I'm 57 years old and have been playing guitar since I was 11. This is THE FINEST rendition of this song ever presented! I saw him live in Tucson, but he didn't play it. I was waiting . . . .But even without hearing this live, in-person, it is clear that this man is a master-class professional. He is so smooth and effortless, I just can't get over it. He is a member of the True Master Class in my book for a number of reasons. Many of which are on display throughout this performance. Thank you Joe, and keep it up!

[@johnkoval1898]

A slightly experienced Joe, and a slightly experienced Eric, and a slightly experienced Danny, doing a great job!

[@NUKE-W.E.F.]

This an awesome cover of this tune, and one of my favorite Bonamassa videos. God bless Jimi Hendrix and RIP.

[@nosebeak]

The man can play guitar,period.

[@luckyvet]

He's not a bad singer either!

[@jrtbme]

I was 16 when the Jimi Hendrix Experience blew our shit away. Joe's cover is equally awesome. Rock and Roll will never die!

[@PhotographyAdventure]

This is the best cover ever of Are You Experienced?, as unique as it is brilliant 🙌

[@Madadader]

I am so tired of people praising classics so fucking highly. Here Joe is working his ass off and always has. He impressed the King of Blues from a young age and he's enjoying himself here in his youth but people will bitch that he's "too busy being a poser rock god" or "karaoke" first of all that's just stupid and second well what the hell is he supposed to do? He's a great player. He does the blues and blues rock well. He worked to the top and he's on top now in the blues world. Jimi was great and I will always feel amazing putting on my Hendrix albums and just listening but just because someone didnt play in the 60's-70's doesn't mean they're shit. Respect the fact there are younger people still out to respect and keep the genres you hold so high. Joe is great.

[@DianaWard01]

When real rock came along (I was a teen when Buddy Holly died!) I had to search and often endure a lot of so-so songs to find a good guitar solo by someone gifted. Now all I have to do is come here to KZbin and listen to anything Bonamassa. I am glad I lived long enough!

[@garys.4789]

You have to check out Rory Gallagher

[@massimocarbone5518]

The best of the best!!

[@jimfix1462]

Can't stop watching this. Joe, Jimi called use your Strat!!

[@paradox7743]

When JIMI put this all together in 67'-He knew how the backwords solo would sound played straight which blows my mind just to start off with. Bonamassa Really gets it Nobody can outdue Hendrix on this one but damn if anybody enters that rare air it's happening right here. That the stuff of Legend...

[@matthewpaluch777]

R U Xperienced? Well, I am! Outstanding version Joe, keep carrying on bro!

[@NUKE-W.E.F.]

Great song, great tone, great performance!

[@tstyerpanther]

Has got to be one of the all-time small venue displays of guitar prowess of all time- would love to have been there in his early days when he was just thrashing. I could watch this a million times- truly a masterpiece. One for the ages. I put this up there with any of the Gods of guitar- and the girls are a plus!!!!

[@mypockets1]

Come on really ? what ru his Uncle?

[@tonelok]

Everything about this performance is awesome.

[@DoobTube71]

If Jimi Hendrix's guitar and Eric Johnson's guitar had a baby,....*** BAM! *** ...Joe Bonamassa's bad-ass-baby Strat playing "Are You Experienced?" :)

[@Wintersteel747]

This freaking Awesome!!! 15 minutes of Killer Groove!!! Rock On Joe Bonamassa!!!

[@johnpiccolo7537]

he keep me going Joe and I appreciate that keeps me alive

[@mtr1958]

I was at this concert. It was at Piere's Entertainment Center in Fort Wayne, IN about 2002. I had seen Joe more than once at this venue but this was the only time he had the dancing girls. As many have said on this page he didn't need them. I was a fan from the first time I heard him. He comes back to Fort Wayne in November at the Embassy Theater...I've got my ticket!

[@mikevega7740]

Best version of are you experienced I ever heard. Dang

[@daveyojets]

Nailed the tone too

[@johnpiccolo7537]

thank you for saving my soul

[@123must]

Thanks !

[@daveyon1915]

wow just great what more can you say

[@tencz57]

Joe starts playing . That it's for me till he done ,finished . I don't move , i listen and enjoy every note. . H_ll Yeah , I've heard them all and he's right up there with the best of the best . Would love to hear Joe play 'Alvin Lee'& 10 Years After , I'd Love to Change the World.' Yeah !!

[@cristianobreggie2994]

Just pure feeling

[@johnnytruck2009]

Love it!

[@LyonByTheSea]

Smokin Joe!

[@dano1234ize]

think Jimi wud be proud of this version.

[@klanggnomvideo--sound---pr2435]

what a guitar playing real unbelivable yesssssss

[@THEJOEDAVISBAND]

Cool video. Respect. Hendrix.

[@paquimajuelos8111]

GENIAL JOE B., no se puede superar !!

[@johnpiccolo7537]

thanks

[@gregdemeterband]

Joe is playing what I believe Gary Moore would play; or one of his awesome version. Joe is a Beast!@

[@enriquesiepe9840]

Magic!!

[@tedmich]

there's your problem right there...this is an ACID song, not a beer song. Check Eric Johnson's version, he plays the backwards guitar note for note. He doesn't let go quite enough but way more than Joe

[@WileECoyotey]

Joe still tore it up .

[@bmann792]

Joe made it his own and it has much more of his personality with a touch of the original. This is equally as good

[@richietownsend6737]

Nonsense.

[@Sundancer2712]

YIPPIE, EVERYONE A ROCKIN' HAPPY SUNNY WEEKEND.........................

[@sarasarah1810]

you cant mess with joe....😊

[@johnpiccolo7537]

mountain time is this something I cry too everytime I hear

[@corbettcockcroft4946]

loved this cover has soul!

[@DanieleChanylorelei]

superbe !

[@BaileyEvans]

wow, would have been a sick show!

[@mikevega7740]

Best version ever

[@peterhobit]

Love the sound, edit those dancers out!

[@tornadoalimary]

Humbled.. Love you.

[@scalesr4]

I hear quite a few Eric Johnson licks mixed in there! Cliffs of Dover meets Are you experienced! Sounds good!

[@bifaithful]

Johnson has a couple good covers of this

[@andyginterblues2961]

Looks like Fender LACE sensor pickups on Joe's Stratocaster, and I assume that the groupies who are grinding on the stage are wearing lace panties.

[@nickkokenspargermusic8666]

Every one let’s just take a second to recognize that this guy and John Mayer are the exact same age

[@MagMusic]

Yes, and I personally think Mayer is the better guitarist. I'm not here to bash Bonamassa. I just think Mayer is a truly exceptional guitarist; I don't feel that way about Bonamassa, who's clearly technically gifted.

[@ROO2294]

Wish I could have been there.

[@evatrussell9436]

❤

[@awesomejohn1891]

3.22 bass player looking to jam with a smile and get stepped over :)

[@willidaeppen8121]

Randy Hansen is the real Hendrix Deal.

[@paradox7743]

Hey @ 2:37 J B Proved his worth!

[@WileECoyotey]

Do you realize how many hours and hours of playing he has done over his life ?

[@mrguitarwho5500]

it certainly shows.

[@arva7821]

He is playing since 4 years old.

[@OlympicPlatinum]

Gotta be a few hundred hours at least. He's pretty good.

[@DanaBroderick]

🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

[@danielserafini8463]

This is great ….but Eric Johnson really crushed this one in 85

[@scottrobbins6216]

Austin ?

[@tornadoalimary]

Bloody Hell!!

[@jimikguitar]

And then, Bonamassa goes to driibling. Joe, you dont need that. Ok, in the end you did it. Almost the sAme emotion. Why all the guitarists like to play Jimi's songs ? Because they were the most beautiful. They were.

[@jeffreybateham9527]

Joe .......... need i say more????

[@hippypower69]

Its cool when the greats do a cover or two, check out Randy Hansen for Jimi covers he's awesome\,,/

[@hippypower69]

4sure man absolutely\,,/

[@Stereostupid]

Randy is the best

[@huejass3]

11:49 onward so goddamn epic

[@geneparmesan8827]

Looks like a Clapton strat ?

[@allenanderson4911]

The bass is so far down in the mix... can't be heard

[@Madurbu]

JB - you're awesome..but the dancing girls ????

[@KirkLundgreen]

Initially I thought the same way as you. He certainly does not need dancing girls on his stage, his talent speaks to itself. But I thought back in the Hendrix experience, this is what you got, only with a lot more tie dye. He was channeling the Hendrix experience.

[@greekfreak1980]

This is a real old video from 2002.The stupid Go-Go Dancers were actually an idea of the guy who onwed the venue,which was a pretty sleazy club,where this was recorded. You can actually see most of the people in the crowd are getting drunk. Joe himself said in an interview that he's pretty emberrassed,when he's watching this live video,back then he was a newcomer and was playing any venue he could,no matter how sleazy it was.Thank God this has change nowadays. :-)

[@777wanabe]

***** i think that is Piere's in Ft. Wayne, indiana.

[@nickm.9474]

777wanabe Yep, and it's still sleazy.

[@guitarplayer2846]

This is before Joe hit it big. When you reach success, you no longer need dancing girls. To me, artists always sound better before they get rich because they're really working for it. It's hard to write songs about life on the streets from an Hollywood penthouse.

[@tornadoalimary]

I await a very good lovin life ahead with my most best friend.

[@DanielPOURSACCONFOLENS]

et enfin la dernière pour vous c'est celle que je préfère et de loin après Sia bonne journée a tous

[@johnpiccolo7537]

inspections

[@tinahaynes696]

I do like this cover. It’s hard to screw up the tune, but I like Eric Johnson’s cover. It’s more accurate to to the recording.

[@UltraBluesRocker]

Damn the accuracy, Joe is atomic punk here

[@bucketrance]

10:00 on overdid bbking

[@marierosegastou]

Moi ça me plait beaucoup

[@joegrillman]

Looks like he is playing an early Clapton Strat?

[@DoobTube71]

joegrillman ditto. looks like one of the '80's era Clapton lace sensor pickup models. Probably totally custom for JB...?

[@ernestberry5226]

a pastiche and only this ....

[@racefan32]

Anyone know what kind of Guitar he's using?

[@racefan32]

No it was a serious question

[@stevegloss3116]

yngwing Mulmstien?

[@hazor777]

It’s a good performance- tho some things are kinda annoying, like his inflection in the vocals - but 😂😂 this is so 2K / Coyote Ugly silly shit with these stupid HOs dancing by the amps etc. - gimmie an Fing break! That is just cheesy- and I doubt Joe had much if anything to do with it , but it’s just dumb

[@dataglasses]

Bonamassa Beer

[@atanboy]

Super Power Trio + JB on strat rock's better...I think!

[@Holgi2608]

Joe, you must be an alien ... very horney ;-)

[@sebashess4768]

Since Wijchen 1984, Iam EXP irienced,greetings from me in NOW with a name from, MY past: FOETJOE ( shout hear my SOUND......and when you are making love, sometimes: highway-children zouf-zoef...I found....and promised 2 show her how FREEKY IAM, 8 of SWORDS, I hope someBODY will understand what Iam trying 2 say, a guitar.

[@paldenno1]

Eric Johnsons ACL '88 perfomance makes this one look a bit silly. Think he would do it better than this now, though.

[@trollslandan]

True dat. While EJ ´88 clearly channels the spirit of the Hendrix´ song,which in it self "channels god" Bonamassa is just preoccupied as posing rock god. The spirit is lost. No wonder the women were just grinding their asses on the stage, lol.

[@pmkrak]

This is an example of of why some people shouldn't cover Jimi Hendrix.

[@MagMusic]

Exactly.

[@Thisisahandle701]

Here are two kids who cover the song excellently, faithfully capturing the spirit of the original: I think Bonamassa massacred the cover despite Godlike guitar playing. It's about feel not skill. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGave4drZZ6ne7c kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXmlmmNqjKadn6s

[@elliotthampton5160]

I don't know why you take exception to the girls...sex ,drugs ,rock & roll ,etc. etc......

[@prettikat]

Great performance! The women are a bit much, but that is my opinion. I am glad his performance since then do not have the bump and grind women. Don't care for the special effects either. OH well….it is all water under the bridge now. He is fantastic and I adore him!

[@mallrat11]

yeah, the dancing girls were pretty tacky

[@THEJOEDAVISBAND]

These commercials ruin these videos...you tube is starting to suck

[@WileECoyotey]

GO away then

[@leohernandezcolonful]

He looks like Elton John haha

[@cwnjrcn]

Joe bonamassa is god

[@bendream544]

20 plus pedals and still hasn't a jot of the original feeling of the song. He is a good player but it's too mechanical in places with too much pedal mania

[@briannewell6064]

I'd like to think that the rent a strippers were not Joe's idea. So distracting from a great cover.

[@robertvanhoy1642]

sorry that was way to much in an ERIC JOHNSON style i love it but i hope the next time i see JB he reforms it .....to JOE as if he'd do it in 2020 :)

[@Knight14649]

Watch Joes Facebook page tomorrow 03-14-20 he’s releasing a video from tour de force of “are you experienced “

[@ezo4]

Watch Eric Johnson - this guy is clown shoes

[@theolddon322]

All good, but the weird chick-on-chick stuff needs to go.

[@michaelwirth6843]

Some guitarists never play interesting notes, this guy is one of them. Boring! Jimi Hendrix is sooooooo much more interesting.

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

whats with the quasi-lesbian side show

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

***** LOl, exactly. They were right to fear rock n roll right from the start. It's all about the power of guitar and lesbian side shows.

[@markyncole]

whynottalklikeapirat Is that a question or a statement? Take it up with The Complaint Department or contact your State Congressman and get to the bottom of this foolishness.

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

markyncole It's an observation - besides, who's complaining?

[@markyncole]

Than it was a statement and not a question though I'm not sure what your point was. jk

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

markyncole It was a sort of spontaneous puzzlement rooted in a general appreciation for both Bonamassa and Lesbian sideshows, which did however reflect the point of view that there seems to be a bit of a performative glitch between what he is doing - the stage persona he tends to employ, and what they are doing, making one wonder if it's a deliberate part of the show or a spontaneous exhibitionistic inspiration on the part of the audience. We've all seen weirder parties than that I hope, so I don't think a congressman is called for at this point, unless you'd like to call one about my comment ...

[@ezo4]
