Go and buy it. this is his first album that i heard and it's a great album for someone who new with Joe. I have to say. this album is amazing.
When I saw Joe perform it live it seemed more heartfelt, and I liked it much more. Overall this is a fantastic album -- Joe at his best. This album does the best job so far of capturing the experience of seeing Joe live. The version of "Sloe Gin" on this album is like what I saw live, and it's one of the best songs on this album. If you can't see Joe live, this is the next best thing. "Woke up Dreaming" is my favorite track because it captures the amazing energy Joe puts into his live performances. I didn't like the song "Sloe Gin" on the Sole Gin album -- it seemed saccharin to me.
Perfect duet with two instruments, the voice and the guitar. The soul in the voice, along with the guitar, and it's all there. Turn it up. Wow, this music just makes me feel something so powerful, it's hard to describe, and unless you hear it for yourself, you won't know what you are missing. I've listened to great blues guitar players, but without that sound, you know, the one that comes from the gut, they don't always make the grade. Joe Bonamassa has both the gut-check in the voice, AND them he accompanies that voice with his guitar.
simply amazing. i saw joe do this same set last year in jacksonville, and this is almost as good as being there.
so go to if you can buy it locally. I love this CD the only qualms I have is that I could not find it localy and had to buy it online.
