On the topic of Claptopn, I felt he was overrated for a bit of time. I liked some things he did, but thought he got more credit than he deserved. Then I grabbed "Crossroads 2: Live in the 70's" for cheap and my entire opinion of him changed. That guy played out of his mind in the 70's. I'm a believer now.
As for the new Bonamassa, I probably need to relisten, but I was kind of underwhelmed the first listen through. I love "Drive" but I thought the rest was kinda flat. I should probably re-listen though. Dude's definitely talented and I'll probably buy his next one because I generally buy all his new studio releases (missed "Different Shades of Blue" or whatever the last one was due to financial restraints and just never went back to grab it and can't possibly keep up with his 85,000 live releases per year).
