DUST BOWL, originally released in 2001, is Bonamassa’s 9th studio release on Provogue Records in Europe and his 6th collaboration with Dust Bowl’s producer, Kevin “Caveman” Shirley (Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Black Crowes, Black Country Communion).This long overdue vinyl reissue is expanded to 2 discs, for optimal sound quality.Recorded in sessions at Black Rock Studios in Santorini, Greece, Ben’s Studio in Nashville, TN, The Cave in Malibu, CA and The Village in Los Angeles, CA, Dust Bowl combines the gritty, blues-based tones of Bonamassa’s first albums with the fluid, genre-defying sounds he’s mastered in the years since, plus a dose of Nashville in duets with legends John Hiatt and Vince Gill.Gill lends his signature guitar stylings to the John Hiatt/John Porter penned “Tennessee Plates,” on which Hiatt duets with Bonamassa.Gill also plays on “Sweet Rowena,” a song he composed with frequent writing partner Pete Wasner.Arlan Scheirbaum, Beth Hart and Blondie Chaplin play on the Michael Kamen/Tim Curry track “No Love On The Street,” and Glenn Hughes sings on the Paul Rodgers-penned “Heartbreaker.”
