Hello

Hi and welcome first of all. Better late than never as they say. As to your question, you will get a hundred different answers (maybe), depending on our individual tastes. Earlier fans will cite some of the earlier releases and latecomers some of the more recent recordings.

Fact is, you'r e gonna have to buy 'em all! My first purchase of Joe's was 'You and Me' so I am a relative latecomer. But I suspect most fans would agree that 'Live - from Nowhere in Particular' should feature somewhere in that 1,2, 3 list.

For me it is one of the best sounding live recordings I have ever heard, and the playing ain't bad either

I also love 'Blues Deluxe' and 'Sloe Gin'. I suppose though LFNIP really showcases the magnificence of his performing. It is jaw dropping stunning. Simple as that.

That said I am waiting for my Royal Albert Hall DVD as I write- so who knows? This will probably be the new 'best'.

Whatever you go for.........enjoy........it's genius at work.

Yeah I would say

Still at least with the download function Amazon is less financially painful these days, especially if you need to do a lot of shopping...........and it looks like you do. you can even download the covers these days. There is a link on here somewhere in 'General'.

Come back and let us know what you think. You will need to get to a show. Fortunately, JB is a prolific tourer so there's bound to be a show near you somewhere soon. But be warned - take a friend as you need help to put your jaw back after it hits the floor

lol, I believe ya' Geoff.

My collection includes artists all the way back to Hound Dog Taylor. Like everyone else here I love the blues and when I saw "Joe" on You Tube, I damn near popped the speakers on my Mac.:cool:

I Tripsy and thank you for the welcome.

I know exactly what you're saying because a quick look at my CD collection, tells me that many unknown artists "to me", quickly found more and more of their CD's in my home.

"Me thinks" that I've found another one!:cool:

Well suffice to say...........I'm hooked! But I'm guessing all of you here knew that this would happen!!!!

Anyway, thanks for the info and now it's off to Amazon to do a little bit more shopping.

Hi. Most likely I'll get that and Sloe Gin next. Great stuff.

We all agree

Hi gwog - welcome aboard!

Joe blew me away just the same way - I'm sure it won't be long before you've got the whole back catalogue. And don't forget to check out the "Other Artists" section of the forum. There's probably a few other blues guys you've been missing out on recently that get a mention in there. Gotta keep the Blues alive!
