Muddy Waters and Howlin 'Wolf would certainly proud if they knew that their music still is current. But is that the music that played it? A unique Jaein. Blues yes, blues-rock, yes, but it is not the dirty blues of Howlin 'Wolf, Muddy Waters, it is not of communicating with his audience. He was not a "Nimble fingers" on the guitar, he was more of a blues singer with a great band. Howlin 'Wolf was the exact opposite of an ironed suit carrying Joe Bonamassa. He was the unadjusted blues musician, had a big mouth and just like Muddy no "guitar god" ... if there is to be awarded this title at all then fall as a Bonamassa a fast other candidates. Do we need the thousandth version of "Killing Floor" or "I Can not Be Satisfied", we have somewhere already umpteen times heard this title. I think yes, because undoubtedly pulls Joe Bonamassa also the younger crowd to, that the public has never heard before something from Muddy and Howlin '. Joe Bonamassa speaks to the crowd and wants to hear mainstream. When you reach a certain "size", then you Spilet in stages, large halls or the big open-air events. This means you are responsible for a huge entourage. It also means that you can easily contact with the public loses, which at the time it caused the anybody to a small club concert came. I personally love the smaller clubs, where the artist has direct contact with his fans, where he senses how we respond, feedback is important.
It should be mentioned the name of Willie Dixon, the poet among bluesers, the man who wrote the songs for all Blues sizes of spoonful to Killing Floor, Shake for me and Evil (is goin 'on) and You Shook me. He is omnipresent. One thing is certain, the Blues alive and that's a good thing.
