JOE BONAMASSA’S MILESTONE PERFORMANCE ‘LIVE AT RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL’ HAS BEEN RELEASED ON OCTOBER 2, 2015.
In January 2015, Bonamassa took The Great Stage at Radio City for the first time in his career for a sold-out, two-night run that he called “a dream come true” and “one of the most incredible experiences of my life.” These shows were the culmination and the finale of Bonamassa’s special half acoustic/half electric tour, which he showcased around the world for the past year and half.
The first set has Bonamassa playing alongside the acoustic band “The Huckleberries” from his #1 Billboard CD/DVD An Acoustic Evening At The Vienna Opera House (Irish fiddler Gerry O’Connor, niyckelharpa and mandola master Mats Wester, keyboardist Reese Wynans, and percussionist Lenny Castro). He then shifts into electric mode for the second set with his regular touring band (bassist Carmine Rojas, keyboardist Reese Wynans, drummer Tal Bergman, trumpeter Lee Thornburg, trombonist Nick Lane, and saxophonist Paulie Cerra).
Elmore Magazine praised the performance as “musically enrapturing and visually stunning” and called the overall evening “outstanding.”
The CD features 13 songs – two brand new songs and seven that have never been recorded live. The DVD features 15 tracks alongside a 45-minute bonus featurette, which includes behind-the-scenes, backstage, and dressing room footage, and a sneak peak into Bonamassa’s childhood home and musical heritage.
