@@Joey_McElroy Same amount of work. The talented always learn 100 times faster.. Talent is REAL.. You have to be BORN with it and FIND it. Sure you can practice hard and improve.. but the talented can master it with MUCH less TIME and WORK.

@@michaelvanbuskirk8845 One never knows these days. He's most likely largely unknown to the legions of millions of Swiftie fans. ...or Beyonce` fans....or...or....🤑
Daytona Beach Bike Week around 89 he was outside playing on the stage at the famous foot Bridge archway. Main st and Atlantic Ocean. Free. Caught my ear as I drove by on a loud bike. Just paid $500/ticket to see him on US 2023 tour.(seats were avail for far less money)
Went to see him in concert in San Antonio last year…….what a show , hell of a player. Will be going to see him anytime he is near, incredible player and awesome band.
If that wasn't a glimpse of greatness yet to come I don't know what else it could be. 😁 I got to see him 3 times before his career took off, and the price of tickets got ridiculous. I love how he just broke into it, and astounded the host. 😂
I finally got to see Joe live, in concert, on my 60th birthday last November. What an amazing performance. I just heard he’ll be returning again in November. Might just become my annual birthday present if he keeps that touring schedule. 😎🤞🏻
My brother was Joe's drummer when he was 12 yrs old in the "Smokin' Joe Band". I had the pleasure of videotaping all of the band's shows all over N.Y. State for Joe and his parents. B.B.King's security tried to confiscate my equiptment after the band performed, prior to B.B. King taking the stage. I declined them touching any of it. Tore down and locked it all in my trap cases and keep it at my feet in front of the stage during Mr. King's show. To this date, I have all of the originals. Out of respect to Joe, I've never duplicated them for anyone, nor marketed them. Despite Bloodline being heralded as Joe's first band, it wasn't.........
I had the privilege of seeing him playing inside a dive bar in Henrietta, NY. I've seen a lot of talented musicians playing. His performance was extraordinary.
@@filipe977 live on the TV in my house. Can even pause and go to a clean toilet. After the show i can just go to sleep right where I watched the show without having to go through terrible traffic. Sorry you were sayin?
@@_S._S._ I'm talking about sound, not what's around it. It seems like you focus more on the superfluous and miss what really matters. It must be sad to live like this.
@@filipe977 sound? I have a 3000W system at home. What more sound? I have invested over 20k in all my speaker systems. You pay 300 for a night. I have it all my life. Pity you.
Ich danke euch sooo sehr für diese Version. Jahrelang hab ich das Lied meinen Töchtern zum einschlafen vorgesungen... Heute bin ich 2-facher Opa und genieße es mit Eurer Interpretation!!!
Yeah, kind of made me sad. I've played all my life as well and you can tell Joe was a bit nervous. He had the talent but he kind of let his nerves get the best of him but once he clicked on that overdraft pedal, it was over with.
That is as good as it gets. Both Stevie Nicks and Lyndsey Buckingham attended the same high school as me. They were a couple years ahead but we all knew they were special. Boyfriend and girlfriend they played together here and there. If lucky, you were able to see /hear their performance You knew they were special. Nobody played guitar like Lyndsay. He was flat out great. Stevie Nicks had a different voice and it stood out from any others. I know things were rough with the relationship and a bit on/off, however; after years with Fleetwood Mac they definitely grew apart .I greatly appreciated their talent and the chance to often see them play. They always seemed like good people to me.
Maybe in your next life you can carry those skills.. I hoping for that too.. right now, i'm just enjoying what I can do so far. I'm 45.. playing since 15.. and nowhere near that skill. I realized it's really talent.. and can never be learned that fast with just hard work.
@@valcrist7428he worked very hard and played since age 4 and his family had musicians. Getting to this level is not very difficult. If you learn your scale and your favorite blues songs and play along to some 12 bar blues regularly you could get there in even one year… you’re not able to do this because you don’t know what to practice or don’t have the time or dedication to practice.
Joe lives and breathes it! He deserves respect! Not only a great player and historian but keeps his head straight! My favorite player and world’s number one guitar nerd!
I'm surprised that after all the Rickenbacker videos I've watched I've never ran across this. Most videos try to emulate what everyone thinks is the signature Ric tone. You showed how versatile the Ric can be. I saw the Smithereens and Jimmy Babjak played a '72 330 or 360 through a Marshall. What a great tone! I've heard metal from a Ric and it was pretty impressive as well. This is by far the best Ric demo that does demonstrates its true potential. Thanks for thinking outside the box and showing us that the imagination is unlimited.
Shit this is crazy! I mean for this age??? For every guitar player outside they know how fuckin difficult it is in the beginning but Joe Bonmassa is a natural talent for sure!
Great! This film is our inspiration. It shows how quickly time passes and passion remains. When we enter the JoeBonamassaTV channel we watch a guitar master ;-)
I first saw Joe that same year, 1990 at the Rock, Rhyme and Blues Festival in Hollywood, FL, He was in a band called Bloodline that included the kids of several rock icons.
About the year 2000 or thereabouts (EDIT: it was June of 2002), my young son & I flew from Tucson Arizona up to Denver Colorado (the venue was Fiddler’s Green in Englewood) to see Paul Rodgers with Bad Company and Lou Gramm with Foreigner in concert. The opening act was a young blues guitarist I’d never heard of before by the name of Joe Bonamassa. I thoroughly enjoyed the young Bonamassa & his blues guitar! He was impressive! We thoroughly enjoyed Bad Co & Foreigner too!
@@trustmetrusty3169 Indeed he is the Goat! Paul Rodgers is a masterclass vocalist. He’s second to none - a genuine LEGEND in the world of Rock & Roll! And at age 74 now in 2023, HE’S STILL GOT IT! In September of this year, Paul released his first studio album of original material in 24 years. His last studio production of original material was his album “ELECTRIC”, released back in 1999. His new album is called “MIDNIGHT ROSE” and its full of that signature Paul Rodgers soulfulness we all know and love. I bought it and added it to my Paul Rodgers/Free/Bad Company music library within days of its release. LOVE IT!
❤❤❤❤ LOVE HIS BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. WAS NOT FROM THAT ERA, SO RECENTLY DISCOVERED HIM AND LISTEN TO HIM EVERYDAY. BEING FROM THE U.S., GARY WAS NOT FEATURED ENOUGH HERE. SO HAPPY TO HAVE HIS MUSIC IN MY LIFE. HE CAN MAKE YOU HAPPY AND SAD AND EVEN CRYING. WOW. WOW. WOW. 😊😅❤😮😢😊😅😮😢😂❤
Saw Smokin' Joe a few times in the day. Video-recorded him under the tent in Rochester NY. His dad (later I realized) stood next to me and said, "He could be even better if he learned about phrasing."
Love to see this. What a talent JB is and was. This is from a show called Into the Night. I recognized Gregg Binkley playing the Barney Fife character right away (or at least I recognized his voice right away).
It's insane how there are flashes of his current tone coming through after he turns on his gain/boost pedal. And that sequence at 2:10 that he plays with the hybrid picking...the fact that he was doing it when he was 13 -- and he's still doing it now...ridiculous.
Proof that I believe some people come into this world with gifts from the other side. They are sent on a mission to help the rest of us navigate a difficult world with their talents.
He’s actually now a pro guitar player as an adult. Touring internationally and everything. There’s loads of videos of him on TH-cam if you check it out.
This video kind of makes me tear up. You can tell Joe was nervous and he was a young kid and he kind of lost it there for a second but he got it back. You can watch him keep wanting to go back and add some overdrive on his guitar.
And he's still retained his facial expressions and jaw movement!
What facial expressions lol
i suck at guitar, but I have the same thing going on....didnt realize it until my son started making fun of my facial movements.....lol..
I was thinking the same thing ..I was watching a recent Rick beato interview and still does them
And still does the hunched over "bald eagle" walk while he's playing. Love that! We love our Joey B!!
I was thinking the same thing!!! amazing to see.
Awesome guitar work and one hell of a Barney Fife impersonation!
I love how he doesn't even look like a kid, he just looks like a miniature version of himself lol.
As a fairly new guitarist of three years all I can say is Ho-Lee-Sheet!!!
Hey I know that guy, Ho is my neighbour
"Ho-Lee-Sheet!!!" ...is that Chinese toilet paper?
Yeah that's what 99% of us guitarist say....Dude was a savant.
@@CB-xr1eg No its the name of a chinese pilot that crashed. The other 3 pilots were named, sum ting wong, wi tu lo, and bang ding ow.
@@blastofo Sorry, jokes about plane crashes are not jokes. Try again.
When you can play a musical instrument like that at 13, its a God-given talent. Some people are born to play the guitar.
Or hard work, listen to his interviews where he talks about he didn’t do anything ever, never went outside, all he did was work his butt off to get that good. Seems a bit short changed to say it’s God given talent.

god given? or he just practiced a lot.
It's definitely both talent and practice, but the ceiling is a lot higher for those with talent
@@dogsarentdangerous1195 If it's hard work, then every old man like you is talented.. Guess what, you're not evet 10000th of theiir skill.
So calm and collected even at 13. Amazing.
Check out Taj Farrant. The kid was playing with Santana when he was 8 or 9.
Dude, he was not calm. He was nervous and off time lol. And missed a bunch of notes, but who woulnd't be!
@@whatevermusiciwant Dude maybe but pulled it off in a very calm manner. When I saw Johnny Lang open for Jeff Beck , he did well but he showed his nervousness.
He literally started so out of time with the band and started walking away out of nervousness and then started soloing by just shredding aimlessly
@@jimestooper1480 Well he pulled it off giving Joe more credit for facing the challenge regardless of what mistakes may have occurred.
He is 47 in 2024, I hope he kept his musical career up.

Me, too! At the Majestic.
I am just discovering his music. What a gifted talent he is. And an added joy to my life!
So cool! I saw Derek Trucks at a Blues Bar in Denver when he was 13…..accompanied by his parents. All faces melted!
Joe Bonamassa and Glenn Hughes are a match made in musical Heaven.
Even more so with Beth Hart!
Check out Glenns albums with John Norum, Gary Moore and Tony Iommi. Much better.
His best work imo, just being a sideman.
Glenn Hughes and Joe Bonnamass
@@Wasteoftime10 Check out Glenns 90s solo albums they are much better than everything!!
If that wasn't a glimpse of greatness yet to come I don't know what else it could be. 😁 I got to see him 3 times before his career took off, and the price of tickets got ridiculous. I love how he just broke into it, and astounded the host. 😂
I can now tell my wife that after 35 years of playing i am on par with Joe B. The 14 year old version.
I'm sure you are! But the the fact that my first impuls was "doubt it" ist amazing :D Cheers
Well that would be very good indeed. I'd love to play at 4 year old Joe level....
Well, at least you're better than the 13 yr old version here.
After 35-ish of playing, i'd fucking wish i was anywhere close to 14yo Joe B's level.
When I saw the picture of Joe Bonamassa, it reminded me of the actor Zachary Ty Bryan who played Brad Taylor in Home Improvement.
Unlike Zachary Ty Bryan, Joe's staying out of trouble and not losing the plot.
Joe's from Utica ny i met him at a club in Albany where I live, Joe's a great guy and great guitar player !
N.Y.Mills/ Yorkville to be specific, It was a little area all by itself-
I finally got to see Joe live, in concert, on my 60th birthday last November. What an amazing performance. I just heard he’ll be returning again in November. Might just become my annual birthday present if he keeps that touring schedule. 😎🤞🏻

@@TheTerracide They were all done in High 8mm format. I'm going to contact Joe through whatever means I can to send them to him..
What legal interest did BB King have with respect to your recordings? The music industry sucks, top to bottom.
I had the privilege of seeing him playing inside a dive bar in Henrietta, NY. I've seen a lot of talented musicians playing. His performance was extraordinary.
Cost you about three hundred bucks to see him do that now...Such a success and master of his instrument.

Walks over and kicks on that pedal
Yeah I remember this! I'm 61 and thank you. Gonna go find live version of "Sloe Gin" BluesFan
nice to see new up and coming talent ....kid has potential
Enjoyed watching him live in show last year
I hope Joe still has that guitar…if not, he needs to go on a search for it!

I love Derek Trucks playing, hope to catch that band next time they come through town.
Damn that kid is good! Something tells me he has a bright future in the music biz...
The Don Knotts impersonator is pretty good too
Love to see this. What a talent JB is and was. This is from a show called Into the Night. I recognized Gregg Binkley playing the Barney Fife character right away (or at least I recognized his voice right away).
The funny thing is that the band actually come in on the wrong beat lol.
They were running , to catch up with a jet plane. 😁✌🖖
he's got such an SVR vibe on him that it makes me wanna cry
lmao. Joe Bonamassa is amazing. One of the best.
So cool such an amazing musician!
1:13 I guess the conductor was just amazed by Joe and counted in wrong and then the band keeps rushing because they probably don't hear him.. 😂🥳
FYI the “conductor” is none other than Billy Vera as he along with his band (The Beaters) were the house band.
Born with that talent. God given.

At 13, he was a BluesBOY.
Una maravilla que destreza un pequeño gran maestro
I agree. The kids got potential.
Great to see and listen to, and he's still performing.
Awesome 😎👍
My favorite living blues guitarist. Smokin Joe is the real deal.
Anyone that thinks they can bypass the practice to become spectacular. . . 😢 Ain’t gonna happen !
And anyone who thinks they can get there without talent too is kidding themselves .
This video kind of makes me tear up. You can tell Joe was nervous and he was a young kid and he kind of lost it there for a second but he got it back. You can watch him keep wanting to go back and add some overdrive on his guitar.
