Bloodline-"Bloodline" Smokin' Joe Bonamassa


I just received the CD Bloodline-"Bloodline". It was released back in 1994, but I had never heard of them.

I've really gotten into Joe Bonamassa, (thanks Theo) and this was his first band. He is actually billed as "Smokin' Joe Bonamassa" on this album and was only 17 or 18 years old. The other members of Bloodline are the sons of Miles Davis, Berry Oakley, (Allman Brothers) and Robbie Kreiger, (The Doors). Thus the name Bloodline, I guess.

This CD mixes hard driving blues with killer southern rock-n-roll. They only did this one album. It has become one of my favorite albums of all time.

It's kind of hard to find and it's pretty pricey used, but IMHO, well worth the search and price.

You're welcome Mofi, and thank you I have it playing now...again. I find it amazing that Joe Banamassa has been around for years and I just recentley discovered him. I can't help but wonder what other talent I am missing. As an example, the other night I was looking for someting to watch on Netflix and came across a concert video of a jazz guitarist, Chieli Minucci and his band Special EFX. I definitly have a new road to explore with his music. One at a time and pray we live long enough to find the majority of them.
