Hughes, Bonamassa and Bonham - wow

You know that I've been blogging and tweeting about Joe Bonamassa and how I love his fusion of rock and blues.

Well both he and Glenn Hughes (the self proclaimed "Voice of Rock - though who would argue?) have themselves been tweeting about sessions with a new band having played together at the recent King of Blues Jam at the Guitar Centre in LA. Following that show, Joe and Glenn turned up again at a tribute to John Bonham playing alongside his son Jason.

Here's a little reminder of Glenns vocals






So it wasn't a big surprise to hear about the birth of a new project called "Black Country". The news broke on Joe's twitter feed and the details were in Guitar Noise on Friday.

Taking its name from the West Midlands area where Bonham and Hughes both come from its gonna be interesting to see what comes from this new outfit that has Jason Bonham on drums, Derek Sherinian on keyboards, Glenn Hughes on bass and vocals and Joe Bonamassa on guitar and vocals.
