FIRST TIME HEARING Joe Bonamassa - Going Down | Live at the Greek Theatre 

His bass player, Michael Rhodes, passed away recently. He will be sorely missed. A talented man and a good dude. I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around that.

You have opened a very deep rabbit hole with Joe he also has surrounded himself with the best musicians and singers

Joe is one of the finest master blues rock guitarists. I'm surprised that there are people who haven't heard of him.

There are legends on this stage. Reese Wynans on keyboards from Stevie Ray Vaugn and Double Trouble and Anton Fig from David Letterman. And of course, Joe! B.!!!

Simply put ..the best blues musician on planet Earth .. His stuff with Beth Hart will warp your mind

That boy sure knows how to put on a show. Love the background singers and that entire band is fire. Wow!

Once you start listening to the great J.B you never stop

I've been fortunate enough to see Reese play the keys as a young man with SRV, and as a world class veteran musician with Joe. Always memorable shows.

Black Country Communion - Collide (Official Music Video) is some of Joe's best blues rock work. This band is absolutely incredible. Sounds like a “Zeppelin-Purple.” Every musician in this band is incredible, and everyone puts his mastery on the record. The groovy rhythm section of Jason Bonham, along with Glenn Hughes’s brilliant bass playing, the mystical keyboards of Derek Sherinian's "Dream Theater", and Joe Bonamassa’s soulful guitar playing are bringing the old blues to rock into reality, and, course, The Voice of Rock Glenn Hughes who’s never getting old - this guy is getting better and better, he will never stop, he is fantastic!!! So, another excellent album for Rock ‘N’ Roll music history.

You really need to check out something from the collaboration between Joe and Beth Hart. She is an amazing blues vocalist. Please check them out. “I’ll Take Care If You” or maybe “I’d Rather Go Blind”. Trust me, the fantastic choices don’t stop there, you will love it ♥️✌🏼😎

Joe is the very best blues guitarist alive and 2/3 of the world doesn’t know he exists. He tours constantly as well. His band is phenomenal and they always put on a great show.

There are legends then there is joe bonammasa awesome ❤❤❤

Sal…if you get a chance to see him live GO! He is touring allot, so probably you’ll get a chance soon. Don’t miss it. One of the best concerts I’ve been to. He is a superlative player who has his own style, but also can also sound like Hendrix or Page or SRV. A master of his instrument. Thank you to your patron for this! More Bonamassa please!

I HIGHLY Recommend watching Joe Bonamassa' s performance of "Just Got Paid " that he performed at the Royal Albert Hall ... You WILL be BLOWN AWAY !!!

Bonamassa by far and wide regarded one of the absolute best guitarist on the planet by other premier guitarist. I had the good fortune to see him several times starting out when he was starting out to places that held maybe 100 people. Now he’s rockin the Royal Albert Hall, red rocks, consistently selling out and always with top notch, as the one reviewer noted legends on the stage playing with him. Always a phenomenal show when he tours in your area and he tours every year you have got to go see him

I've had the privilege of seeing Joe Bonamassa live. He's definitely one of the greatest guitarists of all time and I've seen, SRV, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, David Gilmore, Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shepherd etc. Can I just say that not only is Joe one of the best guitarists but he's definitely THE best dressed guitarist of all time.

Mr. Bonamassa is not only a great guitarist ( maybe the greatest ), HE CAN SING! So can that lady leading the back up singers, Mahalia Barnes. Great band! Reese Wynans on keys. Anton Fig on drums. Maurice Roades on bass. And great brass section. Hard to beat! Check out the double disc " Live at the Greek Theater ". Awesome show. "Angel of Mercy", "Cadillac Assembly Line", "Never Make Your Move Too Soon", "Let The Good Times Roll" (featuring Mahalia singing, AWESOME!) are some of my favorites.

Fun fact his back up singers are legends on their own the young lady on the right is Jimmy Barns daughter a Australian legend.

The entire show is great song after song. He’s so good.

I think this is a first? Never seen anyone react to JB. Outstanding! That's Reese Wynan on piano/keys, Stevie Ray Vaughn's ex pianist/keyboardist.

Oh YES. Joe is the best blues living right now!!!

I'm pretty much a hard rock fan and didn't discover Joe until 2018. Saw him in concert in Montgomery, AL and it was great from start to finish. He is now one of my favorite guitarist regardless of genre.

This is hands down one of my short list favorite live performances of all time. Molten Lava 🔥 hot. Horns, killer guitar work as usual and dude on the keys just nuked it

We see Joe B at least once a year and more if we can. His shows are high energy fabulous!

Watch Joe at his Albert Hall concert.......every song is great!

Reese, the keyboard player, was the keyboard for Stevie Ray Vaughan. Go ahead and go down the bonamassa rabbit hole, he's the best that is still alive, ever since Stevie Ray passed

his concert at Royal Albert hall is the first time I heard him on opb, he's amazing, I went out and bought five of his cd's

Joe Bonamassa was a child prodigy, at age 9 he was already in a band with guys 20 years older than him, by age 12 he was touring with BB King. He is considered one of the top 10 blues guitarists in the World. Another song from this same concert you will enjoy is "Breaking Up Somebody's Home" live at the Greek Theatre. You should also check out Joe Bonamassa & Beth Hart "I'd Rather Go Blind" live in Amsterdam, "Close to My Fire" live in Amsterdam. There are so many more, he has an extensive catalog. Out of 15 albnums he produced himself, 13 went to #1. Please review more!

This was 2015. He just scored his 28th #1 blues album Live at the Hollywood Bowl. He's played in 3 piece, 9 piece and all between. The album just released he is backed by an orchestra!!!!! You should hear his voice now ❤️‍🔥! He is called the Titan of blues because he has stretched it in so many ways. The performance you just watched was a special tour the did called the 3 Kings Tour. BB King, Albert King and Freddie King.

Since you know little if anything about the Blues genre, welcome to the greatest form of music ever created. You are in for a lifelong series of musical treats that are ... indescribable. You just have to experience them! The blues is the basis of literally all modern music. That is why so many people gravitate toward it so strongly, especially as you grow older. You realize that all the genres you have listened to previously, with the exception of rap and hip hop, have their glorious roots in the blues. The other two may have a smattering of the blues but will not last long enough to matter when all is said and done. "Mountain Time" from Joe's 'Live at Albert Hall' in London 2009 is a must hear, if I can offer you a most choice selection from his repertoire! 🎸😎👌

Joe's awesome!

Thank you for not stopping mid-song to offer an opinion,Joe and this band has everything ,horns,piano great percussion,rhythm sec etc.etc.and i love the chicks workin' it boy.......!!

Joe don't do no bad , that's Joe's band and his backup singers all world class Musicians

Joe is simply Phenomenal. And his get togethers with Beth like others have said are truly tremendous. Hello Salvo ❤❤

shout out to the band and Anton figg on drums from letterman try John Henry next aliha

You could do a Bonamassa month and I would be there for every second of it!

You must go see him live!! He will ring you out!

Eric Clapton is a big fan of his and has guested on some of his gigs.....not too shabby!

Don't know if you've reviewed Jimmy Barnes, the Australian rock and blues singing icon from the band Cold Chisel but two of the backup singers in this clip that are on the right-hand side of the three female singers are Jimmy's two eldest daughters. Both have solo careers of their own to varying degrees of success.

Love his song "let's drive"

Some other rockers by Joe are John Henry and Just Got Paid (cover of ZZ Top song). He blows the roof off with them! Sloe Gin is another. And for a gorgeous slow song…Mountain Time. There’s an official video of Just Got Paid at the RAH in which Joe does a bit of Dazed and Confused…including with a theremin!

Him and Beth Hart are a must.

Just saw Joe at the hard rock in Hollywood Florida. He put on one hell of a show. There are no words that could express how great he is and his band members. He is truly one of the best!

I randomly clicked on this video and I'm glad I did, that was awesome!

Reese Wynans on keys. I love him and shows his talent on many of Joe Bs songs. He was keys for SRV back in the day!

6:09 Dude this song it wasnso like heaven badass music rock 'n' roll🎸✊✨🔥🔥

if you liked this check out Joe Bonamassa Riding with the kings with one of his backing singers Mahalia Barnes taking lead vocals like her father Jimmy Barnes she is a powerhouse

Joe IS my favorite current artist.

Going Down was a track from the Jeff Beck Group back in the 60's or early 70;s!

JoeBo has had more number one blues albums than anyone in history, including his mentor, the late great BB King, 25 to date. He constantly reinvents his music but still remains loyal to his blues base. This keeps it fresh. Up there as one of the top guitarists on the planet. As a person he is a very humble guy, and runs a charity called keeping the blues alive, which has raised over $1million so far

That's Reese Wynans, former keyboard player for Stevie Ray.

SalvoG, this is actually pretty tame for Joe….You hadn’t seen Bonamassa before, but you have done two pervious reactions for BETH HART with whom Joe has collaborated with for 3 studio blues and soul cover albums in 2011, 2013, and 2018. There’s a phenomenal DVD of their concert in support of their 2013 Grammy-nominated ‘Seesaw’ album. Joe now has 25 #1 Blues albums on Billboard-every time he puts out an album, it debuts at #1. Right about the old guy, as others have mentioned, he is Reese Wynans who had joined Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble in 1985 (and Joe in 2015). Joe always plays with top players, often in a 9-piece band. Even the “background” singers are top shelf singers in their own right…. Here’s a list of 8 suggestions for JOE and 8 for BETH & JOE together: JOE BONAMASSA SUGGESTIONS: 1) “I’ll Play the Blues For You” (From 2015 ‘Live at the Greek Theatre’ concert in LA): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qoX0Olfqziw.html 2) “Sloe Gin” (From 2014 Muddy Wolf at Red Rocks concert in Colorado): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pvvgZMGp5Uo.html 3) “The Ballad of John Henry” (From 2018 Royal Albert Hall in London): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-U27NxXGZNZQ.html 4) “Woke Up Dreaming” (From 2009 Royal Albert Hall in London; acoustic solo): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HLoOnBbDeeQ.html 5) “The Thrill is Gone” (From 2015 ‘Live at the Greek Theatre’ concert in LA): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CD1CYMPNSis.html 6) Midnight Blues” (From Live at the Beacon Theatre in NYC, 2017): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8z74lr3txUk.html 7) ‘Woke Up Dreaming” (Acoustic version with Tina Guo; From Live at Carnegie Hall, 2017): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HM1M6p1fiUM.html 8) “Just Got Paid”…mixed with other stuff!

Joe Bonamassa is a MUST !!!! ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

Joe is AWESOME!!! Have seen him 3 times. You should check out Ana Popovic & Kenny Wayne Shepherd, both awesome guitarist s, song “ Sexy Tonight “. Another great blues rock song.

Live, he will totally blow you out the doors!

one of his prettiest and deep songs is called mountain time

Gotta hear Joe and Beth Hart “I’d Rather go Blind” from Live in Amsterdam. Also Joe and Jimmy Barnes doing “Stone Cold”.

I love watching female backup singers. They never seem to get the credit they deserve.

Reece Wynans is the Keyboard Player ... He was the Keyboard Player for Stevie Ray Vaughn's band - Double Trouble .. He is also in the R&R Hall of Fame

I ran across him few years ago and he is off the chain few months back seen him in biloxi for 2.15 mins he did not let up

I was surprised how he skated over the fact that he was the support act to BB KIng aged just 12!

Im glad you liked my request. I first introduced you to Beth Hart and now her soulmate Joe. You have to checkout some of the many songs they have done together In case no one has mentioned it yet that guy on the keyboards used to be the keyboard player for Stevie Ray Vaughn Ive seen joe 3 times and every show was great. Love the backround singers :)

Reese Wynans on piano and B3 organ, use to play with Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble.

The guy on keys is Reese Wynans from Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Troublein

One of the backup singers is Jimmy Barnes' daughter. She and Joe did a song, riding with the king.

Bonamassa is a fantastic artist. His singing was not a strong point early in his career, especially on his first couple of albums, which are more blues rock than his other albums. However, he has worked on that and is now a fantastic singer too. Look into Pain and Sorrow, Mountain Time (Live), A New Day Yesterday, his Dust Bowl & Redemption CDs, Ballad of John Henry, Sloe Gin, This Train, Mountain Climbing or his work with Beth Hart or Black Country Communion (Deep Purplish). He just has so many great songs, a lot of which he composed himself.

Reese steals the show on this one, can't get enough of this song. You need to review Jeff Beck's 1972 version on the Jeff Beck Group albumn for context.

You should also check out Joe Bonamassa and Beth Hart perform I’d Rather Go Blind. She is an equally mind blowing singer. Loved your reaction. I’ll be checking out your other reactions!

You should check him out on Live Fom the Royal Albert Hall.

The pianist is Reese Wynans, who played keys with Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble. The drummer is Anton Fig, who was the drummer on the David Letterman Show with Paul Shaffer and the World's Most Dangerous Band.

Joe is so Damn Smooth.

Most excellent- Cup of Joe! Blues Man!😎🎶

Welcome to the Bonamassa world.

Big fan of Bonamasa

Joe can really sing not just good but really really good 😊

I WOULD MIC DROP COMMENT, BUT YOUR BONAMMASSA JOURNEY HAS JUST BEGUN😂

That's the reaction I would expect from that song cause it was my reaction as well! Love the reaction when he finally comes onstage! It's like, WOW!! BTW, the guy on the piano is Reese Wynans! And doing a fantastic intro !

The man on keys is Reese Wynans. He played for SRV.

Bonamassa did an awesome Zeppelin medley, live from Prince Albert's Hall, which is truly one of his best pieces of work.

Robert knows his guitarists!

Yeah Joe Bonamosa and Jeff Beck, are two 2⃣ of the best blue eyed blues guitar players in modern Rock and pop music industry right now what with the deaths and retirements of a a few of the blue eyed blues masters in the last few years and Joe ,and Jeff are the go to guys lately that some of the remaining old school, masters of old school blues for on stage jam sessions 😊😅😮😢😂😂❤😂😊❤😊❤

Joe is a modern day Blues Master who pays tribute and respect to the Masters before him; from his incredible guitar mastery even down to wearing good clothes onstage like BB King, Muddy Waters and others would do.

Yeah boy....the brother is feeling it! Good reaction bro! 😎👌

Joe one of the best I ever heard on electric

He does two Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea cruises a year. Spring in the Caribbean and late summer in the Mediterranean. The line up will knock your socks off. Going,again!

IMO, now that EVH has passed Joe is the best alive on guitar! Yes, he was a Prodigy and checking out Joe isnt quite enough, You have to checkout his stuff with Beth Hart, who was also a Prodigy. Those 2 are the King and Queen of modern Blues. "I`ll Take care of you" is a good one to start with! Also, checkout his Guitar Duels with Eric Gales!

Joe you are Nr One. 👍🤟😁

REESE WYNANS "Keyboards" Reese Wynans was a member of the Second Coming, which, from November 1968 to February 1969 also included two future and founding members of The Allman Brothers Band: guitarist Dickey Betts and bassist Berry Oakley. Wynans joined Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble in 1985, playing keyboards on Soul to Soul and In Step and played with the band until Stevie Ray Vaughn’s tragic death in 1990.

That’s Reese Wynans on keyboards. He played for Stevie Ray Vaughan. Another Blues guitarist, the best in my estimation. Joe runs a close second.

You are one of the very few people who don't stop the music every 15 seconds so they can run their mouths. I am going to keep your channel for future listening. As a side note, get his "Live from the Royal Albert Hall" album. Your mind will be blown.

Alvin Lee's guitar. You should check out "the bluest blues" from him. RIP Mr. Lee

Keyboard player Reese Wynans played with Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble

Joe just has to be the most perfect blues player ever it does help that he’s got the most amazing players around him awesome ❤❤😂❤

If you really want to see Joe slay it, you should watch Blues Deluxe live at Rockpalast. He was just approaching the height of his powers and he basically pouted gasoline on the stage and set it on fire.

Try "Taken The Hit" from Live At Rockpallast to see how good Joe is on guitar. He's an American treasure.

He reminds me of Eric Clapton and SRV in voice timbre and as a guitarist/singer.

The keyboard player was with the late Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Reese Wyans pianist extraordinaire! Played with Stevie Ray Vaughan!

Keyboard player is Reese Wynans!

the mans insane🎸🎸🎸💥💥
