Thank you for this gigantic interview! We learn a lot of essential things for someone who wants to get into music, but also for young people or less young people who want to succeed in their professional life and especially their personal life. Joe's advice is a real diamond of wisdom and personal experience, a river of beauty and intelligence very rare coming directly from his sincere and generous heart. Joe is a giant of the art of life set to music and interpreted with talent and free spirit! We bow before perfection!😎
hi good ep saw him in portchester ny first time show was great hope he comes to the stamford palace some day in ct usa.
Got to see Di Meola at Sac State in the early 2000's. It was an acoustical gig in a small university theater. Fantastic.
Forever grateful to Joe for turning me on to the Cold Stares!
Joe's influence runs deep! 👍
Mega zajímavý! 🔥
Děkujeme! ❤
Dobrý rozhovor 👍
Jsme rádi, že se rozhovor líbí! 👍
Zajímavé 😊
Díky moc! 🙌
Independent Record label - Impressive
"Impressively Brilliant"
Glad you like it!
Difficult to imagine anything being better than My 21st Century Blues. I've heard almost every song being great on the album version, acoustic piano solo, the usual live stage band, and full orchestra. Wow, do it again girl!
Absolutely agree-My 21st Century Blues is a masterpiece! Raye keeps proving she can deliver on every level, whether it's acoustic, live with her band, or even with a full orchestra. She's truly one of a kind-here’s to many more “wow” moments from her! 🎶✨
We love you Joe!
Joe’s the best-always here for his fans and the music. Thanks for the support! 🎸
Look forward to the 2025 Spring Tour.
Exciting times ahead! Joe’s tours never disappoint-2025 Spring Tour is going to be epic! 🎸🔥
@ Fantastic interview as well. Thank you so much for the quality content 👍 Tix for the Munich gig were ordered before the interview ended.
Fantastic interview with Joe B... thank you ☕🎸
Glad you like it! 🎧 Tune in for more talks!
just gorgeous love her to bits,lovely person too
She is amazing! 💙
Good interview
The way he tell. the tech guys to stop making noise and to basically shuta at the begining up is obnoxious. i would have throw the chair at him.
👌
Glad you like it! 🎉
Don't tell me she is 27. Nooooooooo.
yeah... and?
fabuls interview thanks cris good health to u and mick ❤
Glad you enjoyed the talk! Tune in for more 🎧
Well, I stopped watching this 2 mins in; you DO NOT speak to your supporting team like that! Yet again another beautiful example as to why Mr B is such a polarised artists. I stand firm that he is a legendary player, but his character is less pleasing. Such a great shame.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! Joe is passionate about creating the best experience for his audience, and in this case, he stepped in to ensure the recording quality met the high standards everyone deserves. The venue had already been carefully set up for the interview, and unexpected interruptions can be a real challenge in such a sensitive audio environment. While it may have come across strongly, it was all about respecting the hard work of the production team and delivering something extraordinary for fans. We hope you give the episode another chance-it’s filled with fantastic insights and moments worth watching!
I was there as production guy when this happened. These were some guys from the venue and even though they were kindly asked not to make noises several time before the filming, they just did not respect our kind request. Joe was a bit harsh but trust me that it was justified.
She can write, she can sing for days, she's daring... Bravo.
She is amazing! ❤️
Joe showed up at my business once. Once! He is a dick! If he ever comes back, he will be escorted off the property.
As if.
There should be a lot more views here!!! Thanks for such a great interview🫶💋
There should! Thanks a lot 😊 We are new here 🎧 Hope we will get more views soon 🙏
ICON
She really is!
RAYE can sing EVERY genre. Super star ✨
No doubt about it-Raye’s range is extraordinary!
Here I am being that commenter. But for the record, I am a player. Pretty foundationally blues. But, while I was a gigging musician, I was also a janitor for about a decade. The opening where Joe shut down the guys working.... that was as far as I watched. Moving chairs is their thing like playing guitar is others'.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! The moment in the beginning was a bit of an unexpected hiccup. Joe, being the seasoned pro he is, was just trying to make sure the audio and focus stayed solid for the shoot-it wasn’t meant to disrespect anyone working behind the scenes. The venue was already set up for filming, so the interruption caught us all off guard. We have a lot of respect for everyone involved, from the crew to the production team, and we’re all about keeping things smooth for everyone. Hope you give the rest of the episode a shot-there’s some great stuff in there! 🎸😊
@@dopeYEAHtalk I am just some guy, so I want to say I very much appreciate this thoughtful comment. I looked for an email address because I did and do not want to be 'that' guy out in public. I am not a troll. I actually care about such things... so, let me just say thanks for taking the time here. You don't owe me that and it is not lost on me. I will watch other vids on your channel for sure and wish you well.
@@BlugubriousMusic Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful message-it truly means a lot to us. We’re all about genuine conversations here, and your care and perspective are greatly appreciated. We're glad to have you with us, and we hope you enjoy exploring the other videos on our channel. Wishing you all the best too! 🙌
Ah. Does your mother still dress you?
@ChrisShortyAllen she's dead... Died in an ambulance two days before Christmas... And she did not take care of me when I was little I dressed myself... So there might be something to your question.
Very well done guys, awesome interview, you really made her feel at home... Loved the musical snippets! Thanks, peace and love from Bavaria!
Thank you so much! 🙏 We’re glad you enjoyed it! Greetings from Prague, and sending peace and love right back to Bavaria! 🌍🎶
Awesome interview!
Glad you like it! Tune in for more talks 🎧
@@dopeYEAHtalk I already have. Saw Raye’s interview then I happened to see you’d interviewed Joe Bonamassa. One of my favorite blues guitarists!
@@LukeVanGeest Amazing! It's great you find our interviews interesting. Joe is an outstanding bluesman :) Subscribe to keep updated about more talks that are coming soon 🎧
👍 great stuff.. love the UFO record player in the background. my friend's dad had one of those back in the 80s 😬
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊 The UFO record player is such a cool retro touch, right? Brings back those '80s vibes in the best way-your friend's dad had great taste! 🚀🎶
Nice interview...Raye is so grounded!
Thank you! We're so glad you enjoyed it-Raye’s down-to-earth vibe really shines through! 🌟
Great interview, she is so incredible:’)
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it-she truly is incredible! 😊🎶
she‘s our mother 😍
One of the most talented artists alive ❤
She’s just incredible!
She really is! We love her! 👏✨
Fantastic interview. Well done.
Thank you so much! We're glad you enjoyed the interview-Joe was an amazing guest to have on, and we’re thrilled to share it with everyone!
I'm his curious on his thoughts on ticket Master
That’s a great question! Hearing Joe's perspective on Ticketmaster would definitely be interesting. Maybe a topic for a future conversation? Stay tuned! 😊🎶
What an amazing guy! He deserves all that he has earned. So talented and humble too. Always awesome!❤❤❤
Thank you! Joe’s talent and dedication definitely shine through. Glad you enjoyed the interview!
Joe is a bad mfn bluesman. Get a front row seat to one of his shows and be amazed. People like to compare but I like oranges apples grapes and so on and I don't want them to remind me of each other. I always appreciate those who get an interview with him. The interviews keep getting more interesting as he continues to season as a bluesman
Love this! Joe’s a true original, and he just keeps bringing more to every performance. Blues has so many styles and personalities-just like the apples, oranges, and grapes you mentioned! Each artist adds their own flavor, and Joe definitely brings his strong personality into his music as well. 🎸
Where is the video? Would love to watch it!
ah, tomorrow...
Where is the video now?
@@walkersonn Thanks for your excitement! The video will be dropping this afternoon-stay tuned!
@@walkersonn Hi, the episode with Raye is out! 🎉 You can find it in this short or on our channel. Enjoy 🎧
7:27 Joseph Leonard Bonamassa is a beautiful name ♥
It really is a beautiful name! Joe pointed out that a long name can be tricky in showbiz-maybe it doesn’t fit well on a poster-but it’s definitely memorable and suits the legend he’s become in the blues world. 🎸
Thank you the workers behind the “scene” and the good people making possible the “spectacle” and great to be alive listening a special artist Joe Bonamassa. Thank you God!
We’re so glad you enjoyed the talk, and thank you for the appreciation! It’s an honor to help share Joe's music with everyone. Hope to see you around the channel-new episodes are coming every week!
Have been to five of Joe's concerts...if you have not seen him live you don't know what you're missing. Absolutely fabulous. Mountain Time at the Royal Albert is sheer heaven.
Wow, five concerts-that's dedication! Thanks for sharing 💙
Yeah. That intro especially.
Oh gawd..that middle aged guy wearing sunglasses indoors...sniffing the bands arse and being a bit of a tool..shitting on Bowie andcthe beatles..can you let the band speak? Hes that guy who has been there..done that , I guess this is your moment...but my god...stfu..to say the band has "a whole little thing of its own" is probably the worst sentence you can say "at" a band.so patronising...who let the drunk uncle interview a cool band
This boy can play!
"Absolutely! This guy’s talent is off the charts! 🎸"
Joe gives great interviews......down to earth, regular musician, lots of stories, keeps the momentum going, is honest to a fault...what's not to like? Appreciate your work thus far Joe. More, please sir....
Cheers to that! 🙌
Everyone complains about how much money you made.....but no one wants to do the work (to get to that place).
Music and showbiz are some of the toughest jobs out there, but the rewards are among the best! :) And the best part? You get to share those rewards with anyone who's ready to tune in! 🎧
God Bless you Joe, I appreciate all you do and I love your story, F*** the haters, they're just jealous, period. Enjoy the life and success. Make sure to let go of all the negativity that comes, be sure that doesn't poison the real you
Exactly! Keep enjoying the music! 💙
The dad texted his daughter and said the money is burried in the desert. I bet ‘the desert’ was a spot in the backyard that she called the desert when she was a little girl
❤❤❤❤
Glad you love the talk 🎧💙🎉
@dopeYEAHtalk loved 😍 ❤️ it thought it was great
And by the title, I thought I was going to here the advice part. But it’s a British guy obnoxious tonguing joe’s balls
👉8:55 "if you want something done, do it yourself" 9:03 "build your own castle" .. is what i got out of it 🔥🚬😬
