Album Description
Two 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.

 Nowhere on Earth November 9, 2008
J. Moody (Oklahoma City, Oklahoma United States)
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 a minimum it doesn't seem to interfere with the moments captured here.
The production of this live opus was handled by none other than Kevin Shirley most noted for recent work remastering the Led Zepelin DVD How The West Was Won. Kevin "Caveman" Shirley has been working with Joe for the last 2 studio albums and this live album is really the crowning achievment of their relationship thus far. It captures Joe's intensity and the musician ship of Joe's current band. Bogie Bowles, drums, Carmine Rojas, bass, Rick Melick, keyboards.
One thing in particular nowhere on Earth can you find a 2 CD package this good priced like this.
Joe Bonamassa rocks! November 4, 2008
T. Wright (Bennington, Nebraska United States)
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.
If he comes anywhere near your town - buy a ticket! You'll be glad you did.
Next best thing to being there. October 30, 2008
J. Blue (Holbrook, MA USA)
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.)
Joes the best October 20, 2008

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 and adds some dynamite technique. Joe has said that with this disk he was trying to make a live disk worthy of being listened to as we listen to "The Allman Brothers Live at The Fillmore East," "Wheels of Fire," or "Band of Gypsys." It may not surpass them, but I can't think of another CD release in the last 20 years that I would consider even close to being in the same ballpark as those great disks except this one. And I actually thing the second disk is a pinnacle in his playing. "Sloe Gin," "Django'" and "High Water Everywhere" are just sweet, creative picking. You really won't regret laying out the coin for this one.
