Bonamassa Joe: The spirit of Rory/Live [Digipack / CD + Blu-ray]

On October 28, 2013, blues-rock star Joe Bonamassa will release Tour De Force - Live In London on Provogue Records (a division of Mascot Label Group), an unprecedented live concert event unfolding over four DVDs and four Blu-rays recorded and filmed at each of the four iconic London venues which he has previously played: The Borderline, Shepherd's Bush Empire, Hammersmith Apollo, and the Royal Albert Hall. <br/><br/>The sold-out concerts, which saw over 12.000 fans in attendance, chronicle Bonamassa's atmospheric rise from the intimate club environment of The Borderline, to the prestigious Royal Albert Hall. Every individual evening was marked by a particular theme - his early trio years, the blues, rock and roll, and an all encompassing set at the Albert Hall - and every setlist, arrangement and ensemble was designed to fit in with the evening's prescribed theme providing the viewer with four different and unique performances. Each corresponding disc in the set features a different selection from over 60 songs played from his extensive catalogue - some having never been performed live - with a different and unique band configuration to highlight the diverse elements of Bonamassa's style. <br/><br/>About the Borderline show:<br/>This 200-seat club in the heart of London was chosen to stage a revival of Bonamassa's early career power-trio jam nights. Armed with a Fender Stratocaster - Bonamassa along with a single drummer and bassist launched into a setlist marked with extended takes of songs from his first set of albums.

Joe Bonamassa går från klarhet till klarhet! Som alltid - grymma låtar, sjunger bra som alltid, lirar gitarr som bara han kan... Inspelad i Nashville, Los Angeles och på San Torini, hans band är vassare än någonsin! Han gästas av tre namnkunninga kamrater; John Hiatt, Vince Gill och sin kompis från Black Country Communion Glenn Hughes!

En hyllning till the British Blues Explosion, med otroliga versioner av låtar av Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck och Jimmy Page! Joe Bonamassa hyllade sina brittiska blues-hjältar på en kort 5-dagars turné i Storbritannien. Denna inspelning gjordes på Greenwich Music Time vid The Old Royal Naval College i Greenwich, London den 7 juli, 2016.<br/> <br/>Den brittiska bluesen är den musik som mest kommit att influera Joe Bonamassa. Redan vid unga år fastnade han för den råa och skitiga musiken som spelades i Storbritannien i mitten av sextiotalet. Särskilt fastnade han för de egensinniga och innovativa gitarristerna och då framför allt de tre tungviktarna Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck och Jimmy Page. Han hyser den djupaste respekt för vad de har åstakommit. <br/> <br/>Joe Bonamassas kärlek till den brittiska blues-rocken är själva hjärtat i all den musik som inspirerat honom och för första gången fick han tillfälle att visa sin aktning och respekt för alla dessa artister men främst då Clapton, Beck och Page.<br/> <br/>I femmannabandet ingick Michael Rhodes (bas), Reese Wynans (klaviaturer), Anton Fig (trummor) och Russ Irwin (kompgitarr och stämsång).<br/> <br/>Joe Bonamassa anser det nödvändigt att lyfta fram dessa fantastiska musiker för framtida generationers bluesartister. "Om det inte vore för dessa brittiska bluesmusiker så skulle nog inte bluesen haft den stora inverkan på rockmusiken som den har idag och skulle kanske rent av förpassats till historieböckerna," säger Bonamassa.
