  I agree with you that B.B.'s playing gets redundant after a while.
However, if you like the blues at all, you really owe it to yourself
to pick up a copy of "Live At the Regal".  It is, as Bill indicated,
probably his finest recorded performance and a truly essential blues
album for any fan of the genre.

  Just my two cents....
