Black Country Communion - FIRST LIVE PERFORMANCE - Mistreated - Hughes Bonamassa Bonham Sherinian 

I think Glenn Hughes shows that he´s a fantastic musician..a genuine artist.Great performance here.

It's amazing how strong Glenn Hughes' voice has remained after all these years. If he is still singing this good into his late sixties(let's hope even longer) I'll be blown away even more so.

Wow. Just found this. Thanks so much for posting. I was there too. I’ve been a Glenn Hughes fan since Trapeze. I still remember the total shock when Joe announces that his new band was going to play. I hadn’t heard that he had a new band

Many years ago, when such a super group got together, it hit all headlines. In this era of mediocrity it goes quite unnoticed, except for the "initiated". What a superb performance! It's so great that Glenn Hughes hasn't burned his vocal chords the way Gillan did. His range is intact as well as his playing. Thanks for sharing this gem!

Joe Bonamassa's guitar tone, Jason's drums with Glenn Hughes voice is a thing of awesomeness!

That’s how it’s done. Old school rock and roll.❤️

The Good Lord blessed this band with his own hands.

I think Glenn is the only Purple singer who's voice is in such a great shape. His voice is so strong;-)

@Gazpmsl - Thank you. It was an honor to be there, and is a privilege to be able to share it! :)

Greatest Rock Soul Singer on the planet!! Without question!!

You're welcome. Believe me, it was a great pleasure being there to shoot it, and I'm happy to share such greatness with the world. Please check out my other video from that night, and also my two videos that I shot of Joe and Glenn the first time they took the stage together (before BCC formed), just a few months earlier. They played Mistreated and Medusa. Just search through my channel. :)

These guys are unbelievalble. I think this is the best possible lineup for a band to play real rock that could ever be assembled.

Joe Bonamassa is just awesome.. Incredible. I would go see him no matter what he's playing or with whom,. So i would definitly go to see these guys.. But i would miss Bogie Bowles..

Just listened to BCC full album & i really like the mix of excellent writing,great musicianship it just so works, will be following these guys, decent rock has been crying out for this so look out!

!Wow! what a band, good band, like classics, !Rock! no bullshit. Absolutely great musicians.

POWER like I haven't heard since ....... I don't remember the last time I felt chills like this. It reminds me of the first time I heard "The Wizard" or "Black Dog"

aMAZING, GREAT PERFORMANCE!! Thanks from Brazil, dude, for this post! For those about rock, we sallute you, Black Country!!

I'm speechless!!!! AMAZING!!! Glenn RULES!!!!

Truley a New Super Band in the Making. These Established, Proffessional Musicians Will Bring Music/Rock back to where it should Be. I Wish them a Long and successful future. I will be listening for More.

...great song,from a great voice,..Glenn Hughes

totally bad ass! so glad these guys are making music together

My band mates, can't wait to hear the finished CD guys! Brilliant!

How great to be there and capture on video this great line up, what a blast. Thanks for the video :=)

all time faved!!! glenn hughes saves rock n' roll!!!

Thank you for this video, great version. Watch it every day ;)

That was kick ass. I gotta keep an eye out for these guys.

I really love these guys - I mean heck - Hughes voice has got to be the ultimate heavy rock voice - not to mention being a kickin bass player, of course Joe Bonamassa, Bonham and Sherinian -- It just doesn't get any better - great video footage to boot -- thanks for sharing !!~!

@BENJAMIN7a - Being there, at the House of Blues that night for the G.C. King of the Blues competition and seeing Joe and Glenn together in person was........ life altering. I'm so grateful I had my camera rolling then too!! Have fun at your show!

That's so cool that Glenn does those old Purple songs with his new band.

That was sooo cool. We were 3 rows behind you. This song was Gnarly. Classic DP cover done well. Yes it is young Bonham on the kit. It made my day to relive this historic moment Libby. Thanks

Absolutely superb

Love it, love it, love it! Glenn has one heck of a voice.

Can't wait for the album to drop!

Awesome performance - thanks to the Libbys

Just... amazing!

Absolutely Amazing!! Thanks for posting!

This is just amazing to see! Thank you so much for posting this. You're a Star!

Hey guys, thanks for your support. Please visit our channel and subscribe to stay in touch with us- lots of surprises coming soon!

@lukastiberio - Ha! What a wonderful comment. Thank you so much. That makes what I do all worthwhile. It is my great pleasure to shoot and share things like this, but so nice to hear such positive feedback. I appreciate you taking the time to say such kind things. :)

Excellent Libby once again. Must have been an awesome show. :)

WOW ... That's Great !!! Thank you for uploading !!!

...Glenn getting better just like old wine.KUDOS

@robvoodoogrooves - So glad you've enjoyed it so much! The name - Black Country - it seems is still up in the air. I labeled the video with it, because that was the original working name of the band and I knew people would search for it. Once the decision has been made, I will probably change the title of the video. Seems there is another band with that name and there are some legalities involved..... Best, Libby :)

@scottkernperry - You're welcome. Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad I could be there to capture for everyone who couldn't be!! :))

Yes, Joe is growing continuously - I don't think we have anything to worry about as fans. :)

No.... he hasn't lost one iota of IT. :) The energy is incredible.....

@jspero61 - Thank YOU for the kind words. I had a blast that night and am so happy to have been able to shoot and share a bit of the MAGIC with you.

Can't wait to see them at the seceret gig in London tonight. I am also interviewing the band for my radio show. I get to chat to them tomorrow, with the interview going out on Thursday23rd Sept on Phoenix Radio

This is so good!! I can not wait for the album to come out!!! Geln is still so good, hasn't lost it at all!!!

Nice job on the vid, thanks for posting!! Can't wait 'til Sept. 21st!!

The Voice of Rock cantando como nunca!!!

It's amazing! Thank you for recording this!

Incredible!!!

Ok...I've been a little burnt with Glenn Hughes (my all time favorite singer and influence) for the goofy things he says in the Facebook feed. This is the first time I've heard BCC. I gotta admit...they friggin' rock. And Glenn's voice is shreddin'. The dude is 70 years old!!! Kudos Dude!!!

Thanks! looks like Glenn is looking right at you

Hello fellow Riversider. I was there. Riverside municipal auditorium. All around great show. Got off work late and dog tired. Decided to go by myself at the last minute on the way home and I'm so glad I did. Ritchie is the reason I play guitar and BURN is my fav lp so to hear Glenn and the boys play mistreated was great. Thanks for uploading this. Joe did a great acoustic solo spot that I recorded on my blackberry but the quality is crap. If you have it and can upload it that would be great.

@libbysvideos - Thanks for the video, it smokes! Too bad I couldn't be there, but awesome job!!!

@TheManicAlien - It was in Riverside, CA, on 3/17/10. They played after Joe played a full set with his solo band.

@Frunnick - Agreed. Either way, I'd see them, and love them.... but Bogie is very special to me. I want to make sure that you see the FIRST two videos I shot of Joe and Glenn, because they played with BOGIE. See the other 'Mistreated' and also 'Medusa' on my channel. Enjoy!!

@mmmmna - Thank you for your very positive message. If you have not seen Joe live, either with his own band or with BCC you simply must. I was not only there for this performance, but also was there six months earlier - the first night that Joe and Glenn ever played together and the band was formed in the MINDS of those who could make it happen (Kevin Shirley, etc.). That was an unbelievable night too. Look through my videos for the two I shot that night. I was forever altered. Enjoy. :)

@bonzoters - You're welcome - it's my pleasure. It was an incredible ending to an awesome night!! :))

@shredfreek - Ahhhh.... what a nice comment to end the day with. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and kind words. The band is awesome.... just you WAIT until you hear the CD that will be out in September..... wow..... :)

Awesome video, thx posting!

Thank you Libby! great video and song!

@Cameron4963 - Good choice. SUPPORT THE ARTISTS whose work you enjoy and believe in. Simple as that.

This is one of The very Best Songs all over ! And take a look whos on Stage , J.Bonamassa, Glen Hughes, Jason Bonham usw. It has to be good , very good :)

You see with a trap set you're forced to do more with less.. and really brings out the creativity.. and Jason has it in spades 🤘🤘🤘

Yes, it is. :)

Oh how I hope and pray that this catches on, because it could take the direction of rock music back to where it should be. This is the real shit here...none of this half-ass-hardly-can-play crap that passes for "rock" these days. These guys are legendary and of course each is talented beyond words. What a band!

@fendermytc90 - Indeed, it was great, and it was my pleasure to shoot it and share it!! :)

Just hoping Glenn and Toni Iommi can do one more album together.

Hey Libby, It's Johnny from Solana Beach. This is sooooooo AMAZING, I have not stopped playing the disc or the vinyl since it came out. Going to see Joe at both The Grove and down here in San Diego next month. I keep tellin' ya I'll buy ya a drink at a show, so make sure we say hello, cause I know you'll be at both!

that is amazing!

this is amazing..

@Sprintimeboy - Great comment, thank you. :) !!

They need to record this song!!

Hey Libby, I hope you are doing OK. We all LOVE your video's, very high quality, and you seem to be there, ALL THE TIME! lol Take care, and get well soon. Johnny J

Jason should have never left Ludwig.. these sound amazing I saw him yet last year with the DW said it sound like he was playing the cases.. Ludwig has a very identifiable crushing not to mention he just knows how to tune his there's no beating a Ludwig supraphonic.. like father like son.. these sound amazing.. he finally went paiste..🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Great Vid Libby....Joe's forum is none to happy about Glenn's performance...WTF?! I thought they were GREAT!

@andresc228 - I think that Glenn would say that drugs very NEARLY ruined his life.... but , I can personally assure you that he is alive and well, sober and clean, and at the top of his game. He is gifted, great,and, most of all, extremely grateful.

Bravo!J'aime bien!

@BluesMistress - You're most welcome. How could I NOT share such fabulousness?? :))

@JBJHJM - Thank you for your enthusiasm!! I couldn't agree more!! :))

This is the best!

Deep Purple's "Burn": One of the greatest progressive rock albums ever made.

You guys are going to be brutally good when you gained just an inch more experience on stage! Very cool performance!

Awesome my friend,so glad you posted this,i`ve been listen to them alot on planet rock the last two weeks,i have pre ordered the album which comes out here today/tomorrow,cant wait to blast that out loud and heavy,,They are playing a gig in a secret location somewhere in London tonight,and it will be broadcasted on planet rock radio station tonight at 21:00...check it out i cant wait..

@ledheadbobh yes. We are.

Thank you. Is that my friend Graeme in Scotland? It WAS an awesome show.... I feel very fortunate to have been there. :)

That rocks!!

I feel Richie Blackmore should be playing on that stage, and give me Joe Bonamassa playing his solo work, which I feel is better. I think Joe sounds way better on vocals, but I do Love Glens pipes. he shows he's still got them too. I saw Joe Bonamassa at Albert Hall, and that show just can't be beat. I do Love Jason's drum work. I am very pleased to see him jamming again. It's to bad Jimmy didn't put Zeppelin back together.Thanks for a great video. this is my favorite D.P. tune. Keep the peace.

These guys remind me of Humble Pie rocking the Filmore. Even better. Yikes, how many people alive can hit those notes? Speaking of notes, Joe Bonamassa is already moving to the top of the legend's totem pole.

wow, that was quite impressing! much more than what happenes to some other DP songs these days^^ hopefully this band will not collapse because of some management problems they seemed to have, and be able to record and tour at its own will, e.g. JLTs new Rainbow seems to be managed very strangely, why don't they tour like mad, what they should have done to establish themselves... even Tony Carey left because of these things... hope this one workes out fine.

... well, not quite ALL the time, but MOST of the time. lol Thank you very much for your kind words. I'm getting well as quickly as I can, and hope to shoot some new Joe footage in a few weeks. Be well and safe. L

thanks for the clip and nice camarawork

To jimmystreets- I sure hope your're right, cause this is an awesome line-up!!!

@DieNetaDie - thank YOU for the kind words. :)

First time seeing JB with a LP Custom.

@demrayhalen - No they didn't. The band formerly known as 'Black Country' only performed the two songs I have on my channel. Prior to that, Joe and his regular band performed a whole set. The theremin was used during that part of the show.

Well I just hope they will play in Germany. Superior. Awesome. Fantastic. Absolute great. Yeah that guy can really really, REALLY sing.
