Comment
This date and venue are suspect. BB King certainly played the Grandin Theater on 04/03/86. According to the owner of that theater, no other shows were scheduled for Roanake, VA that year, and BB King did not perform at the Civic Center on this date. In addition, BB King played at the Beacon Theater in Manhattan with Miles Davis on April 4, 5, and 6. A review in Billboard of the NY shows can be found here.
