THE ALBUM OF THE DAYBLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION... 2 (2011)
(CD, vinyl, Allmusic review)
Just when you thought the genre of blues rock had been exhausted and could ever be ignited again, along comes this vibrant and refreshing album. And from a bunch of old and experienced music hands. All musicians excel on this album and have grown into an extremely tight unit. Jason Bonham is brilliant on the drums, Joe Bonamassa is a genius. Glenn Hughes is singing and playing bass as well as ever. A must have for all those rockers out there that still crave for the days of Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and something new. Absolutely brilliant
