Maverick Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Black Country Communion are releasing their second album early next week, and have begun a tour of the U.S. and Europe. I think there is enough to talk about to pull them out of the Joe Bonamassa thread and give them one of their own. There are a pleasantly surprising number of Bonamassa fans here in TRF. And for those of you who would appreciate his playing more if it was more rock oriented, and less blues oriented, Black Country Communion is that vehicle. For those who may not know, Black Country Communion are: Glenn Hughes - Vocals, Bass Joe Bonamassa - Guitars, Vocals Derek Sherinian - Keyboards Jason Bonham - Drums Band Member Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metaldad Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I do like the new song but don't know much about the first album. Glenn has a fantastic voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 On Monday, September 20th, the night before their first album was released, they played a gig in London, and cameras were there! People who have seen them live always seem to say this song is the highlight of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only knock on it is Sherinian hardly gets used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm embarrassed to admit I'd never heard of Glenn Hughes until I started seeing the YouTube videos of him playing with Joe Bonamassa at the Guitar Center King of the Blues Finals in 2009.
