Joe Bonamassa Official - "Had To Cry Today" - Live at Rockpalast

[@rockdinosaur666]

This is the Bonamassa sound that I first latched onto. What a band. They knock this song into a new realm.

[@HALO-JONES]

Taking a hit is a belter as well,I first heard it promoted in guitarist magazine ✌

[@anthonyhitchman9789]

This was jb as he was before he was cleaned up. And sadly that meant Kenny kraemer and Eric czar departed.shame. Great band.

[@xomkong]

what do you mean "has been cleaned up"? haven't known him that long....

[@markwightman6434]

Definitely

[@georgecamilleri5586]

What an impeccable intro

[@hoytbenson6016]

That drummer is a damn powerhouse

[@Cfchild1]

The voicing, notes, and emoting that Joe extracts from that sweet Gibson Les Paul is mind blowing. And he sings while he plays. Hitting strong on all three cylinders!

[@thecitadel1973]

Joe- the greatest guitarist of the modern era.

[@solcasared]

What a fantastic rhythm section, he had simple, plain and so good

[@richardwilliams2326]

These three and their take on this song is extremely awesome

[@lonewolfsurvival3453]

Joe Bonamassa gives me goosebumps every time I see him play, the hair on my arm is standing up right now. He's F'ing amazing.

[@bghse1]

Eric Czar is amazing.....!

[@tommytwogloves16]

5 string bass is amazing.

[@Mykoe9]

The bassist, Eric Czar looks a lot like Jack Cassidy, from the good old days. His playing is out-friggin'-standing. Super excellent.

[@Ken77114]

You must be old like me!!!!!! First saw Jack Cassidy in '68 at the old Carosel Ballroom in SF, as the "new" Jefferson Airplane knocked it silly. Thought Jack was the coolest! Marty Balin, Yorma K., and this gorgeous chick named Grace Slick! She was dressed as Robin Hood and at the break at the goodie stand (we all had munchies! :-)) she stood right behind me, I turned and she smiled a smile to melt me! Then the Dead played. What a buzzing night! I, too, thought of Jack C. immediately! Rockin' on!

[@Mykoe9]

Yep, 63, loved the Airplane. Loved Slick. She sure was a pretty thing. But we all grow older. I used to be pretty too. I've been a pro guitar player for 50 years, almost famous. Those were the days huh?

[@Ken77114]

Thanks Rick! I moved to San Jose, Ca. in Jan. '62 and began my 48 year career in the finish building supply business. My love from early days was the budding blues, R & R music. First 2 concerts were in '58-'59 in Eugene, Or...Jerry Lee Lewis and Fats Domino..sat in folding chairs right in front of them and they smiled at me and my buddy. In the Bay Area 21 years, I have seen the greatest of the greats..the list is too long for here....but McCartney and Linda "Wings Over America" tour then Eric Clapton, both at the SF Cow Palace. Seen Bonnie Raitt (LOVE HER!), Doc and Merle, Lynryd Skynyrd (3 times the originals) ..always closing with "Freebird" for some 15 minutes of mayhem!! Robin Trower, Joe Cocker, Kinks, Leon Redbone, Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young (4 times in various groupings and venues), Joan Baez, B.B. King (WOW!), Janis Joplin before she did Woodstock..oh my, such awesome memories of fun (as I remember). As Timothy Leary said.."If you remember the '60's, you weren't there!" :-) Gonna' see Joe Bonamassa (my new hero) 10/16/17 in Eugene, Or. at the Hult Center..9 rows back orchestra ($125. per). Never stop rockin' brother!

[@rickdaystar477]

Ken Skeen When.my phone went off I was happy to see it was your reply post. Thanks for the very cool stories, I can only wish for those days. Joe Bonamasso has that special something when he is on stage, I'm not gonna say ' perform ". Its an experience to see him pour his essence and soul through his guitar. Yes there are great guitarists that are right on technically and hit all the notes but Joe is beyond that. When Clapton requests playing with you, you know there is something very special going on. Joe seems down to earth and not filled with himself and is quite generous. How many artists give away albums to download for free? I hope the show in October to see Joe is another special experience for you to add to all those great memories of the past.

[@billridge7854]

Still like that boney,white boy From Texas.

[@michaelellis7787]

Up there and close with Cream ..... great "power" trio!

[@Troubadix07]

Great Eric Czar,the Best Bass Player for Joe

[@DirkjeA]

Wow, I loved this song on the Blind Faith album so much. First time I heard it, back than, it totally swept me of my feet. I remember those days, dancing the night away, having great bonfires at the beach, lots of friends, wine, fun cigarettes, nice food, LSD, oh my, what great memories of a time so long ago. Being a granny now, I am totally in awe how Mr. Bonamassa does a great job with his version of this song. This time the cover totally matches up with the original. Thanks for sharing.

[@Ken77114]

I am so with you DirkjeA!!!!! All the above. We lived in La Selva Beach below Aptos on the Monterey Bay. What parties...medical LSD, indica pure, and a touch of medical coke. Oh Lord! I am 76 now and never thought I'd make 60! I, too, am a grandpa and old! Man was it fun or what!?

[@davidhillewig]

Ken Skeen hehe that's cool. good times. I'm from 83, born too late dammit :-)

[@anthonyhitchman9789]

This is jb when he could do anything he liked. Long solo's. He didn't give a damn not at £5 ahead. Now he's high street market .Anything up to £200.00 pound a head. Worth every penny. Go jb.

[@dianakesl1814]

Your post was just the way it was back in those days in St. Augustine Florida. Getting high down at Summer Haven Matanzas Inlet building a bonfire on the beach. Waiting for the sun to come up to go surfing and listening to the ocean pound the rocks. Watching the orange sunshine through slits in my eyes. haha!! I loved blind faith , Hendrix, Zepplin etc. Learning songs on my Gibson 345 and chasing women around , going skinny dipping and looking at the phosphorous under the water. I actually think JB is a step beyond Blind Faith as far as his guitar playing. Never thought that was possible back then. Thank God I made it this far. (Rusty)

[@ireneruthfox]

Joe & The Boys, kicking major ass. Fresh take on a classic song.

[@colink4823]

The ultimate power trio bar none. This lineup was perfect

[@Curiosissima]

I can NEVER get enough of this video!!! How I wish I was there at this concert!! Amazing Bonamassa!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@michaelquirk9453]

Unquestionably the singularly most under rated guitar player. He is top 5 on any list...probably top 3...if not # 1

[@anthonyhitchman9789]

No.1. Mate. For years to come.

[@paulguerin7721]

Damn, I never get tired of this.

[@kevinbowman7572]

Awesome- Blind Faith on steroids!!

[@tornadoalimary]

What a lovely treat to listen to.... Blown away.

[@richardnish6469]

Always thougt this an exceptional cong, best version yet!!!

[@anthonyhitchman9789]

No doubt about that but sadly for him to become the Musician he is today he had change. He did and now he’s making millions like his talent deserves. E dosnt forget his favourites like anton fig bowgey bowles e still uses them in studio. I just wish he could find a slot somewhere for kenny Cramme and Eric Czar.

[@monalund794]

They sound so good toghether.I am totally in love with this... 👍🤘😎🎸🎸🎸😎🤘👍💕💕

[@John-fv8sc]

Brilliant peice of mysic.

[@jamesduffield8335]

WOW...who are the 17 PPL who didn't like this...what are you daft???....killer musicianship

[@jackobssonn]

Awesome! At 0:42 I started to sing: "A modern day warrior mean, mean stride, today's Tom Sawyer mean, mean pride" :-D

[@luiscamelo955]

Haha it's true !!

[@jasonkeith9317]

Me too I thought they were gonna break out some Rush!!

[@Bob-lu7xg]

Joe just became my idle that's the real deal

[@SingerTalents]

Great live performance!

[@alphasixfive1658]

Love it when it gets heavy !

[@crazyhorse2995]

This concert got me hooked for life. Since seen him live but always favour this. ELECTRIC!!!

[@meowykzowy]

Smokin' Joe. Il capo di tutti capi (Boss of all the bosses).

[@JackyGelineau]

Le premier DVD Joe Bonamassa que j' ai acheté, fantastique concert, et que de chemin parcouru par Joe depuis, A VOIR ET REVOIR SANS MODERATION

[@josephschneider3985]

Joe Bonamassa power trio covering super hot version of Steve Winwoods "Had to cry today" OUCH!!!

[@ThomasMetal75]

Blind Faith

[@richardbishop4807]

Joe, did a great job playing this song!!!!

[@nrp66]

BLOWN AWAY!!!!!

[@nrp66]

I love to watch this and project my consciousness onto his and therefore I am him, a rock god that everyone dreams of being, and everyone adores you.Totally cool.

[@fearofnot]

Really loving the sound here! :)

[@Spartakis3]

Wish his old freinds would join back again ! They are amazing crew !!

[@andyk295]

Intro sounds like a wee bit of Peter Frampton influence !! HOT Hot Hot !! Nice job on this song !!

[@rog0622]

Outstanding cover! I love Blind Faith too!

[@johnnyboync1]

eric czar is a bass beast!

[@DirkjeA]

Totally agree with you, he is just so super cool.... one of the best.

[@Mykoe9]

Absolutely one of the best I've ever heard. This guy's kickin my butt! Excellent playing!

[@lornayoung96]

Hot!!!

[@dccoats5901]

@RPG 808 No bass player can do anything but praise him, he is bad ass.

[@richmoniz5305]

I always thought that this was JB's best lineup. IT seemed to me that Czar pushed Joe out of his comfort zone to maybe another level. Anyway I wish that they would have played together longer. Props to Kramme on drums too.

[@1drumsmoke]

Agreed, Eric's not a pocket bassist and there was pretty much two lead guitars when they played, they could of made this a progressive trio, its ashamed because I haven't seen Eric since.

[@anthonyhitchman9789]

Unfortunately jb was a much bigger package. He was up for stardom. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE ERIC and Kenny work him again but Eric you can't smoke.

[@LucenaBlues]

KILLER!!!

[@MrChadbag]

Looks like the bass player is rocking a Lace Bassbar pickup. Sounds nice.

[@mikeeka]

Paid $6 to see Joe at Santa Fe brewing company with Ryan mcgarvey Several Years ago. Incredible show. So fortunate to know of him before stardom.

[@scuss2]

Somebody I knew 15 years ago introduced me to Ryan McGarvey's You Tube videos. He said you like the Blues. Check out a local favorite from the big city. Then he said the guy that found Ryan was Joe Bonamassa. I bought Joe's Dust Bowl CD, but his music after that and the musician's just wasn't Kenny or Eric. Then Joe found Tyler Bryant and his earlier music was great. Now, Tyler is married to a musician and their duets are cool to listen to. He grew up too!

[@nigellino]

Joe made me cry today...

[@conniedoyle2587]

Love Joe!!!!

[@corbettcockcroft4946]

this was the first i heard of bonamasa went out and bought the cd am big fan now

[@Carlo8836]

[@TheBassfresh]

[@dianacrow7509]

I'm beginning to understand... you truly are a blessing!

[@MrDSOTM73]

i wish there was like a 10 hour block of the first 1:45 of the song!

[@ImSylla]

Great!!!

[@lornayoung6947]

This was before stardom just as hot today he always does 200% no matter he's sang it 100 times per pro

[@Troubadix07]

..ein wirklich geiles Stück..schade dass Eric nicht mehr mit Joe spielt ..beim Live Konzert in Saarbrücken vermisste ich Eric schmerzlich..die Music hat seit seinem Fortgang an Qualität verloren!

[@Ben-hp4gb]

I think that the Telecaster style guita he used in this gig isnt a wooden body , and that its a resonate kind of metal😎 what are your thoughts?

[@tornadoalimary]

Joe i am a homebody of massive responsibility. You rock and live your tale... Though blimey i do declare you do make me feel rather peculiar. In a very nice way...

[@tornadoalimary]

You as hungry as me find me.

[@christinibalerini]

oh, But,sorry Absolutely fantastic giutar playing!....

[@skink3181]

The crowd says it all...

[@rickdaystar477]

Eric Czar is one of the best or Joe would not have him on the same stage.
