Topic: "You and Me" ranking on Billboards charts

I was at Barnes & Noble this evening getting the Vintage Guitar mag with Joe on the cover and noticed this weeks issue of Billboard. You and Me is still on the charts! I copied the blues section down and this is the rankings by Billboard for June 16th. Joe is holding steady and has been in the top 15 consistently for almost a year now! smile

No doubt in my mind, it's gonna happen. There's so many new fans coming on board this tour and they're all aware that a new CD is in the very near future.

Every music store I go to,  You and Me is always in stock!  Of course I always move Joe in front...

Music is good for the Soul...

He is picking up in my area, I went to the music store yesterday, all his albums, and probably " rockpalast ". The interesting thing is I go to the used disk thay people sell back to the store, I've found some great ones in that area. I got curious and looked for "bonamassa", sure enough there was a slot, it was empty though. My thought was who was the idiot that sold that one back, I would have tried to be cool and ask them why. I'm sure that would not have gone down well since I dont hide my anger real well, probably would have gave them the stink eye.

P.S....... If you are a guest on here and live in Roseville, my e-mail is on here, drop a line, I know you have bought a disk recently, the store manager told me (LOL)

Re: "You and Me" ranking on Billboards charts

C'mon - SRV is at #1....

I'm getting  a little sick of greatest hits, essential collections, lives, etc... its all the same stuff.

Does anyone have that album? Is there anything unique on it? That would certainly trump my grief.

I stopped buying Kiss records when they kept coming out with Greatest Hits albums....over and over again.

Since 2010, Bonamassa fans have taken advantage of my JB friend discount = my cost + shipping. cool
