BB King Trivia?

[Ramon O]

The source of where he said this is unknown but Wikipedia has this quote of BB King saying "I have 4 people in my life I wanted to be like - would you believe 3 of them was white...and I'm from Mississippi!" My question is, who are those 4 people?

I would think the black one was Bukka White.
