able to do this one justice.
