I had never heard of him before, my Dad showed me a few clips of him & so decided to take my Dad to see this concert, when this was played we both just had goosebumps & tears of musical joys in our eyes, a moment i will treasure with my Dad forever...Music is Life.
I am in awe, naturally gifted, he has played with the best. He has a heart of gold. He helps out other artists. He has played with Eric Clapton, BB KING when he was growing up. He is friends with Beth Hart. He writes, sings, plays, his music. He is most awesome.
Joe Bonamassa is one of the greatest under celebrated guitar players of all times. I can’t believe he’s not a household name because, he’s simply the best blues player on the planet today. This man refused the easy route by refusing to drop the blues for mainstream pop. What makes him great is, he doesn’t have to answer to label or investors because he owns his label therefore allowing him to play what he loves, the blues.
I have been a lead guitar player since the mid 60's and have always played with emotion and melody and not if I could play as fast or as loud as the next guy. I only learned about Joe in the past 6 months and this man inspires me greatly. This intro and solo brings me to tears. The feeling he shows and I hear is simply beautiful. I haven't loved a blues guitarist/singer like this since Johnny Winter. Watching his videos on here has taught me some amazing style and technique. I thank the friend who told me about Joe and I thank God for giving us Mr. Joe Bonamassa.
I feel the same way, was introduced to his music 3 yrs ago,, I accidentally found out he was playing an hr from me, I tried to get someone to go but ended up going by myself. I will never forget it. Bucket list..
@ Tim Herman you have not heard anything yet if you have not heard the Live from Rockplast version. You will know it AS SOON AS YOU FIND IT it’s the one
@@gmaw23beauties37 I have heard that one also but my second favorite version is from the North Sea Jazz fest when he was a chubby kid like at Rockpalast. All are excellent.
I don't know how I've lived for 57 years and am now just hearing about Joe Bonamassa.i have truly missed out but am so thankful that now I know about him
I saw Joe Last year at Hardrock Hollywood Florida.......Best show of my life. Incredible blues guitar!!! My cousin was awestruck and had never heard of him. So was I.
100%. Just seen him live for the first time last night and can’t say I ever seen a guitarist live that plays with more emotion and intensity than this man. I had goosebumps the whole night
Absolutely love 💞 this song. Joe was the only Artist my husband listened to, the last few months of his life. We were going to go to one Joe's concerts just prior to my husband dying, and was in discussion via email how to make it possible. Alas, my husband was just to weak, and ill to make the trip. Thank you Joe for adding music to his last days. Appreciate you for it. Now I've got to get myself to see you, live and in person, and I'm doing what I can to get the best seat in the house, and bring my Steven's ashes with me. So in some small way we'll be there together.
Joe was saying it this peak for his career. He had Prince Albert Theater on his bucket list since he was a kid. Red Rock, Prince Albert Theater and one other he mentioned on the video. That was truly a moment in time The earth orbit the sun and moving through that space on that day, shared with the travels and life storys of a few thousand people all congregating to see THIS performance. The sound PERFECT. The vibe and the spirit moving in that hall. Was one of those moments that a musician may only grasp a handful of times in the whole of their career.
@vc50er - this ☝️ song 🎵 is not about your ex wife, nor is it about Massachusetts. Mountain time is the 3rd time zone we have in U.S, around Arizona, Nevada, Colorado areas. No where near Massachusetts
This is the last song my dad listened days before he died in our little mountain village... He died about a week ago and im listening to this now and still crying a bit.. am 19 and one day i just wish to be healthy and happy again
You will be happy again you just need to take some time and you'll be up on top again we all have to go sometime so don't let that get you down. You have your whole life ahead of you and your dad will want you to live it to its fullest
Joe has a unique way of luring you into his world with his guitar... at first, you think " hey this guy is good". And then you really "hear" him pour his heart into his music. That's when you "feel him play" and you know in your heart that this man is one of the best. A true bluesman
Joe is phenomenal. He IS a great blues player. But it's important to understand that this performance and many others is a melodic style performance. It focuses more on the the major scale melodies. Joe is a very broad scope player.
The immersion and artistic prowess in this song cannot be understated. The soundscapes it brings to mind are just like being out in a meadow in summer. Like a Studio Ghibli movie, minus the animation. It was a very natural and well-flowing melody throughout the song. The beginning and end lead guitar & bass work were the best!!
My God....I am no spring chicken and have heard a lot of great music in my day, but this has to be one of the most incredible songs to ever hit my ears. This guy is a monster of a musician.

@@xtubalnet ☆ I Thank you for sharing your discovery, within the 'RUclips Community'. For your experience is among an amazing group, of a large amount of individuals. Which says you have been Blessed to know this, it should comfort you. For 'JB's first time performing at the, 'Royal Alberta Hall', Located in London England. In parting ways I say to you Bernard. Do Take Care and Be Well My Friend:🇬🇧🇺🇸 ®️.
This is by far the best of all versions of Mountain Time he has performed, I watched so many of him playing at different theaters but he doesn’t touch this one, He put every ounce of blood and heart and soul in this performance!! He needs that Mahogany Guitar 😊❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
I felt that same way when I watched Joe’s performance of “Sloe Gin” from this same concert. I had depression, so it took a long passage of time and countless times of listening to “Sloe Gin”before the depression totally lifted. But each time I listened, a few more bricks would fall from my shoulders. That performance was my security blanket, my “comfort song”, which helped lead me out of a world of despair.
An intelligent woman who won't compromise on the finer things in life!! A wise choice you won't ever regret, music is intensely personal. When shared it's phenomenal!! Land that JB-appreciating man!
Well if I wasn’t married ( 54 years ) and a little younger than 75 I would leave you number. But don’t feel bad for me I have lived through the best music ever made. From Elvis to this guy the guitar master.
What an incredible performance. I have been listening to blues guitarists for sixty years and Joe is one of the best, and yet so little known. Just fabulous!
Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting❤️ Please send me a mail via joebonamassarecords@gmail.com
I just discovered Joe a few weeks ago and so glad I did, can’t stop listening to his music particularly this song. I bought a used SUV a few weeks back and the previous owner forgot one of Joes CDs in the CD player. Can’t understand how I’ve never heard his music. So talented and gifted!
Blair Sveinson has to work with the new year to day week week so much more work for you guys too but we will get together with our family for dinner tomorrow evening for the next two hours so I'll probably get a couple minutes to do it and get some sleep tonight I have some fun stuff I can come up for a little later if you're going I will let me get back in and talk about the rest my mind to you guys so much for
We drove through an epic rain and hail storm to get to Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO last night. Then a 2 hour lightning and rain delay. Joe gave a special thanks to all of us who hung in there, and then proceeded to make the evening a memorable one with his new album, Time Clocks. But what made it special for me was that he wrapped up the evening with this song. Always brings tears to my eyes, but WTF! We were all soaked down to our underware anyway. You rock, Joe! Thanks for the memory!
Thanks......I've spent many years in music and Mr Banamassa IS TRUELY an amazing talent...everything he does is beautiful and from the heart and soul........this is real music......
Hey man. You picked up from where the other guitar masters have left off. Combined with these lyrics which evoke pictures of paradise on earth ..... More words are superfluous...M.A.S.T.E.R.P.I.E.C.E.
I just love, that in my lifetime, I have witnessed the very best. Hendrix, Clapton, Vai, SRV..Albert Lee..Stills. BB. Healy....Duane. And this man, makes my heart so so happy...and want to turn it up. As he channels the spirit that IS music...no thanks are big enough to say what we feel. This song. Beautiful. Grateful to the universe for his dedication to talent, and his ability to make guitars sound like angels. What a fine gift.
I'm so glad you mentioned Healy his passing was an incomparable loss. Gary Moore as well. I too am thankfully for living the last 68 years and being swept away by these giant talents.
@@marcador79 Saying Joe's a very good player is like saying Mt. Everest is kind of big. Nobody can touch him, before or probably after he's gone. People like Joe are a once in 2 lifetimes kind of talent. Take a massive brain, a little autism, and a passion for not only his, but others music, and you have someone incredibly special. And he's a nice guy on top of it all.
If you’ve never seen Joe live, I highly suggest to go see him. This man is truly a professional and an absolute pleasure to watch live. I only wish I could play as good as him. I have followed Joe for many years . and the level of his skills and talents never cease to amaze me… I love it when him and Beth Hart get together and perform. Give them hell, Joe👍😜
This is the one that did if for me. I heard it on the radio and had to have it all. I've watched the DVD countless times and it never ceases to amaze me. You are a true gift to the world Mr. Bonamassa!
There’s no more that can be said about Joe’s gift… As of now probably the hardest working bluesmen on earth. All the accolades are truly deserved. When Joe gets on stage with other guitarists and different bands he’s able to display his talents and generosity which usually leads to mind blowing performances. I’m a proud listener and lover of the blues since a young boy when I was introduced to music and talents like BB King, Jimi, Buddy Guy, Albert Collins and Eric Clapton to start and when I was introduced to Led Zeppelin and their first album and heard a superbly produced blues album with songs like I Can’t Quit You Babe and You Shook Me I was off to the stereo. Growing older it was important to have the proper equipment to enjoy and explore my love of music, playing music on my first generation Yamaha / Mitsubishi stereo I was always interested in and exploring the blues rock of the time. I saw a clip on the evening news living in Connecticut and it was a 9 year old Joey Bones winner of a blues guitar competition in NJ… I was blown away. Stevie Rays career was starting out and I was lucky enough to see him in New Haven a bit later on opening for Robert Plant on his first solo tour after Bonham’s death and the bar was set on that night for me. Meanwhile Joes career was off and he was playing a number of shows in the Tri-State area and I made it to see him at a bar / concert hall in New Haven called Toads Place and that night I was treated to the same mind blowing experience as when I saw Stevie Ray… I followed Joe from that point and turned on friends to his talents and always felt like I discovered him and introduced Joe’s music into my circle. I’ve met Joe twice before shows in Worcester, MA at the Palladium and a concert in Hartford… got pictures, autographs and a shout out “to my new friend Brett” he asked for a wave.. I feel like all the guys I grew up listening to were already legends and now here comes “my guy”… Joe has exceeded all expectations in the industry to become a top 10 all-timer in my book. That’s saying a lot… because the other 9 guys on my list are the same guys that introduced and influenced Joe to become what he is today. Joe’s coming to Massachusetts later this year and I’m hoping to be well enough to go see him and introduce him to the younger generation in my family in an effort to spread the word that Joe is definitely one of the world’s greatest players and amazingly enough he just keeps getting better…❤
Brett, that was a wonderful comment. Enjoyed your reminiscences! I definitely remember when I first heard Joe and his band. It wasn’t nearly as exciting as your story, because it was simply here on RUclips a few years back, "Bird on a Wire" at the Beacon Theatre. But it made a huge difference in my life. I absolutely loved it. And I still do. I’ve seen Joe, with Reese and the others, live in concert once. I’m not schooled in blues or rock or even pop music, but I just pick out what I like….and I like Joe!❤
You're a very blessed man with a true appreciation for wonderful talent, thank you for your comment and appreciation for genuine talent. It's getting harder to find nowadays. Peace to you.
Aug 2023. Im 68 now just an ol hippie. My favorite rock band LED ZEPPELIN. Got to see BB King 7 or 9 times but i REMEBER Joe as the young boy he brought on stage. Later years in conversation with a few of his bandmembers at a party they told me all about Joe what he was doin now how he would be big. I finally got to see him live but didnt know it was him until my friend said hey its Joe! My lord the talent. I didnt get to stay for full concert my friend had an emergency so we had to leave but man what those 3 songs we heard mindblowing. They dont make em like that. I also got to see Stevie Ray Vaugn in Austins dive bar called the Roma Room. Literally ONE dangling lightbulb on a black cord hung over the ahem-dance floor. Many talented artists came out of that little hole lol. Stevie came to the afterparty and played there too-winter by the fireplace. That man didnt stop for three hours! After 2 gigs that nite. He never once took a break. Our host was pissed when back room turned on current dance music blasted it which ended Stevie playing. Host kicked errbody out cept us core group who had stayed not moving for the 3 hours-then all of us ran to the bathrooms lol. Never forget that never. 🙏🏻❤️🧐
Mark, I was at the same show myself. It was amazing to see this man live. Only disappointment was the fact of just one encore - but as you said, this was a thing of beauty...
I've only played this about 5,000 times, One of the greatest performers ever, He is the greatest guitarist ever, And I have a list of 20 My ex wife in the icon symbol, She can't stand him,, Let me repeat, ex wife, lol,
Eine Bekannte von mir, Musikerin,hat einen Sohn welcher Gitarre studiert hat.Durch sie habe ich erst 2009 Bonamassa kennen gelernt.n.Vielen Dank für's hochladen!
@Dan Kolcun ☆ You said it first Brother, and you couldn't be so on mark. I hope to hear more comments and replies from you, within the near future. Till then Mate keep climbing the ladder of life. Peace and Blessing to you always. Take Care and Be Well Always My Friend: 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ®️.
I've been a huge Joe fan for twenty years, I've yet to hear a song I don't like. Listen to anything Joe and Beth Hart, the two of them make beautiful music together.
2 years since i downloaded this masterpiece onto my phone and it has not left top number 1 spot on my "most played" playlist. I will lie there, headphones on, turn it on full blast and just listen on repeat. It is a masterpiece, a truly incredible performance. Thank you Joe
As a guitar player myself, I can tell that Joe is a great communicator. He is as good as communicating with his mouth as with his guitar. The notes and melodies he plays are beautiful proses and verses of poetry and sounds mixed all together. I am not anywhere near him, but I know what a well distorted, softly played note means and aims to deliver. Well done Joe!
My wife and I had the gift to see him live Burlington before the world came to a stop. The best live show we've ever seen.I shur hope we get to see him again and again.
i watch this performance nightly as it reminds me of my dear brother Chris who i feel i will jnever see again in this lifetime due to the fact i have become addicted to heroin and am too ashamed to face him. He introduced me to Joe and whenever i am missing my brother i watch performances of joe to keep him in my heart. If you are reading this Chris, I'm deeply sorry. Alan xxxxx
Dear Alan, I read your words several times this evening, as they are so deeply moving. I hope your brother Chris sees your message and realizes how much you love him. Having had two brothers myself (I am the sister), I saw firsthand the deep bond that develops between two loving brothers. Your spirit is created in the image of our loving Creator, in the image of God. He loves you and will help to protect you. Ask for help from those who love you and/or from those who care…maybe a doctor, a clinic, or whatever services your area provides. Please don’t feel ashamed, as we are all a reflection of the loving Spirit of God. Love will help to hold you up when you have lost your way. Reach out and touch it. You have my best wishes for a full recovery and future reconciliation with your brother. You may have to prove yourself at first, but good things come to those who persevere. And with the loving touch of our Creator, all things are possible. Be patient with your helpers, with your brother, and most of all with yourself. ❤ You are worth it. Please write again to tell us how you are doing. In the meantime listen to Joe’s music every chance you get. It will help to lift your spirits . ❤
My favorite by Joe....cried when I watched him sing it...........My husband drives longhaul trucking. When he comes home, we run to each other. THIS is how we feel about each other, after 38 years. Thank you Joe. You understand how we feel.....can't wait to see you in concert again!!!
The first time I saw him live was at his birthday party in a small club in Oklahoma city the night before he played a concert in civic center which was fantastic. As to the birthday party. A TORNADO hit about 1/2 thru his 1st set there was no power. Joe visited a little bit but the power did not come.back on. Joe said if we would be real quiet he would be right back and play some more. He went to his bus and came back with an acoustical guitar an played for.about 2 hours. The best show I have have ever seen and I am now 71 and that is still the best ever
I had never heard of him before, my Dad showed me a few clips of him & so decided to take my Dad to see this concert, when this was played we both just had goosebumps & tears of musical joys in our eyes, a moment i will treasure with my Dad forever...Music is Life.
I get chills listening to any solo of his, but he's not the only great guitarist out there!! One just passed away, Eddie Van Halen.. R.i.p..
Yes that's my home
I am in awe, naturally gifted, he has played with the best. He has a heart of gold. He helps out other artists. He has played with Eric Clapton, BB KING when he was growing up. He is friends with Beth Hart. He writes, sings, plays, his music. He is most awesome.
@@sylviamichaelsen1659 his work with Beth is my Dad's favourite
@@jasonhardingham6863 love the songs. Beth has a very unique sound.
There are moments when an artist suspends time and place and completely grasps the attention of their audience. Joe created history in this clip.
He did just that! 1:15

Let’s not make a hasty decision. Eric Clapton is considered the best. Perhaps you should explore his music.

I'm not sure I'd go that far, but he's definitely one of the best.
Blues guitar, not all guitar. He's nowhere near Vicente amigo or Antonio Rey
THIS was a Master guitarist holding the Royal Albert Hall audience in the palm of his hand for this 10 minute master class
The rockplas show he did in Germany hear his solo to that version he is phenomenal look it up on u tube 👍
I agree 👍
Well said.
I don’t know how many times I have heard this MASTERPIECE, but it still gives me goosebumps!
Such perfection!
No Kidding Around,, MASTERPIECE,, IM OUT NOW AND LISTENING
Agreed
This and Sloe Gin pulled me in the first time I saw him... all his work is terrific, but those two have guitar riffs that really produce goosebumps.
I've seen him 4 times now and was supposed to see him the 9th of November but I'm having some medical problems... Damn
Me too Mike,me too... Shivers up the back...
8.5 million views, and I'm about 2.5 of them!!! I CANNOT get enough of this song!!!

Same
Me either!❤
AMEN!!!!!!!
Love it !
One of the most beautiful songs l have heard in my 76 years.If the 2nd solo does not move you,then you are dead! Joe you are entrancing!
Owning what hall.
Hi,cannot understand what"Owning what hall" means,please explain,l am not from the states.@@rysmith9433

Owning that Hall simply means he "dominated"... That night. ... And he did.

The bass player on this is brilliant. He accompanies Jo Bo perfectly.
Carlos!
I am 78 years old and been a bartender heard some amazing bands but nothing like Joe for a young artist he is FANTASTIC
yes he is !!!
He's the best!
We've seen him 7 times!
75 can't get enough of phenomenal music
From a 67 ole rocker Joe can play sounds good & clean since 1st time listen 15 or so years back.
I saw Joe Last year at Hardrock Hollywood Florida.......Best show of my life. Incredible blues guitar!!! My cousin was awestruck and had never heard of him. So was I.
This isn't just a song, it's a symphony.
It's not a symphony, it's just fantastic.
Sam Hamilton I saw him do an acoustic version of this that was pretty decent
True dat
Normal words have no bearing.
Absolutely F-ing brilliant.
Only a gifted Musician can “say” so much without any words for the first 3 minutes🎼🎸.The power of music =the power of 🫶✌️🤘👏Joe Bonamassa!
This intro - brilliant.
Yes you write.
Music speaks what words cannot express.
Just the strings.❤❤❤
This man's music is totally on another level...
yes!!
100%. Just seen him live for the first time last night and can’t say I ever seen a guitarist live that plays with more emotion and intensity than this man. I had goosebumps the whole night
👍💙
He is a legendary musician and guitarist and singer everyone needs to hear this man
Obviously Joe is a guitar phenom, but I REALLY like his voice on this song.
Absolutely love 💞 this song.

GOD BLESS! RIP!
God Speed…..
I’m crying ❤️
May Eternal rest be granted him and may Perpetual light shine upon him...
No sunglasses. A rare performance.
Bonamassa's Masterpiece. If he never did anything but this one performance he would be included amongst the greats.
Joe was saying it this peak for his career. He had Prince Albert Theater on his bucket list since he was a kid. Red Rock, Prince Albert Theater and one other he mentioned on the video.
That was truly a moment in time The earth orbit the sun and moving through that space on that day, shared with the travels and life storys of a few thousand people all congregating to see THIS performance. The sound PERFECT. The vibe and the spirit moving in that hall. Was one of those moments that a musician may only grasp a handful of times in the whole of their career.
This song has to be about my ex--wife. It is about the Mountains of Massachusetts. She passed a while ago.
Love the Berkshire Mountains and the ride up Rt.2

This is the last song my dad listened days before he died in our little mountain village... He died about a week ago and im listening to this now and still crying a bit.. am 19 and one day i just wish to be healthy and happy again
A beautiful connection for you🌹
Hope you're doing well!
So sorry for the loss of your Dear Father God Bless you and may your health be healed!
You will be happy again you just need to take some time and you'll be up on top again we all have to go sometime so don't let that get you down. You have your whole life ahead of you and your dad will want you to live it to its fullest
A navy man once said, "slow is smooth, and smooth is fast..." great minds think alike. Very smooth JB
this guy is from some other planet. He is highly under rated.

@@stricknine8623 I agree completely. But seeing him live is next level
@@danceteacher313
My comment was specifically in response to the OPs last line.
"A true bluesman"
@@stricknine8623 Such a great point. I like that about him...the pursuit of styles and compositions beyond the blues, which he honors very well.
damn... that's well put. right on.
if there is a God in heaven he is listening to every note that comes from Joe's guitar thank you Joe for what you are giving the world with your music
Of course God is in Heaven.
And He can live within us if we humble ourselves and ask Him to show Himself to us- He did to me
This is divine and meditative. Love your music Joe B! ❤️
The immersion and artistic prowess in this song cannot be understated. The soundscapes it brings to mind are just like being out in a meadow in summer. Like a Studio Ghibli movie, minus the animation. It was a very natural and well-flowing melody throughout the song. The beginning and end lead guitar & bass work were the best!!
I accidently landed on this....wOW....JUST WOW! Flawless....
When nothing seems to be going right for me, I dial him up.
Check out his song Dust Bowl
He is God ....
This is the only person I like live versions better than studio tracks
Patrick Droney is another
Joe Bonamassa is one of if not the best guitarist in the world !!
What an intro. Cosmic.
My God....I am no spring chicken and have heard a lot of great music in my day, but this has to be one of the most incredible songs to ever hit my ears. This guy is a monster of a musician.

Do Take Care and Be Well My Friend:🇬🇧🇺🇸 ®️.
This is by far the best of all versions of Mountain Time he has performed, I watched so many of him playing at different theaters but he doesn’t touch this one, He put every ounce of blood and heart and soul in this performance!! He needs that Mahogany Guitar 😊❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
This is my favorite version as well.
I agree
To read this makes me feel REAALLL good that my RUclips algorithm suggested THIS post for my first time hearing this from J. Bonammassa. Good shit!!
That’s LAYIN IT DOWN!!!!
Both Vocally and Guitar-wise.
Love/Peace XO 2023
Il fait partie des plus grands, cette musique vous fait voyager, quel solo
My dear God 🕊⚘️ I pray that I can listen to this in heaven 🙏
I'm right there with you brother!
If you see Jesus you will be like. JOE who?!
This is heavenly, right here listening to Joe
Through the ups and downs of life, every time I hear this song and the tears fall down, I know that everything's gonna be all right. Thank you Joe ❤
This song brings the welling of tears to my eyes as well, one day they'll flow..
You’re not wrong…
I think this would will be with music.
Yes , I agree ! Joe helps me a lot through his music .
Nice to see Michael Rhodes fit and healthy back then, RIP Sir!
Carmine Rojas! I had to Google it.
The initial guitar solo is something mystical and spiritual as only those who go to the mountains can understand
I can imagine that
Nepal and himalaya came to my mind when listening to this. Been there
Even if you at the beach you can have that same perspective 3:53
This is one of the best displays of guitar craftsmanship there is, from start to finish.
100% agree

Almost brings me to tears everytime I hear it.

Love you man
You got that right!! ✅
@Jeff McLaughlin • Very nice and well said Mate. Jeff may his almighty hand shadow you always. Take Care.
I've never had peace in my life after hearing this song the first time it was like all the weight was lifted off of me something I've never felt
I felt that same way when I watched Joe’s performance of “Sloe Gin” from this same concert. I had depression, so it took a long passage of time and countless times of listening to “Sloe Gin”before the depression totally lifted. But each time I listened, a few more bricks would fall from my shoulders. That performance was my security blanket, my “comfort song”, which helped lead me out of a world of despair.
It's Never to Late to Find this Great Artist. Best Ever Appreciate the Music
I am!
Best guitarist on the planet, IMO!
I’ve decided to stop wasting my time dating men that do not love and appreciate JB as much as I do. Music compatibility is non-negotiable. 😎🤘🏼
I’ve been coaching my husband of 52 years on the finer points of Joe’s music!
He’s coming right along…guess he’s a keeper…LOL…!!! ❤️.¸¸.☆
An intelligent woman who won't compromise on the finer things in life!! A wise choice you won't ever regret, music is intensely personal. When shared it's phenomenal!! Land that JB-appreciating man!
marry me!
Well if I wasn’t married ( 54 years ) and a little younger than 75 I would leave you number. But don’t feel bad for me I have lived through the best music ever made. From Elvis to this guy the guitar master.
ASL? (haha jokes)
Wow..blown away..don't like his music and play much in common...but that is .....speachless
This performance is the best i have ever seen it moved me to tears and im in my 70s....Wonderful.
Me too!
Me too. T. Corn
73 and with you!
72 and it always moves me to tears ...
Every time I hear it!😂
What an incredible performance. I have been listening to blues guitarists for sixty years and Joe is one of the best, and yet so little known. Just fabulous!
THE BEST!!!
You can find a lot of interviews... Look for a 3 part from the munitions hall of fame with joe chambers.
Am from kenya and I have his albums for the last 10 years.
Lets not forget the wonderful bass playing by Carmine Rojas, stunning!!
Yea! Those descending arpeggios are fabulous!
@@timherman3995 Only a bass player would notice that. Carmine is one of my favorites.
@@timherman3995 He aquired that style by listening to and practising Eric Johnson runs.
You are so correct. These musicians couldn't do it without the backup musicians. I love his backup singers too!
he works it well
Joe du bist die Spitze vom icberg 🎸🤗🎊
To All of those who are discovering Joe......Welcome Aboard.
Thank you,this is somehow the first time ive ever heard or seen him..heard of him on guitar sites,wow this is incredible!!
Thank you!
Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting❤️

I just discovered Joe a few weeks ago and so glad I did, can’t stop listening to his music particularly this song. I bought a used SUV a few weeks back and the previous owner forgot one of Joes CDs in the CD player. Can’t understand how I’ve never heard his music. So talented and gifted!
This is one of the most glorious pieces of music I have ever heard. Joe B has me hooked.
"Glorious" nicely characterizes this piece.

Blair Sveinson has to work with the new year to day week week so much more work for you guys too but we will get together with our family for dinner tomorrow evening for the next two hours so I'll probably get a couple minutes to do it and get some sleep tonight I have some fun stuff I can come up for a little later if you're going I will let me get back in and talk about the rest my mind to you guys so much for
Absolutely amazing ❤️
Not only you. All of us. He was great and incredible in this moment.
We drove through an epic rain and hail storm to get to Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO last night. Then a 2 hour lightning and rain delay. Joe gave a special thanks to all of us who hung in there, and then proceeded to make the evening a memorable one with his new album, Time Clocks. But what made it special for me was that he wrapped up the evening with this song. Always brings tears to my eyes, but WTF! We were all soaked down to our underware anyway. You rock, Joe! Thanks for the memory!
Just a Masterclass Joe love it❤❤
This is beautiful, can't explain why it makes me cry.
cause it’s just THAT good.
It's because your heart feels the music
C'est toute la différence avec la musique de nos jours qui ne laissent que rarement des émotions. Je pense tout spécialement au rap.
Thanks......I've spent many years in music and Mr Banamassa IS TRUELY an amazing talent...everything he does is beautiful and from the heart and soul........this is real music......
Congratulations on this capability! I feel the same! Few people can do that, it's a privilege!
One of the best live performances by anyone ever
Joseph Travers you gotta be fuckin kidding hAhahs
@@chrisg9348 I'd say it's quite excellent. Best performance ever? Certainly not, but if the OP enjoys it, why do you feel the need to be nasty?
If you to play bass guitar to the tenth degree. Study this guy. He put it all out in this cut. Trust... he's a bad man, I tell ya.
5:54
Studying and admiring (for lack of the word I'm want) are equally accepted if you are a fan as well as a artist.
@@S.Beck1322 Very true my friend. Be blessed.
Hey man. You picked up from where the other guitar masters have left off. Combined with these lyrics which evoke pictures of paradise on earth ..... More words are superfluous...M.A.S.T.E.R.P.I.E.C.E.
Joe Bonamassa has becoming legendary. I love you Joe.
I just love, that in my lifetime, I have witnessed the very best. Hendrix, Clapton, Vai, SRV..Albert Lee..Stills. BB. Healy....Duane. And this man, makes my heart so so happy...and want to turn it up. As he channels the spirit that IS music...no thanks are big enough to say what we feel. This song. Beautiful. Grateful to the universe for his dedication to talent, and his ability to make guitars sound like angels. What a fine gift.
Don't forget Derek Trucks!
Patti you may have missed more then a few but I get the spirit of what you are saying I so much appreciate what Joe brings to music
Couldn't agree more - this is a special song, played by a special talent. Such an emotive and moving piece of music
I'm so glad you mentioned Healy his passing was an incomparable loss. Gary Moore as well. I too am thankfully for living the last 68 years and being swept away by these giant talents.
Seen Joe B , at O2 , his Guitar was Best , I’ve EVER HEARD , Except, perhaps Shaun Malis
This guy is on a different level than anybody else.
He's a very good player, but there are others...have you checked out Jack Pearson? Derek Trucks?
@@marcador79 Saying Joe's a very good player is like saying Mt. Everest is kind of big. Nobody can touch him, before or probably after he's gone. People like Joe are a once in 2 lifetimes kind of talent. Take a massive brain, a little autism, and a passion for not only his, but others music, and you have someone incredibly special. And he's a nice guy on top of it all.
Yes!
@@marcador79 OR Carlos Santana! The master🙏
@@marcador79 Derek has that finger pick'in slide, a GREAT PLAYER. Pearson is good but no Bona.
Seen him twice and this song is just amazing
@Carol hello, how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
If you’ve never seen Joe live, I highly suggest to go see him. This man is truly a professional and an absolute pleasure to watch live. I only wish I could play as good as him. I have followed Joe for many years . and the level of his skills and talents never cease to amaze me… I love it when him and Beth Hart get together and perform. Give them hell, Joe👍😜
Cool
Indeed this man is amazing. Seeing this gentleman play live is an outer body experience. I’ve been blessed twice. Hope one or more times again. Pg
I’m 15 and have seen him twice, I saw him last night in Boston
Could not agree more Mark, unfortunately the band is incomplete now without Anton Fig....'tis a shame.
@@mattgurin6168 I guess at 70 years old, he deserves a break Great Drummer, great portfolio👍
This Guy doesn’t play the guitar he makes it sing. By far the best Out there.
AGREE

He plays his guitar like it's a gift "from the gods"
Hi there
How are you doing
@@gibsonbrown7381 Hello
@@gibsonbrown7381 I am good and you?
I am fine thanks
Just saw him in Reno, Nevada. He played this song even better with Reese, and Josh at his side. Unreal!
I am at a loss for words to describe how this mans playing makes me feel
This is the one that did if for me. I heard it on the radio and had to have it all. I've watched the DVD countless times and it never ceases to amaze me. You are a true gift to the world Mr. Bonamassa!
John DeJarnatt Isn’t that an amazing feeling, when you hear a song out of nowhere that brings you to your knees?!
That's my purse and my art.
Not some douce bag sunny or Jay or Sean it's T4illions
I saved it on tv...
John DeJarnatt ttttttkk
This bass player is glorious; majestic and powerful
....Carmine Rojas, wonderful bassist!
All you said plus my friend. Wow....
There’s no more that can be said about Joe’s gift… As of now probably the hardest working bluesmen on earth. All the accolades are truly deserved. When Joe gets on stage with other guitarists and different bands he’s able to display his talents and generosity which usually leads to mind blowing performances. I’m a proud listener and lover of the blues since a young boy when I was introduced to music and talents like BB King, Jimi, Buddy Guy, Albert Collins and Eric Clapton to start and when I was introduced to Led Zeppelin and their first album and heard a superbly produced blues album with songs like I Can’t Quit You Babe and You Shook Me I was off to the stereo. Growing older it was important to have the proper equipment to enjoy and explore my love of music, playing music on my first generation Yamaha / Mitsubishi stereo I was always interested in and exploring the blues rock of the time. I saw a clip on the evening news living in Connecticut and it was a 9 year old Joey Bones winner of a blues guitar competition in NJ… I was blown away. Stevie Rays career was starting out and I was lucky enough to see him in New Haven a bit later on opening for Robert Plant on his first solo tour after Bonham’s death and the bar was set on that night for me. Meanwhile Joes career was off and he was playing a number of shows in the Tri-State area and I made it to see him at a bar / concert hall in New Haven called Toads Place and that night I was treated to the same mind blowing experience as when I saw Stevie Ray… I followed Joe from that point and turned on friends to his talents and always felt like I discovered him and introduced Joe’s music into my circle. I’ve met Joe twice before shows in Worcester, MA at the Palladium and a concert in Hartford… got pictures, autographs and a shout out “to my new friend Brett” he asked for a wave.. I feel like all the guys I grew up listening to were already legends and now here comes “my guy”… Joe has exceeded all expectations in the industry to become a top 10 all-timer in my book. That’s saying a lot… because the other 9 guys on my list are the same guys that introduced and influenced Joe to become what he is today. Joe’s coming to Massachusetts later this year and I’m hoping to be well enough to go see him and introduce him to the younger generation in my family in an effort to spread the word that Joe is definitely one of the world’s greatest players and amazingly enough he just keeps getting better…❤
Brett, that was a wonderful comment. Enjoyed your reminiscences! I definitely remember when I first heard Joe and his band. It wasn’t nearly as exciting as your story, because it was simply here on RUclips a few years back, "Bird on a Wire" at the Beacon Theatre. But it made a huge difference in my life. I absolutely loved it. And I still do. I’ve seen Joe, with Reese and the others, live in concert once. I’m not schooled in blues or rock or even pop music, but I just pick out what I like….and I like Joe!❤
Klasse geschrieben und ich mag ihn ebenso gern hören.👍❣😊
You're a very blessed man with a true appreciation for wonderful talent, thank you for your comment and appreciation for genuine talent. It's getting harder to find nowadays. Peace to you.
Aug 2023. Im 68 now just an ol hippie. My favorite rock band LED ZEPPELIN. Got to see BB King 7 or 9 times but i REMEBER Joe as the young boy he brought on stage. Later years in conversation with a few of his bandmembers at a party they told me all about Joe what he was doin now how he would be big. I finally got to see him live but didnt know it was him until my friend said hey its Joe! My lord the talent. I didnt get to stay for full concert my friend had an emergency so we had to leave but man what those 3 songs we heard mindblowing. They dont make em like that. I also got to see Stevie Ray Vaugn in Austins dive bar called the Roma Room. Literally ONE dangling lightbulb on a black cord hung over the ahem-dance floor. Many talented artists came out of that little hole lol. Stevie came to the afterparty and played there too-winter by the fireplace. That man didnt stop for three hours! After 2 gigs that nite. He never once took a break. Our host was pissed when back room turned on current dance music blasted it which ended Stevie playing. Host kicked errbody out cept us core group who had stayed not moving for the 3 hours-then all of us ran to the bathrooms lol. Never forget that never. 🙏🏻❤️🧐
@@lindabuck2777.
We saw Joe live last night (11-15-22), and this song was his encore, and yes, it was magnificent!! As was the entire show.
Mark, I was at the same show myself. It was amazing to see this man live. Only disappointment was the fact of just one encore - but as you said, this was a thing of beauty...
Just saw him in St.Augustine last Saturday and likewise this was his encore for over 15 minutes. Incredible show
Ditto, Red Rocks 8-6-23. Incredible.
The first 2 and a half minutes are the best part of my life ❤❤❤❤❤
Mb you should get out more!
THE BEST preformance of this track!!
Absolutely unique. Very special for me. Gave me widerr perspective of things when my Dad was dying. Masterpiece.
This song gives me chills...every.damn.time.
I've only played this about 5,000 times,
One of the greatest performers ever,
He is the greatest guitarist ever,
And I have a list of 20

2 years since i downloaded this masterpiece onto my phone and it has not left top number 1 spot on my "most played" playlist. I will lie there, headphones on, turn it on full blast and just listen on repeat.
It is a masterpiece, a truly incredible performance. Thank you Joe
Joe brings both fire and tenderness, delivered with unparalleled skills. I could listen to him all day, and lately I have.
1500 thumbs down ...... I'll bet they're all unvaccinated.
I do😊
MeeeeeTooooio
Man that dude can play that ax. He's one the best.
As a guitar player myself, I can tell that Joe is a great communicator. He is as good as communicating with his mouth as with his guitar. The notes and melodies he plays are beautiful proses and verses of poetry and sounds mixed all together. I am not anywhere near him, but I know what a well distorted, softly played note means and aims to deliver. Well done Joe!
I LOVE THIS MAN!! He knows my soul and his music transports me to a very beautiful place. I will be listening until the day I die.
Now there's a good idea, I'll have it played at my funeral!!

i love this mans guitars
i watch this performance nightly as it reminds me of my dear brother Chris who i feel i will jnever see again in this lifetime due to the fact i have become addicted to heroin and am too ashamed to face him. He introduced me to Joe and whenever i am missing my brother i watch performances of joe to keep him in my heart. If you are reading this Chris, I'm deeply sorry. Alan xxxxx
Dear Alan,
I read your words several times this evening, as they are so deeply moving. I hope your brother Chris sees your message and realizes how much you love him. Having had two brothers myself (I am the sister), I saw firsthand the deep bond that develops between two loving brothers.
Your spirit is created in the image of our loving Creator, in the image of God. He loves you and will help to protect you. Ask for help from those who love you and/or from those who care…maybe a doctor, a clinic, or whatever services your area provides.
Please don’t feel ashamed, as we are all a reflection of the loving Spirit of God. Love will help to hold you up when you have lost your way. Reach out and touch it.
You have my best wishes for a full recovery and future reconciliation with your brother. You may have to prove yourself at first, but good things come to those who persevere. And with the loving touch of our Creator, all things are possible.
Be patient with your helpers, with your brother, and most of all with yourself. ❤ You are worth it.
Please write again to tell us how you are doing. In the meantime listen to Joe’s music every chance you get. It will help to lift your spirits . ❤
I’m sorry for your pain, brother. Keep driving through the mountains and may you and your brother find peace. 🙏
How are you doing? Please don’t be ashamed. Reach out to your brother. He’s waiting for you ❤
don´t know how often i´ve seen this now, must be 500+. Still getting goosebumps every time. Love it
My favorite by Joe....cried when I watched him sing it...........My husband drives longhaul trucking. When he comes home, we run to each other. THIS is how we feel about each other, after 38 years. Thank you Joe. You understand how we feel.....can't wait to see you in concert again!!!
God bless you and your relation with your husband, I envy him to have a wife like you!!
Was für ein überragender Künstler.
The first time I saw him live was at his birthday party in a small club in Oklahoma city the night before he played a concert in civic center which was fantastic. As to the birthday party. A TORNADO hit about
1/2 thru his 1st set there was no power. Joe visited a little bit but the power did not come.back on. Joe said if we would be real quiet he would be right back and play some more. He went to his bus and came back with an acoustical guitar an played for.about 2 hours. The best show I have have ever seen and I am now 71 and that is still the best ever
Truly PHENOM. he Gets it. And better yet SHARES IT.
Was a Gift from He to You
Solo at the end is up there with anything you'll hear. Genius.

@@jackyseagroves9171 ?
I love the melody and all the part only he could sing better
