Brian Ross Writer, Journalist, Documentarian, and Political Satirist Posted: December 11, 2010 02:52 PM Joe Bonamassa is to the blues-rock guitar what a tsunami is to a coastline: A devastating force of nature to be reckoned with. Easily one of the top guitarists living, he could go toe-to-toe with Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix. So why haven't you heard of him? He opened for B.B. King at the age of 12, and has played with Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Foreigner, Robert Cray, Stephen Stills, Joe Cocker, Gregg Allman, Steve Winwood, Paul Jones, Ted Nugent, Warren Haynes, and Derek Trucks, to name a few.
