Joe is building his legend, little by little, always with a surprise. He had an incredible 2011 with his solo, Beth Hart duet, and Black Country Communion super-group CDs. In 2012 he has already issued one of the best music videos ever (I think) - the New York concert - and now we are treated with this fantastic album. I have all his albums and this is in my opinion his best studio work. Songs are great, and I'm very glad with his version of "Stones in my passway", which he successfully covers without trying to tread in Johnson's, or even Clapton's, steps. Invited luminaries are Jimmy Barnes and Brad Whitford (from Aerosmith), and I think by now it is time to stop talking about it and to just recommending anyone readign this to BUY THIS NOW.

Cant believe how long this guy has been around and I've only just discovered him.
This album is the best blues rock album I've heard for years.
Stunning guitar riffs, and that track with Jimmy Barnes is to die for !!
Bridges the gap left by Gary Moore and Jeff Healey.

I don't know how Joe Bonamassa manages to produce CD after CD with so much vitality while also undertaking such a long touring schedule plus a radio show. He is a rock blues artist and this CD leans towards his blues side, despite covering songs by Bill Withers & Tom Waits. I love his versions of Robert Johnson's `Stones In My Passway' and Howlin Wolf's `Who's Been Talking' which has an intro of about 30 seconds of an interview with Howlin Wolf. (and it works). However the stand out track for me is his version of the Bill Withers classic, `Lonely Town Lonely Street.' Joe Bonamassa fans will not be disappointed, and this CD is also a good introduction for those that are new to this great artist.

Bon Masta
Excellent blues guitarist with a decent voice as well. This is a strong album but for me one or 2 of the tracks are not quite up to the standard of the rest

Ex-Lax cured the Stones in my Passway
Every once in a while an artist releases an album that is a real game changer. It doesn't just exist as an exemplar of the zeitgeist, it defines the new zeitgeist. Read more

great album
I really like Joe Bonamassa and if you follow him on facebook, you can download most of the tracks on this album for free, which is a bit frustrating when you have bought it. Read more

This is definitely one of the best albums I have listened to in a long time. Bonamassa's guitar playing is masterful and his voice just has the right edge to it. Read more

Hearing aid batteries
They just do what they say. Good value for money, but have gone up in price since last year. Why?

Excellent
Joe Bonamassa was new to me. I really enjoyed his superb guitar playing, very much in the 60/70's tradition of blues guitar playing. Read more

Another solid if unremarkable record
Joe B's been cranking out albums like his life depended on it, both solo and with the imminently-defunct Black Country Communion, and while he's managed to gather an impressive... Read more
