@brymacbluesband You're really desperate to prove your point aren't you? haha. Stubborn, like myself... which is ok. I really don't think you can imply that Page wasn't innovative, I'd agree that he stole melodies ect... but from a production point of view, he basically produced most of the zeppelin stuff... it's completely of it's own. Jimmy is just a hero, I'm adverse to comparing those kinda players with modern virtuosos purely because "without them, we'd be nothing" yeah yeah...
Stevie ray Vaughn is without a doubt. A god amongst men. But I've said this before to people who go comparing great players to SRV you just can't compare anyone to a legend like Stevie. Joe is probably not as legendary but they're both different styles in blues. And Bonamassa is probably the best blues player of my generation. Just as Stevie was in the 80's I love them both. And Stevie was probably a better performer but Joe is a king in the style of modern blues music.
@oldfart4751 me thinks Stevie set a standard that has been reached my friend...remember..a man called Clapton..that was said about him..and ..the rest is history..music moves on..and so does the heights..
Blues IS actually a cliche, however within that cliche one can manipulate it to make things a little more interesting. I agree with punkmusicmetal that this example of his playing is one dimentional. Blues is not so much about scales and notes as feeling anyway. JB is not a GREAT blues man like BB. BB shows what value can be obtained from a single note!
Joe is a sucker for the orgasm not the foreplay. I think he's a developing Bluesman.
@Barefoot67 Obviously you don't play the guitar. I figured out how to play blue on black in less than 10 minutes. I would expect this song to take me much much much longer. Kenny Wayne shepherd is a good guitar player in his own rite - but most certainly he is NOT a Joe Bonamassa.
@Julien13450:18 When he slides up the neck of the guitar to do the fill. You can hear the difference in the pentatonic and the blues scales. There are an extra few notes in the blues scale that are not in the pentatonic scale. Although, if you didn't know that beforehand - it would be easy to mistake the two.
@naxi55500555 He doesn't use spacing that well. He's just playing continously with no real pauses. Thats not a solo, where's the tension, and journey?
@Julien1345 I totally agree. U can learn a song note for note but u will never really play the blues unless you really put some heart and soul and feeling into it.
It's because with blues, you're not really playing notes, you're singing them with your guitar. at least, i think that's how it's supposed to work. The notes being played may be based on a scale but it makes no difference, as it's all about the notes coming from the heart.
that's my take on blues at least. there are endless amounts of creative solos and ideas (especially on electric guitar), but when it comes to blues, I compare it most to singing.
I love Joe so much. Perfect combo of genius guitar talent from a young age + equal parts humility + equil part of a great singing voice and finally.....the blessing of a blues god BB King. Bonamassa will be a King in a few years and EVERYONE will know about him. But those of you who have followed him......We knew all along didn't we!
I think he knows a whole lot of them...he studied classical guitar for awhile so he knows many of his scales, and if you check out like the rockapalast show he shows off some of his skill. I realize you didn't mean to diss but those six guys just see but does he and automatically assumes you're trying to be a dick.
wow, my comment was actually deleted, aren't we a bit sensitive? Well, not all blues is boring, I like Kenny Wayne Shepherd a lot, Jimi Hendrix and others, it's just so restricting, the song structure and the scales. That's what I meant, In step fx is one of my favorite records so I guess I didnt express what I meant very well
@Barefoot67 "The Blues", before someone's actually -playing- it, has no sound. Each player must put himself into the music. It's the opposite of restricting: It's virtually one big open space, to fill as you choose. If a player's not competent, energetic, dynamic, sensitive, sincere, original, or creative, -his- blues will be boring. There's no boring style of music, only boring performances.
@lazur1 sure i agree with that, and I do like some blues like Kenny Wayne Shepher and a lot of SRV. However, the blues in this clip to me is incredibly boring, just mindless blues shred that we've heard a billion times before, same runs etc
@Barefoot67 Agreed Barefoot, there is something about this guy I don't like. I can't figure it out really. Some stuff is great but for the most part...eh I don't know, he's meh to me.

@brucefan181 In your opinion friend! that's what is great about music it's personal taste, technically Duane Allman is a good Guitarist but he don't rock my boat.

blues in general is pretty boring to me, I mean it's pretty much the same licks repeated over and over handed over from one generation to the next. It's cool sometimes if it's someone really talented like Kenny Wayne Shepherd or this guy but I'd never want to be a straight blues player
@shaunbdouglass i don't agree, If you listen to his IMO best album Trouble is, he's definitely got his own lead style and sound. He owes a lot to Hendrix sure, but so does every blues player. KWS has got a much more distinct sound than Bonamassa and cooler, more soulful IMO
@shaunbdouglass I don't agree. KWS has got a much more distinct and unique soloing style compared to Bonamassa. Listen to Trouble Is, it's brillant playing.
I've seen Joe once and am travelling from Ireland to see him in Germany in May. I always wonder whether I prefer the Nimmo Brothers to Joe (I think they have similar styles)-I think the Nimmos are more blues, but I really do love Joe B.!! I can't wait to see him live again.
thanks for the video.....can't wait till march when he's back in new jersey...so if he's playing royal albert hall....does that mean he can play carnegie hall?? sure hope so!!!!!
He would sell out Carnegie Hall no problem !Only thing now that he is starting to play huge halls does this mean the end of the small much more in your face gigs ?
Yes I was just reading that on his website,he has the flu,will be worth the wait though as his gigs are awesome.Tickets for the Albert Hall show go on sale end of the month.....my Xmas pressie request lol

Don't agree, i know this comparison is used a lot but i firmly believe its true that he sounds too much like SRV a lot of the time

I've seen Joe once and am travelling from Ireland to see him in Germany in May. I always wonder whether I prefer the Nimmo Brothers to Joe (I think they have similar styles)-I think the Nimmos are more blues, but I really do love Joe B.!! I can't wait to see him live again.
