Black Rock by Joe Bonamassa | Album Review

Black Rock is the latest release from the Blues/Rock guitaring maestro that is, Joe Bonamassa. I could say living legend but if he has only recently passed my ears then I’ve either my head in the sand or his riffs haven’t carried over to me far enough.
Having recently played at the Royal Albert Hall with living legend Eric Clapton – that was more appropriate I think – I noticed his performance is truly heartfelt, honestly passionate and very powerful too. This is the kind of mature music my father would have listened to and loved. Now I have to say, being as the candles are further burning for me, I am falling for this too. This is done the way it should be.
He has great soul and a voice that simply speaks the truth. I have found that Blues music to this degree with quoting any movies has to be lived and experienced to be able to genuinely sing and play it with your heart and spirit. He feels the music he sings, it’s a part of him and the guitaring is a blessing. I have heard many acts over the years doing their best to eminate the greats but it is such a refreshing experience for me to listen to a great with some up-to-date – already – classics.
