Keys~ Reese Wynans
Guitar~Josh Smith

[@cruisingthethaiway6881]

Let not forget the legendary, REESE WYNANS. He always deserves a tip of the hat.

[@lastdaysguitar]

I've said for many years nothing would get me to go on a cruise... I may have to revise that opinion.

[@amjrpain919]

👋🤨👍

[@rodanone4895]

that's how it happened to me. a Bonamassa cruise is amazing.

[@TheMitchy37]

You won't regret it, it's an amazing experience 🎸🎶

[@jammergreg]

Go, you’ll love it. I was there the afternoon of 3/16. Me and my buddy arrived late but one of the security guards sawI had a cane and I got in the very, very, very very front row. I could’ve polished Joe shoes. That was a bucket list vacation. Mind you I’ve been a guitar player for 55 years & love the blues. There were a dozen other world-class bands. All that in one venue. Just book it if you can afford it.

[@ulissespacifico]

🙋🏽‍♂️ Me too… 😂

[@kylecravens6501]

As a guitarist I could watch this so many times - once just to see how changes pickups throughout the song, one to watch his right hang attack, once to watch his vibrato, once to see his subtle but effective use of effects, one (well much more than once) to learn the riffs, once to see how uses the volume control on guitar and many times to admire that killer vintage Strat. This is just a gem of a video! Thank you :)

[@MartinSmith]

The pinch harmonics and volume tremelo remind me of another JB Jeff Beck !!

[@kevingartland723]

I remember when Joe Bonamassa used to play this song with Eric Czar and Kenny Kramme in the early 2000's. Long before the backup singers and 2nd guitar player and organ player. He was much better to see live about 20 years ago. Bring back the 3 piece band!

[@BluesRockAcademy]

He was far more interesting then.

[@tomate2008]

joe is a outstanding guitar player and deserves all his success, such a humble person he doesn't have a bad word to say about anybody, love joe, that's why other guitar players want to jam with him.

[@dr.buzzvonjellar8862]

Doesn’t Joe’s playing get deeper and more soulful with every passing year?

[@tcm6756]

Very True. A little Jeff Beck channeling too. Really great!

[@BaroqueBlues]

He's good. But I prefer his vibrato when he was a teen in bloodline, sounded slower like srv's vibrato, now he has extra-fast eric clapton vibrato.

[@timothyminozz]

As long as you can listen.

[@timothyminozz]

I have seen jeff beck in melbourne early 80' . No contest my musical mate.

[@_Dominant_7_Flat_5]

Joe always delivers 100%. It is unheard of. The level of showmanship with this fellow is staggering.

[@sandragriffiths9692]

I just love Reese, and Joe , well, what can you say. He is still young...can he get any better, he always manages to doesn't he👌👍💙🇬🇧

[@rositachadronet6187]

Wow! I had no idea that the audio would sound this great on a cruise! And I was thinking I would have seen Joe in jeans or cool n' casual but not one of his classy suits! Wish I didn't have a fear of not seeing Land or I would be right on the ship! Oh, you never disappoint! Land or sea, open air or concert hall--- Joe, you are the very best of 'em all! 💋 🌹 rosita as if I wouldn't say something!!! xxx

[@14_yote5_oh5]

Joe's versatile playing g ability is unmatched! Will always be a fan! Everytime he comes to the PNW I see him!

[@MrGTO-ze7vb]

An Excellent Cruise Joe...............Thanks missmoke007...!!

[@johncrace911]

Joe is the best ambassador for guitar right now

[@franka.9419]

Thank you Joe Bonamassa. We have lost many, Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher and many others. Thank you missmoke007

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

Joe admired Gary & Rory both. He played Rory's Strat onstage in London about 10 years ago.

[@rositachadronet6187]

@@joeyhumphrey4536 was that when he did Sloe Gin??? I first saw the video on St Patrick's Day, in Rory's honor! I loved it and of course I left a comment buried somewhere else in a comment! I love Joe! 🌹 rosita

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

Joe played Rory's strat at London's Royal Albert Hall in 2013. What a cconcert! Please order the DVD if you really like Joe. The best investment you will make. I have watched it a 100 times. Incredible!

[@rositachadronet6187]

@@joeyhumphrey4536 Is that the one where he borrowed Rory's Strat and did Sloe Gin or I will have to order all of his CD's! Surprised that I haven't! I just saw that video I mentioned and yes, I think only the best about Joe and much love for this gifted man! 🌹 rosita again!!!

[@joeyhumphrey4536]

@@rositachadronet6187 No, He did The Ballard of John Henry on the (Tour of De Force) in England with Rory's Strat. Worth buying.

[@brainstain2904]

Best guitar player around😊!

13:54 the iPhone did great….the noise caused by the wind can be eliminated with a wind sock … thoroughly enjoyed the vid 😊

[@phillbradshaw7190]

I listen 2 this vid every morning 2 wake up. Thanks 4 sharing it !!

[@l8tapex]

Was a pleasure to be front in New Orleans. I was so glad Josh Smith is playing... but he too is great in his own right. Been following Josh for few years. The bass players is ex New Orleans police FBI agent!

[@bobhope3716]

This is the best Joe Bonemassa performance I've ever seen.

[@TomTom-xp2jb]

One of the all time great guitarists!!! 👍

[@timcaldwell4305]

[@davidbaise5137]

Remarkable that such a humble music winds up on a cruise for those fortunate enough to be able to be there.

[@Chavee496tee]

Subpar sound? Takes me back to the 70's... raw and gritty! Thanks a million for this missmoke007, esp. for those who couldn't make it!

[@missmoke007thebestmusicvideos]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@PeterCiesla]

"subpar audio"? what?! This is excellent!

[@amjrpain919]

Joe just keeps getting Better and Better! And He Was Already One of The Best...

[@jammergreg]

I was in the very front row to the right of the stage next to Joe and keyboard, last Thursday afternoon. I could have polished Joe’s shoes when he was playing at SUPER HOT Solo at about 8 mins. At 11:36 you can hear me talking to my buddy cause I’m so close to the keyboards and the volume is soft. Lol The cruise was a musical blast!!! My wife played that intro song last year for me when I was 63 days in ICU, 17 weeks total in the hospital. And I went on this cruise… Life‘s funny that way!🙏💃🏻🎸

[@junecarass9483]

No doubt the best blues player in the world! Seen Joe playing this live in Brighton! The best ever❤😂

[@Bona-who]

We were right next to you- last two people stage left- good times.

[@sandragriffiths9692]

So how was Reese?

[@jammergreg]

@@Bona-who were you the ones that gave me a Joe Bonamassa Setlist from 2014, that blew away for a second? Lol.

Joe's solo starting at 8:03 is fire. That rhythm section is great. The drummer hits it hard! Always a good view of the action from you. Thank you!

Superb, as ever! Thanks for filming! Only 47 days until my wife see JB again on the first night of his UK 'tour' at Bournemouth....I'll never forget JB's first ever UK show at Mr Kyps in Parkstone, Poole UK - Mr Kyps was originally my middle school!!!

[@missmoke007thebestmusicvideos]

Sad to hear Mr. Kyps has gone~

[@knopflerfan7110]

Indeed so. Mr Kyps closed in Summer 2018...

[@jammergreg]

This is Joe’s “ cause we ended as lovers“ which is a tribute I played to Jeff Beck, now that he’s gone. Greg Koch two days earlier did just that.

[@scottshand8559]

As always what a great video! Thank you to missmoke007! And who doesn't take their '54 Strat on a cruise? That is a guitar I always like hearing Joe play, one of the best.
