I like Matt, he's a great player and is very down to earth. His tone on the new album is just lovely. Sounds like he's got a kicking horn section too! I know he gets a lot of exposure by the guitar mags..but that's not a crime and if it helps boost his low-profile career then good on him.
@mudslide73 kindly got me a ticket and took me to see him in Lichfield a year or so ago and he was great.
Thanks for the heads up
I'm off to buy myself a copy now
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I just find that when I buy a blues album I end up never really playing it.
I might give this a try though as everyone seems to rate it highly.
Can still feel the chill down my back from the last track. Masterful stuff!
Very much enjoying this. He sounds like he's clicked into another gear... I liked his stuff before too.
Overall, very refreshing album!
I'm really pleased he has a Bass player now, using bass pedals was a big compromise, and the songs have much more life
I think he sounds more like everyone else than he used to on this one, I don't know if that's intentional, but he sounds a bit more blues/rock, whereas I think he sounded more blues with jazz inflections before - which I preferred.
Lovely though it sounds, fewer tracks with the swirly organ sounds would break up the album a little
So - it sounds very good, just wondering if he's moving towards the Bonnamassa audience
Just listened to it again, now I understand why I was surprised when he supported Joe Satriani, when he was playing much rockier than usual - I thought it was just for that crowd, more Bonamassa and sometimes SRV ish
I took my mate to see him after the last album 2-3 years ago, and could not believe that he was not amazed, I think for some, the jazzy touches are unwelcome, perhaps this album aims to avoid that problem
