Most people don't even realize they're there half the time but you have to give SO MUCH credit to the Drummer's and the Bassist's that provide such an AWESOME Rhythm (I can never spell that word right) section for these guys to play and yet get none of the glory. They get no respect outside of the Blues world and THAT is a fact. I heard Bon Jovi make a shit remark once in a documentary "I'm not gonna go along with it because some Bass player's wife voted on it". Like the Bass is the shit-end of it all but trust me, a Blues guitarist has nothing but praise and respect for you guys. You are, TRULY, the "eggs in every omelette".
Josh Smith and Bonamassa are a awesome guitar duo. This shows how really great musicians listen to each other and they know how to compliment the situation. These guys are a perfect example of what a mature musician is supposed to be.
Fantastic.... must have watched it 50 times and am sure to watch it more. I love Bonamassa's compressed tone, (a few Albert Collins licks in there ) and then Josh releases his uncompressed super reverb tone with a ton of reverb, which to me is the holy grail of blues tones. Great playing by both and a pleasure to watch!!
Here is some more of Josh Smith~ th-cam.com/video/HJWVPRPJbiY/w-d-xo.html&feature=gp-n-y&google_comment_id=z13bfrmw4leedlvt022zzjswatqrgbiyj04
missmoke007 Thanks!
Josh Smith ladies and gentlemen!!!!!! Wow. I had heard him play before. But Damn.
Nice to hear both guitarists fill their space in the song. Josh is new for me. I know Joe could scorch tune that like it was a halibut in a skillet on a Friday.. but he gives generous space. That is a guy people can love. *Josh masters the dynamic with subtleties and accent chops in great places.* nice to see Peace and Love in action.
These guys are torch bearers for a generation, superb.
two great players! thanks for filming and sharing :)
Joe always delivers
Thanks for the video. Both great players .
Ahhh the irony of Joe NOT wearing sunglasses while in the actual sun.
mojojasons 😂😂😂
Josh Smith super chitarrista,,, ma sono tutti super io sono un fans agguerrito,,,bravi tutti ciao
Josh smiths tone 8.00 upwards. Made me fall of the chair a couple of times. What a player
He is incredible!! I am amazed each time I see him! :)
2:32 That bend by Smith. Majestic
Amazing recording!
Les Paul and Leo Fender never dreamed...
Cup of Joe in the AM 👍🏻👍🏻
Sweet playing all round! :)
Don't even think JB knew his hat blew off. May have been from the blues wind being created. This was my introduction to Josh. Damn. Now I have another blues god to follow.
Joe is a best 🤘
Bonamassa's solo sounds like... Hendrix at Woodstock, when he played red house. Do you agree?
Without the soul or different feel but yeah a lot of the licks...
what a band
A 59 Lp standard needs no presentation, but that tele sounded veeeery good too.
Hey, nice, Josh!
You won’t mind me pointing out that you are playing the black Chapin Guitar, built by Bill Chapin...
Great playing as usual - I want to sound like you when I grow up... Joe ain’t sleeping on the job, either.
Cheers, Pete.
Very poetic, Josh
People always trying to make a competition out of everything. Music is not a competition, just STFU and enjoy the music.
right there in the title ... jam .. not battle ... you are so right
Naive
Best Comment Award...Right on...
what a nice surprise!!!!
both of them are pretty "on" .. :)
Josh is such an under rated player !!!
Josh Smith is killer!
Thank u so much for not putting Joe "VS" Josh in the title...
Josh smith is amazing but damn joe makes that guitar scream 😀😀😀
Nice!!!!!!!
Joe is on firee
Josh plays fast: master of blues
Joe plays fast: OH MY GOD ALL HE DOES IS SHRED
It’s because josh has great blues feel. When he plays fast there is still musicality in it. He has learned from the masters of the past but still has his own musical personality and style. Joe has great facility, but you get sick of the parroted Eric Johnson licks, and I don’t hear the musicality.
@@johnbuell8035 And that there is subjective opinion, because I and clearly thousands upon thousands of others think Joe's blues feel is great. Here's an experiment for you: listen to a few long Joe solos and work out the percentage of time that he plays fast, "parroted Eric Johnson licks". I'm going to guess it'll be 10%, give or take. People just use his facility as a peg to hang their dislike from. Dislike away, but have a better excuse than "plays fast", because he most certainly doesn't only do that.
DaveDexterMusic Sorry, I just plain don’t like what I hear from Bonamassa. I won’t be analysing any long solos anytime soon. I’ve heard all I need to. Or want to. I don’t hear blues in it, I don’t hear feel and, most importantly, I don’t hear Joe Bonamassa - I hear his influences.
If you enjoy it, that’s fine. Knock yourself out. But there’s no point in trying to convince me. Nor any need. You don’t need my approval to enjoy it.
And I don’t need an excuse to dislike what I hear. It’s clearly a mistake to try to explain why to someone like you because you’re obviously a rabid fanboy who gets offended when someone doesn’t like their hero. You can think what you like about the music. Unlike you, I don’t care one way or the other what someone else thinks. You commented on people criticizing Bonamassa. I tried to explain why, because I fall in that camp. Clearly a mistake.
..ohh yess!! 👏🏻😊🎸
Dang, Josh sound so much like Albert King when he sings.. forgot who I was listening to for a sec..
fantatsic
that hat going off though
I so want a Joe Bonamassa vs John Mayer guitar battle. It would be pretty epic.
Me too
Smith cut Bonamassa here. He'd cut Mayer too.
Mayer would easily win.
+Jason F. Seriously, John Mayer is such a good player. That's why he has already gotten attention by guitar gods like BB King or Eric Clapton.
+Rick McCargar it's because Bonamassa played first, it's always like that, when you are the last to play , you sound better , probably because you raise you're playing to another level
Watchin' you baby
Make a fool out of me, everyday
Watchin' you baby
Make a fool out of me, everyday
I stand there and take it baby
I don't know no other way.
I just can't quit 'cha baby
Even though my friends all tell me so
I just can't quit 'cha baby
Even though my friends all tell me so
You go home and find yo'self a new baby
I don't care what you do
Once you I knew you loved me baby
You couldn't've been alone
I come home late from work
You throw your lovin' on me real strong
Times sure a' changed in a hurry
How was I so blind to see
Baby I'm bettin' with my money, you were makin' a fool out of me
*SOLO, Instrumental*.
Watchin' you baby
I guess some way, I always knew
Watchin' you baby
Some way, I always knew
You go on out, find yourself a new baby
I'm done bein' treated the way I do now.
Anyone know specifically what amp or amps Josh is using? Beautiful playing and sound.
josh play morgan amps. he used to play super reverb.
Looks like here he is plugged into a clean fender and a vox. From what I remember about his Morgan Amps he plays a fender style with a vox style (the Morgan ac40 I think) ... He likes that mix. If you search for gear interviews with him he breaks down his whole board and amp rig in one ...
👍👍👍
why do people want to specify a favorite musician as the the best because you happen to like him..Its Music dammit. Enjoy it or don't. It's like ice cream, either you like chocolate or you don't, it's only an opinion, there never was or is a tv show where they compete head to head, although that would be nice to see eh?
Joe who? Damn!
was this a handheld camera ? if so you did an amazing job !
Thanks! Yes it was and being that still on a rocking boat gives it that extra thrill! :)
haha I can only imagine ! thanks for the share :)
As far as "battles" go, I'd much prefer to see a collaboration between Joe B and John M, in the same way that Steve Lukather and Larry Carlton work. Those two guys couldn't have more different styles or approaches, and yet they make some the greatest music together. Joe and John would no doubt approach working together in that way. While you're at it, why not throw Kenny Wayne Sheppard into the mix.
Joe is more schooled in the British type blues. Josh a killer player is more in the Texas vein.
I did like Josh's choice of playing for this 12 bar more.
Josh plays a lot of jazz and you can hear it in the solo, but he started out playing like SRV, so you're going to hear that for sure.
I was standing right in front of Josh before this set started after chatting with him a bit. When he first plugged in through the Fender amp, he ripped off about 10 seconds of fusion scales reminiscent of John McLaughlin. That did it for me.
josh smith is blue s god
couldnt help but notice jbs left hand hurting
Joes alternate picking is rediculous. .superior to all
Josh is great but he plays more jazz then blues and i hate Telecasters they sound thin and twangy.Joe on the other has a great sound and his playing is amesome!I love it when he really goes for it and not holding back just burn brother!Less is not more.More is more.
I think Joe is progressively moving in a more stripped, pure blues approach, I emphasize progressively. Guys like Smith and Fletcher or JD Simo that he's played with in the past and currently have never really been about flash or guitar acrobatics so Smith IMO arguably has more style in his approach and that's illustrated here. With that said, as someone who didn't pay attention in the past, I'm really digging Joe's moves as of late.
Sad to see so many people feel the need to trash one artist in order to build up their personal favorite. My brother and I did that when we were 10 years old, then we grew up.
Victor M nah, that one's been settled for quite a while now and it's Shawn Lane.
Thom Vogan These two are both incredible!!
Thom Vogan...I CONCUR!!!
this the best comment in youtube
@@missmoke007thebestmusicvideos you have some killer videos 😎
Josh is just sooooo good. Crazy good.
They are both fantastic players. Josh play with 13 gauge strings...wow, coz that can hurt!
Lava Cable Josh is an awesome player!!
@@missmoke007thebestmusicvideos probably the best two blues players alive IMO.
That just about says it all ... just discovered him recently but he is my new favorite player and I love the be bop lines he invents.
After Josh's solo, at 10:13 someone in the crowd says: "..holy shit...". That says it all.
First saw Josh tear it up when he was a teen playing in a West Palm Beach Club. Josh Smith and the Frost. Ha, still have the hat! He just keeps getting better.
Hey Rick ! shit Josh is sick ! tears it up !
I have some early Josh from that period on my channel .
To think that we do not compare guitarist's skills is utopian. Most of us do it. Right or wrong it happens. I happen to really like Josh Smith at this time. 2 years ago, I was a Bonamassa nut. A year before that it was Robben Ford. Before that it was Larry Carlton. My point is that both are great players. Lets not diminish their skills by being too critical!
That volume fade solo from Bonamossa was crazy. Also, he coaxes a ton of tones from tweaking his volume knobs and pickup selector - so good.
However, I can't trust the blues from someone in a hoodie. Hah!
It's his comfort hoodie :)
Lol
Josh's playing is more jazzy, more tasty with his voicings whereas Joe is much more punctual and dynamic with a strong vocal quality to his playing...what a incredible mix !!
'Punctual'
LOL
Cameron Hawes Strat vs LP tone difference has a little to do with it
@@devinw5150 not a strat.
@@edwinpringle7342 I think, he just meant, humbuckers and singlecoils sounds so tasty in a jam, than if you have two guitarists both using humbuckers. They are made to compliment each other.
I CANT STAND people that trash other artists or say, this one was better than that one. I mean GARY MOORE was the shit and I don't think that GARY MOORE would appreciate me bringing up GARY MOORE while watching a Bonamassa GARY MOORE wouldn't have gone for that !!!
true ,but he would have smoked them both lol
A blues Jam without the guy who yells and says "yeahh" is fuckin nothing
8:50WTH? This man is the shit!!!!! that riff was explosive!!!!
Yes Indeed!! Josh is just a monster player!!!
Cold blooded every single one. Big shout out to the Jaydon Bean the drummer - perfect groovy pocket and responses to the solos. Not easy with such a slow shuffle. Incredible drumming and makes it look simple and easy. AND great sounding drums.
Stumbling through youtube looking for some great live music, I decide on a little John Scofield, which gets me to some Larry Carlton, which gets me to Robben Ford, which got me to some Bonamassa... which gets me to discovering this Josh Smith... great great player... Also, i love when you get two greats playing together - one with an LP and one with a Tele or Strat (or copy). Something about a Tele or Strat that when played great are just the bees knees. The tone he gets out of whatever that Tele copy is, is spectacular....
Missmoke, any woman that loves the blues as much as you seam to, is a MAJOR hottie! Cheers from Canada
Josh sort of reminds me of John Belushi when he was doing his Blues Brothers thing. lol
I love that Joe's amp is backwards because he loves so much damn volume.
More I see of Josh the more I appreciate his playing, absolutely first class!
Discovered Josh Smith because of this video (having Joe's name in the title helped). Holy vibrato batman .... wonderful phrasing and soulful playing. Me thinks I'll be listening to more of this guitar man. And no need for comparisons ... when you achieve this level of skill and musicianship it's a mute point.
I’ll be that guy and just go ahead and say it. Josh has better feel and is noticeably more authentic.
Josh is a more dynamic and soulful player than brother Joe. Still love Joe's playing.
Bluesy Woosey
The dynamic duo
His playing reminds me of SRV you know that texas style blues but reel clean to
Josh Smith = Woah.. he's damn good!
I was looking on this vid for Joes aperence and I found Josh!! What a great guitarrist and Singer!! Thanks, will listen more to his music.
Fen, If you liked Josh then check this one out!~th-cam.com/video/qEJoNVS0pCY/w-d-xo.html
Listen to Josh's Inception- best instrumental album of last decade.

Hi, thanks for the linked vid! (A few month later🤗) He is great! /Thomas
Bogdan Rygalski
Thanks I will!
There really is no versus here. Each player has his style. Each style is different and unique but both incredibly enjoyable. I am more familiar with Joe and have heard him really tear it up, a lot more than he did here. As a former professional musician (drummer), it is always enjoyable to jam with colleagues. It is not a competition simply because of a pure love of music. Musicians are truly connected to their soul. Now they need some Eric Czar bass playing mixed in. I miss him.
anyone know which amp is he using jere ? Is his morgan pr12 ?
it's not a blues jam without someone guying "oh YEAH" after the first big bend so everyone knows they appreciate it
Attention all Lids and Caps - Bodily harm or death is possible if you end up on Joe Bonamassa's head during a furious solo... Excercise caution!
Josh takes Joe to school me thinks. Josh's $1000 Tele sounds so much better than Joe's $300,000 dollar Les Paul. But I'm a Tele guy, so a little prejudice there.
My God what a jam...The Josh and Joe show. A total joy to watch. Thanks Linda.
Good God... Josh.... unbelievable!!! speechless.......
Joe gets a lot of criticism but his good moments are really good
That guy in the back though !
Cool vid! Thank you!
I think he may be playing the drums. He posed to be there.
Wow! Josh has so much soul in his voice! Just wow man!
And what about that drummer? Damn..
man that TONE that josh has. fkn smoothe as hell
Blame it on the Russians
Epic!!! I commend Joe for carrying in like a true professional.
Two monster..!! Jb play albert collins lick at 4.16
Love it when Josh hits to 2 open E's and goes into the flurry of notes at the end! Guy is great player..
This is one if maybe not the best music video i know. Great jam by great musicians and its authentic as it can be. Watching this over and over again. Josh and Joe rock the shit with so much flow. Way better then the eavening shows. Thanks for recording and posting this amazing one!!! Cheers!!
Thanks for posting.
Great playing!
This video proves why the debate about Gibson Vs Fender style guitars is stupid.
Outrageous!!! The Blues Cruise might become the modern day Woodstock.
Two of the best young(ish) blues guys side by side. Pretty awesome.
JB playing some Albert King licks there.......
Yess thats right
8:50 sealed the deal for me. Great stuff all around !
Thanks 007
Joe Bonamassa
Joe bit cliche to my taste but Josh is top 3 blues player in the world in my humble opinion.
Legend has it that there was no wind that day..
They are both good, but I get bored
I’d rather listen to Derek and The Dominoes
JB will be really good beyond 80, when his hands become slow :)
Bonmassa doesnt have that extra thing.. i think it feel? He can play as good as the best but i love blues player with "the feel".. make sense hah?
Joe plays with loads of feeling, just look at his face.
