THE BLUES GANG - The Thrill Is Gone (by B.B. King)

Latvian band THE BLUES GANG performs a cover of B.B.

Hawkins’s recording of the song reached number six in the Billboard R&B chart in 1951. In 1970, “The Thrill Is Gone“ became a major hit for B.B. King. His rendition helped make the song a blues standard. THE BLUES GANG: Dmitry Tararin - guitar, vocal Alexandr Radionenko - bass, vocal Olaf Changa - drums
