One of my buddies is a huge blues guy and im a total metalhead. He took me to see Joe B at the Greek Theater in LA and it was incredible. The guy is a wizard…a true guitar hero. Really opened my eyes to an entire world of players that I was ignoring.

I love how Joe just CASUALY has some of the best guitar tone I've ever heard in my life for this chat with Rick.

[bfishryuhayabusa]

I highly recommend learning Peter Green's solo from "Black Magic Woman". Incredible note choices and phrasing. And I personally really enjoy playing it.

Joe just knows. Its not just technique, its not just feel, but he just knows. This stuff really means something to him.

[DanielVerberne]

I know Rick has been doing this for years and years, but it certainly seems to me as an outsider that his ability to attract headline artists has happened quite quickly. Very impressive.

[patgilliam]

Not only is his proficiency at his instrument incredible but his knowledge is Outstanding. Plus you know your at the top when Reese Wynans plays in your band.

The Thrill is Gone changed my life when I was popping my dads CDs into my first player when I was 10 and had no CDs of my own yet. The epitome of style and taste.

[robmarchese]

Love the shout out to Paul Kossoff, who was a phenomenal player! Besides Joe's mammoth talent, his respect for his predecessors is unparalleled.

[buckbumble]

The fact that he kept a straight face during Scuttle Buttlin’ makes you appreciate how effortless that is for Joe 😂

[FerG-]

These guys are true fans of music and guitars. The details regarding which tone, switch, pickups, amp were using it's just amazing. Normal musicians or hobbyists can't get that deep.

[dustinwitty]

Kossoff was unbelievable. Joe mentioned Andy Frasier as well. One of the best bass players there was.

[amjrpain]

Joe is a phenomenal ambassador of blues guitar and music! He's infectious, and I love him! 😎👍

[quietinterlude]

Im surpised he didnt mention Peter Green. Listen to jumpin at shadows live in Boston, totally unique tone, feel, and vibrato

[markburnham]

I can listen to Joe talking guitars and tones all day long, and I do.

[searefessahaye]

thank your Rick for inviting Joe. This was highly entertaining and refreshing to watch

[cbcacbca]

That sound he gets when he switches to the neck pickup is glorious.

[hkguitar]

Thank You Rick, your content/guests are simply amazing.

[stevekarr]

I love how Joe grunts between guitar phrases. It goes like this...then...and. Excellent!

[rightthen.]

I love Paul Kossof’s tone on ‘come together in the morning’ so haunting, amazing!
