What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested?

That’s the cover of the re-issued Dog My Cat. The original version had a different artwork.

Did you end up getting his latest which he released under another name Steve?

ZZ Top - Tres Hombres

My introduction to the gentle and soothing tones :wink: of ZZ Top plopped through the letterbox today.

This is a 2006/2005 remaster with three live tracks stuck on the and, and flippin’ heck, what a belter this is.

Thanks to those on here who suggested how I might get acquainted with these gentlemen. I shall certainly be expanding my collection.

Fancy some hard-hitting blues with a sense of humour, then you could do worse than giving this a go.

I love it!

A number of albums arrived today – ripping them as ‘we speak’ - first one – probably an overlap with others I already have, but hey…

Will Hoge - My American Dream - Vinyl

Stunning country rock album, Hoge’s angry about the state of America, and his passion turns into some of the best and most powerful new music I’ve heard in years.

Joe Bonamassa & Mahalia Barnes - Riding With The Kings.

Here’s a studio session bonus feature from Joe’s “Live at the Greek Theatre” Blu-ray.

I posted this before, on the old forum, but it’s worth flagging it up again just to hear Mahalia Barnes … what a powerhouse voice!

Apparently that was the song that influenced this…

Or change your surname to Beard to match the not-as-hirsute-chin drummer Frank Beard, you could stay NigelB.

Hi Nigel,

Don’t know whether you’re into Joe Bonamassa, but he’s always at his best when doing it live in front of an audience, and some of his concert albums and Blu-rays are just stunning.

This particular track is included as an extra on “Live at the Greek”, during his “Three Kings” tour, which pays tribute to the music of three of his heroes, i.e. B.B., Albert, and Freddie King.

Mahalia Barnes was best known in her native Australia, but since joining Joe’s band, her voice is finally getting some well deserved recognition…a modern day Aretha, almost, IMHO.

Prompted by the post from Steve_S and streamed from my NAS, this live album (“Road Ragas”) is probably my favourite Harry Manx album.

As Steve has pointed out, someone who deserves a much wider audience - just an infectious blend of Blues and Indian music.
