Joe Bonamassa delivers a quadruple blues bang

Not fearing of a market overload, Joe Bonamassa is to end this year with four new CD/DVD sets called “Tour de Force – Live In London.” Their title reflect on the no mean feat the guitarist undertook in March 2013, when he spent four nights in four different venues delivering goodies in different formats, each of these now making a separate release available for pre-order and out on October 22. Looks like a must but costs deep in the purse… But when it comes to Christmas time, the collection can make a nice present.
