BRITISH BLUES EXPLOSION LIVE (2 DVD)

Megjelenés: 2018-05-18

Joe Bonamassa paid tribute to his British Blues heroes during a short but very sweet tour of Britain – 5 performances only in 2016. This show was recorded at Greenwich Music Time in The Old Royal Naval College on July 7, 2016. Joe Bonamassa has been more influenced by the impact of British Blues than by any other music out there. From a young age, the musically inclined Joe fell in love with the hard-rocking, gritty and edgy sound that emanated from mid-1960’s. This is especially true of the highly innovative and evocative guitar music produced by three of the field’s greatest heavyweights, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. Joe passionately believes in the need for this and future generations of blues musicians to continue to explore the music of these three icons of Blues history. “If it wasn't for certain British musicians of the early 1960s, the Blues may very well never have exploded into Rock music as we know it today, and indeed may have passed into history,” said Joe. This could not be more true. The explosion of British Blues that occurred in the 1960s builds an essential bridge between the Blues and Rock music, two forms of popular music that have meant so much to so many people over the last century.
