Product Description

CD Description

Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Beth Hart, known for her raw and powerful blues-rock sound, wraps her expressive vocals around classic soul covers on Don’t Explain, an album that grew out of her friendship with guitarist Joe Bonamassa. Produced by Kevin Shirley (Joe Bonamassa, Led Zeppelin, Black Crowes), the album features Hart’s scorching interpretations of ten songs, with Bonamassa on guitar and his ace band filling out the tracks.

A Eureka Moment... 3 Dec 2011
Format:Audio CD
I purchased cd this week after listening to the last verse of 'Your Heart is as Black As Night' on Radio 2. I had to google the name of the song and the artist, as the DJ went on to talk about something else as it ended. I bought this on the back of these last few lines and did not know what I would get. To say I am blown away is an understatement. I dont normally listen to Blues but I have played this non stop since it arrived today! Brilliant. Her voice is amazing, and the guitar is exemplary. I would recommend it to anyone!!

" Don't explain" 21 Mar 2012
Format:MP3 Download|Amazon Verified Purchase
Fantastic album. Beth hart excells on this one as does Joe Bonamassa on guitar as always. Beth should have had more publicity as this album just states that it is Joe Bonamassa and no mention of Beth when it is her voice that absolutely "makes" this album what it is, an amazing, fantastic jewel of all albums. Listen to it and see what I mean :)

Format:Vinyl
I've got a wide taste in music. Reggae,Blues,Soul,Indie etc. I've only listened to this album twice but I can safely say I'll be listening to this in 20 years(if I'm still here). It's timeless music which improves on the originals. This is the first I've heard of either artist and the combination is brilliant. His guitar work is superb but subtle, and her voice goes from smooth to rough. On the slower songs her voice reminds me of Rebecca Ferguson's. The album has your feet tapping one minute then listening intently on the slower tracks. Turn the lights down pour yourself a whiskey or bourbon and enjoy.
I hope they make many more albums together and don't experiment too much-simply make more of the same. I really don't think it can be improved upon. I wish I knew their email addresses to beg them to get together on a permanent basis. The album has gone into my all time favourites it's that good.

Nice to see something being made in the modern era that is as good as anything done in the sixties/seventies.
The album deserves to sell in it's millions.

By the way the vinyl is nicely pressed and is very quiet. It came shrink wrapped and the cover wasn't damaged as sometimes happens. It's got a nice dynamic range and is the recording is not too compressed.

Fine collaboration! Four & a half stars.
For me, a collaboration that's more than the sum of it's parts.

Beth Hart's a great singer, but not all of her material is to my taste, e.g. Read more

Great modern blues album
Our bass player turned me onto this album. As I had never really 'got' Joe Bonamassa I wasn't expecting much from it. However I was in for a big surprise. Read more

Excellent modern blues
I am a traditional blues enthusiast. But Bonamassa and Hart deliver modern blues with real overall sense of blues tradition.

Simply Wonderful, Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa, Don't Explain
This is quite simply the best album I have ever heard, bar none. Beth's vocals are either achingly beautiful or gritty and raucous, depending on the song. Read more

Some excellent songs
The songs that are good are very good and the guitar playing excellent but perhaps would only really appeal to those who like this kind of music

What a bouble act.
This is a great cd from a great pairing.

Beth Hart's rasping voacls are great for the blues and with Bonamassa's silky guitar work this is one of the best cd's I have... Read more
