Morgan Freeman remembered blues legend B.B. King on Friday, the day after the musician’s death at the age of 89. He told TIME that King will be sorely missed:
Needless to say, B.B. was the greatest blues icon on the planet. He kept us rocking and rolling throughout a seventy year career. His passing has created a hole in the universe.
Freeman joins Barack Obama, Eric Clapton and many more celebrities and musicians in mourning the passing of the music great.
