Got to be said, Joe Bonamassa is one of the blues players for the 21st century. No secret of course to those that have already heard him, but this guy has all the right sounds and a voice.
"In an interview in Guitarist magazine he cited the three albums that had the biggest influence on his playing: John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton (the Beano album), Rory Gallagher's Irish Tour and Goodbye by Cream. He also stated that Stevie Ray Vaughan's Texas Flood was a big influence at a young age."
The New York blues man tours the UK in March 2012. Watch out !
Here he is recording "Ballad of John Henry"
How does he make the guitar sounds? Joe demonstrates his Effects pedals.
So now you know exactly what to do.. just go and do it.
