Like alot of people, I wondered who would ever pick up the mantle from Stevie Ray Vaughan, probably the greatest blue guitarist in history. SRV had such soul, fire, and killer excitement in his playing, and although we love Clapton, Hendrix, Beck, etc., no one else really had the X Factor that pushed all the buttons like Stevie. Well, enter Joe B.! This performance in Germany has made a life-long fan out of me. You just have to see this guy rip through originals and classic blues with a soul-searing style that gives me goosebumps! Playing a Stratocaster, rather than his trademark Les Paul, Joe hits the heights and delivers pacing, drive, dynamics, feel, color, and burning tone to the MAX! Sound quality is very good and camera work even better. A GREAT DVD!
Some great moments in this one. The band is tight, the energy is high and the cover of Blind Faith's " Had to cry today" might make you do just that...with tears of joy!!

A buddy turned me on to this. It hit me right between the eyes/ears. Bonamassa gets such a good tone, and what a trick bag. I've never seen anybody do those volume swells that fast. Hes a great guitar player- tasteful, technical, speed & tone. I had to have my own copy. I enjoyed it as much as Stevie Ray @ the El Mocambo, its more of a rock thing than a blues in my opinion. If you like Gary Moore, SRV, Steve Morse, ect. I bet you'll like this! My humble opinion, Odell Wilson-Fat Boy South.
I'VE SEEN JOE A FEW TIMES & AS USUAL HE RIPPED IN SO MANY WAYS , IT'S HARD TO LOOK @ HIM & TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE AWESOME SOUNDS HE BRINGS THREW HIS GUITARS. HE PLAYS SO FLAWLESS. I TOOK A COUPLE OF FRIENDS TO SEE HIM @ VOODOO LOUNGE IN ST. LOUIS. THEY NOW HAVE THIS DVD AS WELL AS HIS CDs. IF YOU EVER GET A CHANCE TO SEE JOE DO YOUR BEST TO SEE HIM. HE'S ALWAYS ON THE ROAD. HE MIGHT BE IN YOUR TOWN SOON.P.S. IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW JOE PLAYED WITH BB KING WHEN HE WAS 12 YEARS OLD.
Fantastic show, this just blew me away! Joe holds nothing back here. If you like the Royal Albert Hall show, be sure to check this one out too! A younger and rawer Joe really showcases the amazing talent he has. The filming was done really well and the quality is excellent. My only regret was that I didn't buy this sooner!
