Great chemistry, but virtually no new material and almost live feel

Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa have searched and apparently found. Less than a year after the release of their second joint soul covers album "Seesaw" now been followed by the first live recording "Live in Amsterdam", so to speak, the stage version of the previous album collaborations.

Which brings us to amount to the first tinge of disappointment, because who has hoped for minor or major surprises in the set, unfortunately, has to "smaller" underline. Because really much new is not found in the set of the duo that conjures up a wide, warm sound to the stage with plenty of support, unfortunately. So we can look forward to the previously unpublished Eric Clapton cover "Someday After Awhile", in which exceptionally Joe Bonamassa takes over the lead vocals. In addition, with "Baddest Blues" has found its way into the set, a piece written by Beth Hart. Apart from that, everything is known except the intro and a band-Jam, has to offer us "Live in Amsterdam". At least one or two pieces in a modified or enhanced version was presented, about the developed to a whopping 10 minutes goosebumps number "I'd rather go blind". Without a doubt, you can also excellent at "Close to my Fire" or "Your Heart is as Black as Night" warm, to grooving by "Chocolate Jesus" or elated rock by "Them There Eyes" and "Something's Got a Hold On Me" , Even a real Stampfer is fired at the end of the set, namely "Nutbush City Limits" (Ike & Tina Turner), so that even newcomers can get an idea of ​​the qualities of cooperation by Bonamassa and hard in no time. The biggest purchase incentive is expected next to the beautiful Carre Theatre (which also Within Temptation have made station at its last theater tour) but probably the chemistry between the two leads to be, whose outstanding skills complement each other so beautifully, as if the two never done anything else, as common to be on stage.
