Great talent.  The acoustic concert at the Vienna Opera House from last year is the absolute best to showcase that talent!  Highly recommend it.

I like this guy's style. I will be investigating more of his stuff through Grooveshark.com

After watching Joe play over the weekend I am convinced he can play ANYTHING.

He was brilliant!

Classic fuzzy guitar; the definitive way to play this type of whiplash blues.

I had one. At 18, after being laid up in bed for months after a major leg operation. I turned green and almost fainted when I did indeed pass it. Next time, just shoot me.
 
 
My great-great grandfather had a run of them. It got to the point that he couldn't take the pain any longer and did indeed put a bullet in his head. 

But I suspect that the tune ain't about kidney stones, kingart.  

I know Joe Bonamassa isn't everyone's cuppa but I'm not sure I'd prefer Robert Johnson's ancient recording over this version.

Would be nice to see Warren and JB standing in with DB and what's left of the ABB.

I might be willing to cut off some body parts to see that.

You're not alone- 2 RJ covers in a row, and it doesn't matter how good they are.

Here's what happens .. you go to the doc, he has you sit up and he uses a knuckle to push your back over a kidney.  You scream and then faint.  He prescribes drugs and lots of water and gives you a sieve to catch what comes out.  You go home, pee a lot and eventually the stones go away; then you wait, upon every single twinge from your back, asking yourself "Oh God Help me, it's another Stone".  You spend the rest of the your life saying "Oooooo when you hear me hollering .. please let it passssssss!".

He sounds like a mountainman in comparison to the fine music of

"DOWN LIKE SILVER" (for example)

not just a little better. Mellencamp's is great, this one is pretentious.

I like how it hearkens back to some Savoy Brown-type singing, with some righteously raucous guitar jamming in there...sounds great and gets things moving on a chilly morning!

Man, some of you are so jaded.
Have you seen the Joe Bonamassa's Royal Albert Hall concert on Palladia?
He's a fucking badass.

Taking the title and the strain in his voice I'm thinking "Stones in my Passway" is code for renal calculus.

Wait this really is about kidney stones?!? Awesome!

Yep. And a little of In My Time of Dying.  By the way, Jimmy Page called, he wants his guitar back.
