Reprising their acclaimed 2011 Don't Explain partnership, the pair’s latest setlist opens with big band blues swing Them There Eyes and closes with a haunting take on Billie Holiday’s anti-racism anthem Strange Fruit.
In between they rock up a storm, particularly on Ike & Tina-styled Nutbush City Limits, the rollicking Can’t Let Go, and the Commitments soul punch of the title track.
The cover is great apart from the photo! Was it possible to make Bonamassa look like less of a rock god? Rubbish effort.
