But other thing is interesting - no Mistreated? Is he singing any vocal improvisation in any song?
Don't Let Me Bleed has a long vocal improvisation at the end. Equally as good as the Mistreated improvs.

I'll be there tonight in Glasgow - really looking forward to it.
Pop over and say hi.
Thanks David. Sounding great. Roll on Saturday!
There's now a recording of Heaven and Hell's set available for download at Dimeadozen.
I'm relying on my other half to suss that out as he is from Hamilton
Just down the road from me...
Be good to meet up with everyone beforehand.
Err.... Given the timing, are these actually going to be Black Country shows ? (If they become confirmed of course).
Bonamassa plays bigger venues than these on his solo tours, so surely Black Country would also (Joe's fans + Glenn's fans + supergroup interest factor = ????)
Am i dreaming..............a date in Scotland (potentially).........will I wake up and it find it has been a nightmare..............here's hoping.
I shalld efinitely be at Glasgow - see you all there, or maybe we should meet in a pub first. Ive met Weissheim before, so how about it?
yeeehaaaar!
Sounds good to me. I should be able to get in early as it's a Saturday.
Opeth have also been added to the bill. Fantastic line-up. Unfortunately a no-no for me
Still nothing definite to confirm David?
Tickets reported to be on sale for some of these shows on Friday.
I know they're unconfirmed, but the dates are also listed on Ents24.com and the Glasgow date is listed on the venue website, so
I'll be at the Glasgow show. 5 years since the last Scottish date, so really looking forward to this.
not sure about Joe doing any of the vocals. He is ok doing his own solo songs, but would rather it was left to Glenn alone. Will just have to wait and see.
I've only really got into Bonamassa in the past year and he is a wonderful singer, full of soul and passion, quite like a young Paul Rodgers. I'd go as far as saying that if he's only playing guitar and not singing with Glenn in this group then it'll be a real shame.
David - What's the production quality of this DVD like? Better than Soufully Live?
Congratulations Shirl!
Happy Birthday Wolfy!
Freedom of speech is a given. It's irresponsible to launch a poll and 1) change its parameters 2) decide half way through that each of the CR staff get 500 votes each.
To be fair I don't know the background to the poll. If the different factors were made clear at the start that's fine. If the parameters were changed midway through, then I agree with you.
QuoteRegarding the Gillan jibe, again it's the standard of journalism you would expect from an amateur blogger. Nobody at Glenn's camp was called to comment. Standard college stuff. No balance. If somebody slagged you off in the local press, would you expect to be given the opportunity to comment? Isn't that your freedom of speech?
Gillan's known for shooting his mouth off of late. Do people really take his opinions as gospel and need a corresponding line from Glenn to combat it? Now when it comes to so-called facts, I think they should be challenged (i.e. Gillan's assertion that the average age of Purple's current audience is 18!)
The "Glenn not a bona fide member of Purple" argument is one that you will see time and time again on many Purple forums. It's obviously not one that I agree with, but Gillan spouting it in CR is hardly introducing something radically new into the public domain that needs "balance". I'll agree to disagree with you on this one.
As an aside, I remember Glenn saying fairly negative things about Whitesnake and Rainbow in Kerrang many years ago, with no comeback from Blackmore or Coverdale.

Surprisingly this time (never before), I got a reply from Classic Rock earlier today.
I guess we'll have to respectfully agree to disagree.
I'm probably in the minority here, but I agree with CR's letter. Multiple / orchestrated voting does distort these online polls, so taking the results and including other criteria is probably the best way to do it. Having said that, the process should be completely transparent.
CR is still the best magazine of its type for me (if they could calm down on the Led Zep and G 'N' R coverage :))
From a personal and PRofessional point of view, I am sick to the back teeth of Classic Shock's shoddy attitude to Glenn. Forgetting to put our paid ad in for the UK tour last year, allowing Gillian's bitchy schoolgirl jibes to go unchecked by any of us in Glenn's camp here, and now this latest shite.
Gillan's bitching in the DP Special annoyed me too, but there is such a thing as freedom of speech. Why should CR have checked it with Glenn's PR? It was an opinion, nothing else. Gillan wasn't stating anything untrue or potentially libellous.
RIP John.
My friends and I used to play some Martyn songs (Sweet Little Mystery, May You Never, etc). A truly unique talent - sadly missed.
