BB KING

We've been learning about the Central Region in the United States, also known as America's Heartland.  There are 2 regions in the Central Region, the Midwest and the South Central Region.

One of our reading selections mentions B.B. King, the great blues artist. The music he played became associated with the Central Region, especially in the Chicago area, where they have Blues Festivals. Here is a video of BB King playing a song called Blues Boys Tune.
