New York guitar phenom walks tall in the blues tradition with this third album, jettisoning fiery riffs inspired by John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, Elmore James, and Albert Collins into the future with furious playing, a hard-rock sensibility, and a grizzled voice that owes a debt to Gregg Allman. Equally inspired by the Delta blues and the mid-'60s British blues boom, the young firebrand--who titled this CD after a Rod Stewart song penned while in the Jeff Beck Group--is able to fuse those two schools together, creating edgy blues rock. --Jaan Uhelszki

Summary: Simmer down
Comment: This phenom is getting major hype, huge kudos from newbies, some of it merited. He's got guitar chops, but is not original, and still has absolutely nothing on the generations of great blues guitar masters before him, whose stuff he's cobbled together into a slick commercial sound. Take the title track: Jeff Beck+ Stevie Ray Vaughan+ Buddy Guy+shreddy 80s/90s style is the end result, and you may still wind up thinking, hm, I've still heard better, more soulful, more honest. Go listen to some Guitar Slim, Roy Buchanan, Mike Bloomfield, Elmore James, the Kings, Icepick, etc. etc.

Summary: Pandora Picked it Right!
Comment: Pandora picked it right! Now that I have DSL I can listen to Pandora internet radio at home, and my favorite "channel" is my SRV one. All Blues, all the time. Up comes Joe Bonamassa's "Blues Deluxe" album, and I'd never heard him before. Made me come to a complete STOP and go into a trance. This guy really has it. I wish I could go to a live concert with him and Stevie Ray Vaughn - it would be the ultimate blues show.
Had to come out of my trance just to do this review! SOLD!

Summary: Great!
Comment: I'm gonna have to go back and listen to Jeff Beck's version of "Blues Deluxe," because it's rivaled by a damned fine rendition on this album! Hell, this whole album is great! A lot of killer electric blues, different styles of songs...it just never gets boring. Joe Bonamassa plays with a lot of grit and groove, and it makes the music very enjoyable and a helluva lot of fun to listen to. Good stuff!
Customer Rating:
Summary: studio practiced
Comment: I just love listening to Joe Bonamassa on my satellite radio, so I got this one, after checking the various reviews.
Although I still think he is the greatest, this album is a bit stiffer, it is very "studio"... too practiced... but still a high quality album, just that I prefer the radio stuff.

Summary: A Modern Classic
Comment: Joe Bonamassa is one of the premiere blues guitarists of our time. His refinement of the genre is reflected in Blues Deluxe through sophisticated, extended soliloquies that enchant the listener and leave one craving more. Blues Deluxe is a conversation stopper and Bonamassa's greatest achievement so far. It is destined to become a classic. This CD should appeal to all levels of blues listeners.
