love this guy !! would be a great opening act for the 50th stones tour !!

Saw Bonamassa at the House of Blues several years ago.

I'd love to see him again !

Not a fan of his solo stuff, but the Black Country Communion album was great

Great live band too

Just watched him on Guitar sessions? Holy Shit he can play!

The greatest living guitarist. Saw him as a 12 year old opening for BB King many years ago. I have tix for him in Toronto. You will leave the show speechless. This man has a gift!

HE'S TOURING NOW .><

Too smooth. Not for me.

Wish I had seen him a few years ago when he played the music pubs and clubs here in U.K. Now he plays places like Shepheards Bush Empire and HMV Apollo in London.Great guitarist.

I love him and his real ugly guitar...

Watched the "Live at Royal Albert Hall" special, good show!

Not crazy about his vocals though. Excellent guitar player.

We're big fans of him ever since he opened for Steve Winwood two years ago at a German "tent festival" ...

My wife instantly fell in love with his playing - she said: he's a virtuoso!

One of the good things about him: He's not too famous so he often plays in Europe venues with less than 2000 people - standing. So even for us older people (We are both over 65!) there is a very good chance to get up near the stage, so you can see him from five meters "treating" his guitar ...

One very funny thing happened last year (or was it 2009 ?) in Mannheim, Germany. He announced that it was his 20th year playing now - and I shouted something, so he turned in my direction and said: I'm not that old yet ...

He was about 32 at that time ...

He's touring the whole world - so wherever you live, there's a good chance to go to one of his concerts - you really should go!

i'm a fan. but getting tired of the eric johnson run's.

Also a fan. Great guitar player with a lot of feeling.

I really live his covers of Rory Gallagher's "Cradle Rock" and "A New Day Yesterday" by Jethro Tull.

"Dirt in my Pocket" played at full crank is a powerhouse blast.

'The Ballad of John Henry'was my album of 2009. Some loose Stones connection on it with Blondie Chaplin, Anton Fig and Carmine Rojas guesting.

Pff, boring.

Great guitarist, very friendly and focused. Had chats with him before and he's one of the most focused and "hands on" in his career then I've seen in a long time. Last time I saw him he was on his own website checking out the photos, etc that fans posted.

A tasteful and complete guitarist. There is nothing he can't do. Saw him live a few times already. Sat on the edge my seat in aww.

Funnily enough I got 3 CDs out of the library (2 solo) and I'm playing my way through them. Very impressed so far - in fact I've just ordered his new album.

Pick up Live From Nowhere in Particular and Ballad Of John Henry. You'll love them both. Listen to the lead in "Happier Times" from Ballad Of John Henry. It will almost bring you to tears it's that emotional.

Saw him last year in London. Great guitar player but I did not became his devoted fan.

I've got John Henry and it is excellent. To show my age – he reminds of early Robin Trower.

did not like the whole of his new album Dust Bowl.
love the song Tenesse Plates with John Hiatt.
still.. a good musician
bye jeroen

I saw him on March 3rd.

Blew me away!

But like Jeff Beck, other than the incredible guitar skill, it's lacking in any real wide appeal.

Going to see Jeff Beck next month.
