Reaction - Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa - Lazy - A Cover Version Possibly Better Than The Original

This is a reaction video of Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa covering the great Deep Purple song "Lazy". This is a real HOT cover with incredible keyboards (who is this keyboard player). The drumming outpaces Ian Paice on the original (who is this drummer). And the guitar playing lights up the fret board by Joe and Brad Whitford (of Aerosmith fame). The bass playing moves along with the drumming. And the vocals by Jimmy ... WOW ... totally out of sight! Enjoy ...

The opening organ solo reminds me of the Garth Hudson organ solo that grew in concerts to become "The Genetic Method" leading into the start of "Chest Fever" by The Band.

omg, I have never heard this. Thankyou so much.

[@hajrudinalic4196]

Fantastic job! BRAVO !

[@kasperkjrsgaard1447]

If you like me love Jimmy Barnes vocals, go and check out “Living Loud” where he works with Deep Purples Steve Morse and Don Airey, Uriah Heeps Lee Kerslake and Bob Daisley.
It’s just bloody fine hard rock. 🤘

I was a huge purple fan back in the 70’s. Love Ian Gillans vocals. This is. Fine band. Who I feel def do this song justice, different of course but still good.

Thanks heaps for the reaction. If you like this cover check out a young Jimmy Barnes live in 1984 covering “ a change is gonna come”

[@PaulA-bv1rt]

This was recorded for a tribute album of Deep Purple songs.

[@TOM-hi7zh]

The drummer is Anton Fig, who is a drum god in the industry, and is better known as David Letterman's Drummer. The keyboardist is Arlen Schierbaum, both are from Joes band at that time.

I heard an interesting piece of info while watching two other dudes reacting to this cover of Deep Purples Lazy. The name Deep Purple apparently comes from the marijuana scene back in the day. When the police pulled someone over, then checked their stash, if the test liquid turned a deep purple color, it was some good weed, apparently 😂😅

Todd, there is a mountain of stuff out there just dying to impress you.

Loved your reaction, you might try this song next if like Joe, Joe Bonamassa & Beth Hart Official - "I'll Take Care of You" - Beacon Theatre Live From New York

[@MariaBM1]

"Too Much Ain't Enough Love" is the other song Jimmy and Joe do together.

[@m.b-ee8815]

Try the Steve Vai/ Glenn Hughes cover of highway star from the same tribute album.

[@donnabost4445]

Fun fact : THe organ was STEVIE RAY VAUGHN's....purchused by JOE.

[@garya7893]

I like this better than the original

[@darrencooke4207]

A good try, but not a patch on the original imo

[@gonzoii148]

Good cover, no doubt about it, but clearly nowhere near the original + I don't like Joe's tone here, much too agressive compared to Blackmore's subtle touch.

[@micheleteso9499]

only and forever IAN GILLAN's

[@micheleteso9499]

Only IAN GILLAN's Sorry for you

[@stevep2430]

When did it become a competition? I know Ian has respect for Jimmies singing abilities and feels honored for their tribute cover to a great band . It has nothing to about being better, far from it but respect to the great band Deep Purple. Nothing more, nothing less.
