Radio Paradise (mobile)

There's a slow train coming
It's movin' on down the line
Steel wheels on iron rails
Tonight I'm fixin' to die
Woo, I hope you don't mind pretty mama
Woo-hoo, hope you don't mind if I go
'Cause when the steam from the slow train rises
I ain't gonna see you anymore
There's a slow train coming
Coming right on time
Smokestacks and bottle lightning
This jumper on the line
Woo, I can't do without it anymore pretty mama
Yes, I can't do it without it anymore
'Cause when the steam from the slow train rises
I ain't gonna see you anymore
There's a slow train coming
To march us home from war
With my leather boots and my haversack
Sure can take it no more
Woo, I cried for her baby when I saw you there
Woo-hoo, I cried for her just the same
'Cause when the steam from the slow train rises
I'm gonna cry for you just the same
Well there's a slow train coming
Carrying the mighty worker hordes
Eighteen days in the cotton field
Enough to put a man out of coup d'amour
Woo, It's time to move on pretty mama
Woo-hoo, Yes it's time to move on as I go
As the steam from my slow train rises
It's time for me to get on board

I love it when people proclaim "the best guitarist ever!" Really gets the voices flowing. I'd match Joe against any blues guitarist around today. But when you talk about the best guitar player EVER...it's all a matter of taste. You really can't compare someone like oh, say Mark Knopfler or Lindsey Buckingham with guys like Robin Trower and the Edge. Like apples to crabapples. However, when talking about the very best, these names have to be on the list for consideration: BB King Eric Clapton Jimmy Page Jeff Beck Jimi Steve Howe Steve Hackett Gilmour Then there are what I like to call "the technicians" - Joe Satriani, Tom Morello, Ivan Smirnov, Steve Vai, etc. With the difference in style, genre and type, I don't think you can ever call a single guitar player the best ever... "the technicians" Yes, Until I found the right word to describe Yngwie Malmsteen and co. [ Reply ]
ScottD Jun 13, 2013 - 09:57	I love Joe, but I'd also like to hear a bit of dirtier blues, like say the type played by Doyle Bramhall lll. He has to rank right up there as well. [ Reply ]
Poacher Jun 13, 2013 - 09:52	I have this cd and this track came up recently on my hi-fi at home on a random playlist. I have to say, I cranked it up to indecent levels to the point where Mrs Poacher thought I was going to break the windows. It was worth it. 10 [ Reply ]

Sjaaks May 15, 2013 - 01:50	Seeing all the Robin Trower comparisons here made me reply: I've seen both of these guys live and technically and in terms of showmanship Robin doesn't even come close to Joe, not by a long shot. From a guitarist's perspective, Robin needs loads of effect pedals and enhancements to impress and reach his sound as where Joe can blow you away with an unplugged acoustic guitar if he wants to. It's all related to taste, i know, but in terms of skills i'd say it's not fair to compare Robin and Joe. This song, 8 --> 8 [ Reply ]
Isabeau May 11, 2013 - 19:03	Don't care what anyone sez, this guy's riffs remind me of ... Robin Trower. An I love it all! [ Reply ]

As for blues originality, virtually all blues is 100% derivative. What's the beef... you either like the blues or you don't. Best guitar player ever? Ha. He very well may be hot and terrific to see live, but in the same league as Hendrix and Jeff Beck? Not hardly. Maybe Sonny waybackwhen, but last week he was a reeeefined slide guitar God. [ Reply ]

Pitjes Dec 22, 2012 - 00:42	Head bangers banquet- Robin Trower is clapping hands, friendly, and Duane Alman rolls in his grave, but, I can't helpmyself from picking the keys while playing air-guitar!! [ Reply ]
