Joe has been a legend since he was a kid.....he still is a kid in my eyes. To find a lifelong passion when so young was a gift to us all and to him.. I envy that...love hearing him talk..so focused. XOX

Joe brings up a great point, about how music shop owners and employees can have a big impact on young kids. Kudos to Norm for investing in our youth.

Lets not lose sight that money is Normans god, nothing else. He is like a sleazy used car salesman.

I'm not a huge fan of Joe's music. His love of guitar is infectious but the fact he will pay more so he doesn't screw anyone over is a quality that is forgotten. True human!

I've watched so many videos with Norm and Joe that I feel like I know them. I'm a big fan of both of you! Thanks for the video!

I love Joe's playing & singing. It's crazy to think how Joe B., Josh Smith, & Derek Trucks are all pretty close to the same age & they are all 3 masters at what they do.

Keep it coming guys, love all the story telling.

As someone who loves to educate people about the things, I am passionate about, so does Joe Bonamassa… He’s a gem of a historian, and a teacher of music and guitar paraphernalia… And a heck of a humble and nice guy… Anyone who knows him would tell you that… Thanks, Joe. Thanks, Norm for educating and enlightening all of us! Dr. Renae 😊

I agree with Norm. Joe live is mind blowing.

I remember when I went to the Gibson Garage, and they let me play a custom shop Les Paul. The same day my dad took me to Arnold's in Nashville for lunch. Afterwards I noticed Carter's music and i grabbed a $3000 mandolin off the wall and played it. By the way, we drove 8 hours in his GMC truck from Louisiana to get there, I am from California.

Enjoyed this thanks Norm and to the performers

The Man! He is the Greatest! Everytime! Blessings all! Merry Christmas!

legends are born. Any time a guitar "player"(not collector) tells you he is a legend, he believes the crap that someone else comes up with. Freddie King was/is a legend. Although, he never went around bragging about it.

Saw Joe at the Chicago Theater a few years back, he had the flu but still rocked the house. He was in a flop sweat all night but never missed a beat.

Love these AGN podcasts.

I don’t think Norms statement was out of line. Joe’s a legend.

yeah there's the old guys like page, clapton, and the dead ones like SRV and bloomfield but i will say joe could be one of the greatest blues/british blues guys out there right now.. i don't know if i'd quite throw out the "legend" label out there yet.... and don't get the idea that i don't like joe. i love joe... but i'm not sure he's changed things enough to be called a legend.

Thanks Pat! For giving this show some real cred. These other guys…. Who’s the computer geek in the ball cap?

Joe Bonamassa is A LEGEND !

Love these!

Joe’s the best !

Joe talked about playing for 40 people. I was one of the 40 at the Tractor Tavern in Ballard , WA, the night my boss gave Joe his first Gigliotti Tele .... that place was/is an armpit.

Whole new respect

I agree 100% he is the best rock blues guitarist to ever live

Joe Bonamassa...What Can I Say...Was Introduced To Joe..By Recieving His First Album From A Radio Station In K.C.A New Day Yesterday...First Saw Him Live Ticket Was 8 Dollars...In K.C. At A Blues Club On Main In K.C....Since Seen Him Live A Total Of Eight Times...K.C. Vegas..Love Me Some JOE...

question regarding sparkle finished Fenders. If a 1960 Fender when back to Fender during 1960 for a sparkle finish...is it a very old refin?

jeff healey played a squier,one of my favorites.

Life isn't always pretty but be thankful for what we have

To Joe, Nothing is possible without the Father. Somehow I think you might know this and Norm if my gut is correct. Good show and thanks, 12 boar.

Who was the guy in the room with them who was a fan of Joe who won the blues contest I didn't catch his name?✌

I agree he's maybe the greatest blues rock guitarist but it's hard to say that when you don't know, there might be someone better I've never heard before.

Just play it Joe!...it's a freaking guitar!

4 one hour sets Fri and Sat night. 50 songs 2-3 rotated out per week. $100 per night per band member. Fun tho. I don't miss toting gear.

Mark Nairn he was still replaced by Derek Trucks, that spot was filled😂 Seriously though, ABB may be the best band ever, they really never had a bad lineup besides some time in the 80s. To go from Jack to Derek is just ridiculous, some of the best musicians to ever live. Long live the Allman Brothers.

Joe is just so Cool

❤

I'm going to venture a guess that Norm might be a 'friend of Bill's' because that Midnight Mission is associated with a lot of volunteers and guests from that community.

Spot was his best sounding and my favorite is his Les Pauls. The tone on British Invasion was unreal. I was so disappointed when he sold it.

He saved bluesrock hands down

Norm, how 'bout Vince Gill and Joe Bonamasa on the same show?

♥️😎👍♥️

So I guess Jack Pierson was playing Vee-Bop...

Joe is so right about learning to play with a band, there is a young guy who has a fairly popular youtube channel who is a great home player has awesome skills, when he gets with his band wow its a train wreck. his drummer and bass player are not so great and it's screwing this kids timing and he is not learning the fine arts of performing, its really holding him back.

Danny Elam yes. It’s from the All Guitar Network. Couple months old.

I like Marcus King & his band a great deal, but I just can't see major success for them for afew years yet anyway. Hopefully I will be wrong. I enjoyed everything except the mention of Sambora. That man has some massive unresolved issues that have consequences.

No joe, you're pretty comfortable

The best ever he said are you fucking deaf yeah hes great but the best ! I aint even gunna start listing the easly 20 dudes that are better than joe i love his playin but he not even in the top 25

What A TREAT

Alip Ba Ta is the best

Norm interviewing his pension fund manager . Joes addiction has to be one of the most expensive ever . Fair play to him for looking awkward when Norm introduces him . Nick is kinda annoying in this video -sorry .

I'm so please Norm said that I'm sooooo sick of people saying the greatest ever was Hendrix or that guy, this guy. Todays generation play guitar better than ever before. Nothing to take away from the early great but the mantal has been past and our hope is always to a better faster runner.

There are so many young players that are fantastic...but a whole lot of them are technique/theory driven, IMHO, instead of soul-driven...and too many shredders. But I agree with you concerning the "who's greatest ever" thing.

Unfortunately guitar isn’t about who’s the fastest or who gets to the finish line first, it’s about putting out quality music. Joe is a great player, one of the best around, but he could live till he’s 300 years old and still wouldn’t produce the number of classic tracks that a guy like Jimi did. Add to that the fact that Jimi made all of that music in about a 4 year span makes it even more remarkable. Again taking nothing away from Joe as he is an amazing guitarist, probably one of the most technically proficient of all time when it comes to blues/rock.

Why does the one who is NOT famous chime in and run his damn trap all the time?!?!?
