Joe Bonamassa Interview in Vintage Guitar Magazine

April 20, 2009 by Josh

In August 2007, Vintage Guitar magazine featured Joe Bonamassa as the cover story. A few months ago they posted the interview online. In the interview, Bonamassa discusses his guitar collection (with pictures!), his early career, and his experiences with guitar legends:

Asked why his experiences with such legends have been so positive, Bonamassa chuckled, “I listened to old records… I should have been born in 1950. I’m into old guitars, I’ve owned an old car, and for a large portion of my life, I didn’t listen to anything that was made after 1974. When I met all of those guys, they liked the fact that I could kinda talk the language in the sense that I knew a lot of the ins and outs of older recordings. And to be honest, a lot of the people I’ve opened for tend to draw a bigger crowd, so I’d tempered my act to fit that type of audience.”
