Review

Despite having achieved considerable commercial success, the name of Joe Bonamassa is still relatively unknown outside of guitar aficionados and a certain class of blues and rock fans. Bonamassa's background and discography are extremely varied and incredibly impressive, including such feats as opening for B.B. King when Bonamassa was all of 12, and later forming a band with the sons of legends Miles Davis and Robby Krieger. Bonamassa's solo career has seen number one charting albums in the Blues category and collaborations with any number of rock and blues legends. Bonamassa is a New York native whose parents owned a guitar store, perhaps helping him to absorb the instrument's vocabulary by something akin to osmosis. He's an unlikely superstar, not especially charismatic and fairly low key in his personality and stage presence, but once his fingers hit the strings, there's no mistaking the incredible virtuosity that Bonamassa has at his beck and call. While this 2011 Beacon Theater performance in New York City sticks fairly closely to a general blues feeling, traces of flat out rock and incipient flowerings of jazz and pop also populate Bonamassa's diverse vocabulary. This is a fairly no frills concert that concentrates on the music rather than stagecraft, and it proves that actual musical talent can sometimes, against considerable odds, outweigh the prevalence of manufactured acts who look good but have no facility with any instrument and who require autotuning to even begin to sound professional vocally. The audience here is rapt and excited to see Bonamassa up close and personal, and this concert finds him in fine form both musically as well as in some nice, albeit brief, interchanges with the assembled masses.
