Joe Bonamassa and team have released an electronic press kit for his upcoming album The Ballad of John Henry. In the video, Joe talks about the ideas behind The Ballad of John Henry, including why John Henry is the focal point of the album, and the balance of creating a blues record that is raw enough and also polished enough. I’ve been listening to the album for a couple of weeks, and I think he’s hit the nail on the head with the balance.
