Bloodline was an American blues-rock band from New York City, New York. Formed in 1991, the group originally featured vocalist Aaron Hagar, lead guitarist "Smokin' Joe" Bonamassa, rhythm guitarist Waylon Krieger, bassist Berry Oakley Jr., drummer Erin Davis and keyboardist Lou Segreti. After Aaron Hagar was fired due to creative differences, Berry Oakley took over as lead vocalist and the group began recording demos for a planned studio album. Bloodline's name was chosen based on the fact that four of the group's founding members were the sons of famous musicians – Aaron Hagar of Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar, Waylon Krieger of former The Doors guitarist Robby Krieger, Berry Oakley Jr. of original Allman Brothers Band bassist Berry Oakley, and Erin Davis of prolific jazz trumpeter Miles Davis. Bloodline's lead guitarist, Joe Bonamassa, may not be the progeny of a legend, but he is certainly the prodigy of this group. The band recorded their self-titled debut album at Ardent Studios in Memphis, Tennessee. BLOODLINE was released by EMI and Capitol Records on 23rd August 1994. The album received positive reviews from a number of publications, whom focused their praise on Bonamassa's lead guitar performance. His rocking guitar on this album practically overwhelms the other members of the group, who are all fine musicians. After the touring cycle, Bloodline announced that they wanted to continue the band without Joe Bonamassa, changing their style from blues-rock to alternative rock. The group disbanded shortly after. Following the band's breakup, Erin Davis worked as a manager of his father's estate, acting as executive producer on several of his posthumous releases. Berry Oakley Jr. joined Los Angeles, California-based band Gift Horse, and Waylon Krieger continued performing in his father's band, as well as becoming an actor, while Joe Bonamassa started his solo career in 2000 with the release of his debut album A New Day Yesterday.
PERSONNEL: Berry Oakley Jr. – bass, lead vocals; "Smokin' Joe" Bonamassa – lead guitar; Waylon Krieger – rhythm guitar, backing vocals; Erin Davis – drums, percussion; Lou Segreti – keyboards, backing vocals; William Brown, Bertram Brown - backing vocals; Warren Haynes - guest slide guitar.
Right from the start you see Joe Bonamassa as a young rebel, committed to the blues. As a member of the band Bloodline, composed of music legends’ kids, Joe shreds guitar like no other 13-year-old. What ultimately breaks up this band is that Joe is far beyond these musicians in maturity and dedication to music. He just wants to play guitar. BLOODLINE is another "one and done" recording of hard blues rock by these kids of famous musicians. Actually it has some good bluesy shit going on. Though the nineties were even more musically barren than the eighties, this is one of the best blues-influenced rock albums, on par with Stevie Ray Vaughan and Robin Trower's early solo work. What would you expect from Joe Bonamassa? Some long guitar solos from Joe and they are bluesy as hell. This is a much better recording than should be expected. Another excellent rocker, Warren Haynes, makes a guest appearance on slide guitar. But, listen to this early tracks with a band of sons of famous band members. The song material is composed very distinguished and inventive by these young musicians, performed in a way to keep your feet moving with the rhythm. This album is what you expected from some brash 18 year old guys mean that in a good sense. It's a rocking CD that should be in your collection if you are a Joe Bonamassa fan. Best played loud!
