Black Country Communion

[Iggy]

I am hoping to get tickets Saturday, BCC aren't playing Cardiff, that's
annoying, as we have venues-a-plenty for name bands. :mad
I guess it's a management thing though, not the band.

I couldn't make up my mind where to post. There are quite a few BCC, Joe Bonamassa and associated threads. They overlap because the Live album contains tracks from BCC, BCC 2 and Joe Bonamassa albums.

New Black Country single from the upcoming album Afterglow.

^^not too shabby.

When is Afterglow suppose to be released?

Afterglow is a great track and it is a tragedy that this band may have to fold because of Joe Bonamassa's solo commitments. When asked recently if they could carry on with a different guitarist, Glenn Hughes answered with an emphatic, "No". Although Bonamassa is a key part of the group, it seems a pity to break up the Bonham, Hughes, Sherinian partnership and you cannot help feeling there must be another blues inspired guitarist out there somewhere. After years of waiting, surely this is the golden opportunity for a Hughes-(Pat) Travers band.

The track is called Confessor... the CD, Afterglow, is set to be released Oct. 30th.

Had a good few listens to their third album Afterglow. Still not sure if it's good. Sometimes I think it sounds like a technical prog like rock album. Not easy to listen to.

Sometimes they get it right as in the song Common Man. Especially when Joe let loose!!

I like Afterglow a lot. It is quite heavy and Glenn Hughes shouts and screams his socks off. He and Jason Bonham work well together and, although Joe Bonamassa is reported to have telephoned in his guitar parts, they fit perfectly. The heavy funk of This is Your Time reminds me of Glenn's own excellent Soul Mover. My complaints would be that Midnight Sun sounds too much like AC/DC and, as always, there is not enough Derek Sherinian.

The Common Man riff reminds me of something, but, despite playing it over and over, I cannot think what. It'll come to me eventually.

Love the new one too, Big Ears...it's awesome.

It's from the title track of Danger Money by UK.
