Topic: Joe.....I just have to say

Happier times at the RAH.

WOW!!!!!!!!

I know it was a while back....but strangely tonight was the first time I listened to it.

The vocals, to me, were just absolutely perfect.

The whole mood of the song, its just fantastic. I love the vibe of the song!


Need I mention the impeccable guitar playing? I doubt.


Now excuse me while I play it again.

That and the version of The Great Flood on the RAH DVD are the greatest live performances I've ever seen.

Absolutely perfect moments captured forever.  big_smile

What ever happened to the older versions of Joe playing Just Got Paid that used to be on youtube?  Ever see them?  They looked like he was is an auditorium or something...

I've probably seen every just  got paid video there is to see lol I especially like the one done at the North Sea Jazz festival as I love his guitar tone there..it's incredible! I also really like this version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikZTAYoD0Ns

2:29 is just awesome..that smooth transition from the soulful bend into the super fast lick...gotta love it! wink

I couldn't agree more.  Joe's tone and phrasing on Great Flood is mesmerizing - as good as any guitar master that's ever been out there - IMO.

Guitars: '79 LP Custom, '01 Dickey Betts Goldie - 80 of 114, '00 Chandler Lectraslide
Amps: '00 Marshall 1987x, '70 Marshall 1959 SL, 4x12 JBL D120s
'64 Vibroverb - JBL D130, '66 Super Reverb - CTS Alnicos
'77 Peavey Deuce (great for melting stubborn ear wax)

For me, it is the second line of 'Just Got Paid' on 'Live from Nowhere in Particular' when he plays the D down to the A chords - the tone of those chords just makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up!!!  cool

I agree with you 100% there! big_smile

Also..I like when he sings 'like a devil race car...' on Lonesome Road Blues - so catchy wink

Finally...Sloe Gin at the Royal Albert Hall - few seconds into the solo where he hits that bend..then bends it up even further...gets me everytime! lol
