Onesie jammer’s Facebook tribute
A tribute to blues guitar legend BB King, recorded by a 10-year-old boy in a tiger-striped onesie has been viewed more than five million times.
Toby Lee, from Bloxham, posted the video on Facebook in April after the musician was taken ill in hospital with a diabetes-related illness.
The 89-year-old died in Las Vegas on May 14.
More than 143,000 people have shared the video of the youngster’s performance of The Thrill is Gone on the networking site. King’s daughter Rita Washington saw the tribute.
