- Description:
- Portrait of legendary blues musician, B.B. King performing at the 1980 Montreux Detroit Jazz Festival. "Riley “B.B.” King has been called the “King of the Blues” and “Ambassador of the Blues,” and indeed he’s reigned across the decades as the genre’s most recognizable and influential artist, his half-century of success owes much to his hard work as a touring musician who consistently logged between 200 and 300 shows a year, through it all he’s remained faithful to the blues while keeping abreast of contemporary trends and deftly incorporating other favored forms - jazz and pop, for instance - into his musical overview ... as a guitarist, King is best-known for his single-note solos, played on a hollowbody Gibson guitar, King’s unique tone is velvety and regal, with a discernible sting, he’s known for his trilling vibrato, wicked string bends, and a judicious approach that makes every note count," from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum's website.

- Description:
- Portrait of Jerry Lee Lewis at the microphone. "Jerry Lee Lewis is the wild man of rock and roll, embodying its most reckless and high-spirited impulses, on such piano-pounding rockers from the late Fifties as “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” and “Great Balls of Fire,” Lewis combined a ferocious, boogie-style instrumental style with rowdy, uninhibited vocals, he migrated to Memphis from Ferriday, Louisiana, where he’d grown up learning how to play piano by ear based on the music around him: Western swing, boogie-woogie, uptempo R&B and Delta blues. Lewis’ first influence was the country-blues sound of Jimmie Rodgers, although he also absorbed the gospel and R&B of the local black community," from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame website.
