Joe on guitar. Glenn on vocals.
Rock n roll.
Problem solved.
You're welcome.
Not dogging JB but that album is a snooze-fest for me. Never been a huge Glenn Hughes fan though. JB can get a little too Eric Johnson like for me (there's already an EJ) but he touches on enough other things that I like him enough. I prefer more raw tones and phrasing though so I can only take him in small doses.
BCC is one of the best albums I have heard in the last 5 years. I have it on constant rotation. I dislike when he switches into EJ mode, but there isn't a lot of that on there and he has tones of raw tones on there to balance out his EJ stuff. I much prefer his harder edge riffing and solos. Hughes bass and voices mixed with JB's riff's and solos really sell it for me. The one thing I don't like about EJ is that even though he is super proficient technically, his playing and tone lacks balls to me. When JB adopts his style, at least on BCC he adds the balls to EJ's style. It is like he took it the step further that I needed to even like it. He added the drive and the more aggressive tone. I still prefer his more raw, rock tone and style...but at least it is an improvement. The one thing I don't dig on BCC is when JB sings. I like him as a singer, but I prefer Hughes in BCC.
^agree 100% with that ... I think BCC is good example of guys that really compliment eachother ... Hughes's vocals are made for that album ...
