Off my radar, how could i have missed this blues great for so long?

[EddyFranner]

At work the other day and a all to familiar Led Zeppelin song started playing on the Sirius blues station "Tea for one" and it was'nt Zeppelin, I looked and the guy or band was ( JOE BONAMASSA), They are excellent and the guitar work would make Jimmy Page proud. One word "AMAZING" if you have heard this band you know what I am saying, if you just heard about this band like me, start downloading or buying. You will not be disappointed :thmbsp::thmbsp:

 

[clydeselsor]

Joe is an excellent player!!

 

[stoutblock]

I have his Blues Deluxe album. Excellent!

 

[Brett a]

I hadn't heard of him 'til a couple weeks ago when they played his concert at the Royal Albert hall on PBS.

Not my usual kind of music, but I was captivated for quite a while.

 

[OneMalt]

I currently have 4 of his albums and I've seen him live twice. First rate! :thmbsp:

Bought a ticket this week to see him live again in March 2010. Check out his Live at Rockpalast dvd......it will blow you away.

Man, are you gonna be bummed to find out this concert was nine months ago.

Joe Bonamassa is VERY good! :yes: :thmbsp: He was mentioned somewhere online --I think it was right here on AK-- a year or two ago, which was when I first became aware of him. A talented guy!

 

[stereofanboy]

I never heard of him until the radio starting advertising that he would be playing in the area recently. I never heard him until two days ago in the record store. Really good!

 

[Pavlov]

I saw him live this summer, absolutely fantastic!

 

[KrisM]

I agree with all above. A great player.
I could be wrong, but I think this might be the third thread on AK in the last couple of months about somebody discovering him.

 

[JDaniel]

I've seen him live. Puts on an excellent show.

 

[Montycat]

Just D'L-ed The Ballad of John Henry. Pretty good and it reminds me a bit of Big Sugar with the BIG GUITAR sound.

Doh!!

Meant to say March 2011.

Listening to Black Rock right now...:thmbsp:

 

[Theophilus Punoval]

I saw him in Utica when he was 13 or 14. He was Joey Bonamassa then.

You're in Mass. I saw Joe Bonnamassa at the Casino Ballroom in Hampton Beach, NH two summers ago. I was a great show and the tickets were only something like $25.
