Album DescriptionTwo CD set. Live from Nowhere in Particular is the 2008 album from Joe Bonamassa, an US blues guitarist/singer. Guitar One Magazine has stated that 'he just might be the best guitarist of his generation.' His blues-rock style is similar to that of Stevie Ray Vaughan's. In an interview in 'Guitarist' magazine (issue 265), Joe Bonamassa cited the three albums that had the biggest influence on his playing: John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton (the 'Beano Album'), Rory Gallagher's 'Irish Tour' and 'Goodbye' by Cream.

Rating: - Nowhere on Earth
Nowhere on Earth are you going to find a better live album produced this Centry. Joe has been tearing up stages for nearly 20 years. This set is indicative of where he is at at this particular time in his career. Even though this recording what pieced together from a few different shows recorded in late 2007 it plays seemlessly.
Having seen Joe numerous times I at first thought the crowd seemed a little distant. Joe's crowds can get pretty vocal at times. With the crowd noise kept to ... Read More
Rating: - Joe Bonamassa rocks!
This has to be one of the best CD releases I have heard in years.
I thought it was just me, but all my friends agreed that Joe Bonamassa is one incredible guitar player and a darn good vocalist.
Buy these CD's (two CD set), grab your favorite beverage, and allow yourself the full 1-1/2 hours to listen all the way through.
I am an experienced guitarist, and I can hear the influences of SRV, Jimmy Page, Eric Johnson, and many other players that I love and admire.

Rating: - Next best thing to being there.
This CD is a great representation of what Joe is playing live right now. I highly recommend this CD and encourage anyone who hasn't seen Joe play to do whatever it takes to get to one of his shows. Most great guitar players seem to inspire you to brush the dust off the old Strat and tear into it, but after seeing a Joe Bonamassa show you want to go home and burn it. Buy this CD.
(I didn't really burn my guitar.)

Rating: - Keeper of the British blues god flame (even if he isn't British)
My favorite CD of 2009 so far. Don't let the negative reviews scare you away if you like good guitar playing (and you don't need to put labels on it to enjoy it). Sure, from a purist standpoint, there's stuff on these disks that is loud raunchy, Marshall-driven rock. But, for me, that actually makes it sweeter. And you can say the same for most disks by Clapton or Hendrix...maybe even Buddy Guy. If grew up loving Cream, Free, early Jethro Tull, and Jeff Beck, Joe is the guy for you. He brings it all forward ... Read More
