Following the success of his “Sloe Gin” and “Live From Nowhere In Particular” albums Joe Bonamassa returned to the studio with producer Kevin Shirley and came up with another exciting quality mixture of originals and covers in the shape of “The Ballad of John Henry”.

Dirty, gritty and bluesy, but polished where necessarry and with a great overall feeling of class and quality would be the best description I could give in one line.

Talking in more depth though opening track and title cut ‘The Ballad of John Henry’ has a great driving rhythm with a strutting stomping riff and an instantly singable vocal melody. The quieter part to the verse helps to accentuate the power of the chorus and adds to the overall quality of the track. This is rock blues crossover composing at its best. Despite being the subject of a million blues related tracks though this has a far more hard rock feel about it and the part around the two and a three quarter minute mark is straight from the Led Zeppelin songwriting book. It is certainly my favourite track from the album and for me it is one of the best tracks he has ever recorded.
