Don´t know if this has been posted before, but they made a pretty good record called "Tijuana Bible" which features Joe on Leadguitar on a song called "Deep water Lullaby". It´s cool. 
Eva
P.S.: Got to give credit where credit is due - my dad bought it. 
Nice discussion on this earlier:
http://www.jbonamassa.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=8843
Worth mentioning again for sure...
Sorry for double-mentioning it - I knew that if I didn´t use the search function one time, it´s gonna be like that - DOH!
But yes, the album is worth mentioning again .....
Eva
Thanks for bringing this to my attention Eva. I had not read the previous discussion either (possibly because the thread was the album title "Tijuana Bible 2/17" and had not realised it was in reference to Jim Suhler & Monkey Beat. It seems interesting, and an intriguing set of cover versions too! 
Meanwhile I´ve got "Dirt road", another very nice, more acoustic Jim Suhler album from 2003.

I, too, have Dirt Road, and really like Jim Suhler. The problem is I now get most of my music on iTunes and they have very little of his music. I'm sure the album Eva mentioned is a good one cause Jim knows his way around a guitar and has an interesting approach to contemporary Blues.

As David was writing you find something about the new album in the first thread
http://www.jbonamassa.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=8843.
There is also mentioned that "Tijuana Bible" is not yet published in the States. But you can order by amazon.de
Günter
Thanks Gunter! I went and read the earlier posts and will get the new album - Jim Suhler's just too good to pass up.

Beautiful find, Jane! Thanks for posting.

He's heading across the pond later this year George to play some UK & European dates
Only one I know of so far is the Carlsle Blues Festival in November.

I had a word with Jim on FB a few days ago and asked about both the new cd and the possibility of any Dutch shows.
Me: Any chance of a Dutch show while you're over here?
Jim: Maybe
Me: Any news on a release date for the new cd?
Jim: Nope
There was a bit more to our dialogue than that, but those were his verbatim answers. Fingers crossed, wait and see. 
Just posted by Jim on FB -
"Alright, I'm on two cd's coming out this summer. one with Buddy Whittington & Vince Converse and this one with George Thorogood & the Destroyers.
Special guests include Buddy Guy, Charlie Musselwhite and more."
The press release about the GT cd is a nice read - I'll post it in a GT topic. 
I got to meet up with Jim Suhler in August 2009.. Overall nice guy.. he put on a killer show with George in NYC.
Definitely a great band to see live, I would also like to see him with his own band.
Bill
Jim´s website is a bit sleepy: the new album is still announced for February 2011, the tour dates end with April 1st.

November 6 - Cafe Gompelhof, Belgium - Jim Suhler
http://www.gompelhof.be/
It looks that I can't see Ryan McGarvey on 6 November (but on 4 November :-) )
There are some more dates that I found on Jim Suhler's website and they don't really fit, or will he really come from Britain to Belgium for one gig and then head back to UK?
Friday, November 4 - Barrow Blues Club @ The Labour Club Barrow-In-Furnace, UK
Saturday, November 5 - Devizes Blues Club Devizes-Wilts, UK
Monday, November 7 - Famous Monday Blues Club - The Bullington Oxford, UK
Thursday, November 10 - the Forum Univ. of Hertfordshire, Herts, UK
Friday, November 11 - Bronte Blues Club Laycock Village Hall Yorkshire, UK
Saturday, November 12 - Carlisle Blues Festival - Carlisle, UK
Saturday, November 19 - Poor David's Pub Dallas, TX
Thursday, December 29 - Tolbert's Grapevine, TX
Friday, December 30 - Keys Lounge Fort Worth, TX
I'm trying to find out if this one Belgian gig is really on, in between all the UK gigs. I would be SO stoked to see Jim live in this very small and intimate venue!
