Jack Jones Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 I was just describing to a friend about this 12 year old guitar whiz I saw open for BB King in the early nineties. I've seen him since then and was always blown away by his mastery of the guitar. Found this video on you tube of him playing Royal Albert Hall with Eric Clapton. I thought some people here might enjoy... I recommend volume setting 11 for this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEEfDdJyxPY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP gr8fulpair Posted March 10, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Appears cut from the same cloth as "God rest his soul" Stevie Ray - or at least influenced by. Love that style! Thanks for the turn on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the turn on. I think you hit the nail on the head , Joe Bonamassa most definitely has a Stevie Ray Style ... I like him and I wonder why we don't hear more about him ...

Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted March 10, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 We made the pilgrammage to Stevie Ray's statue down by the river in Austin after this last show. It is a very cool piece of art... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neutrino Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Very nice!!! I definitely hear the SRV influence that has been mentioned, but it seems there is a lot of B.B. King in there too. He has that same vibroto going at times that is so distinctive to BB's guitar tone. I guess he picked that up when he was 12. Wow--can you imagine playing with BB when you were in the 7th grade?

560sdl Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 The guy is truly awesome. I only discovered him about 6 months ago and can't get enough. One of the only guys that keeps me from listening to GD related music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
