Subject: Joe Bonamassa - Blues Rock guitar
I must have had my head buried in the sand. Why havn't I heard about this guy before tonight? I was channel surfing and came across this guy playing the Albert Hall. He sings like Paul Rodgers and plays like - well I don't know what. He had Eric Clapton come out for one number - Further on up the Road - and easily held his own.
I worked in record store for many years and was always dubious when someone walked in and said - "Dude - you need to check this guy out". But dude - you really need to check this guy out. I understand that he was mentored by Danny Gatton and was opening for BB King when he was 12. I'm impressed and I expect you will be too. See what you think.
