Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour joins artists such as U2, Sting, Elton John and Van Morrison, all of whom are collaborating with B.B. King for the blues legend's "Duets" album to be released later this year.
The record is just one of several celebrations surrounding King's 80th birthday (September 16th) this year. In June, ground breaking on the long-planned B.B. King Museum in his home town of Indianola, Mississippi, will take place, with benefit concerts to raise funds to take place this summer.
B. B. King started recording the album in March, and as yet, David's contribution to the album is not clear. As and when we get further information, we will of course let you know.
