Blues Deluxe Tablature: A Masterclass in Authenticity

Twenty years have passed since Joe Bonamassa's iconic album 'Blues Deluxe' first hit the music scene, celebrating what the US government had declared as 'the year of the blues.' Now, Bonamassa returns to his roots with the highly-anticipated 'Blues Deluxe Vol. 2,' a new studio album that pays tribute to the genre's rich legacy.

The new album features two original compositions and eight fresh covers of some of the most influential names in blues history. From Bobby 'Blue' Bland and Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac to Albert King, Bonamassa has curated an impressive selection of songs that have shaped his own artistic journey. By revisiting these classics, Bonamassa is not only honoring their memory but also injecting new life into the timeless tracks that have informed his music.

Blues Deluxe Vol. 2 marks a triumphant return for Bonamassa to his blues roots, showcasing his remarkable musicianship and soulful vocals. As Classic Rock Magazine's Louder Sound notes, 'The world's busiest bluesman's singing is better than ever, and he still turns in a foot-stomping blues riff better than most.' Indeed, Bonamassa has cemented his status as a modern-day king of the blues.

In addition to the new album, J&R Adventures will also be releasing a remastered version of the original 'Blues Deluxe' on October 6th. This special edition will be released alongside its predecessor, offering fans an opportunity to revisit Bonamassa's groundbreaking work from two decades ago.

With Blues Deluxe Vol. 2, Joe Bonamassa has once again raised the bar for blues music, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to authenticity and his ability to breathe new life into timeless classics. Whether you're a longtime fan or just discovering Bonamassa's music, this album is an essential listen for anyone who loves the blues.
