DRIVING TOWARDS THE DAYLIGHT is the tenth studio album by blues rock guitarist Joe Bonamassa, released on 22nd May 2012. DRIVING TOWARDS THE DAYLIGHT is a balanced and back-to-basics album that highlights Bonamassa’s signature style of blues, roots, and rock and roll. Perception always serves up a slice of skepticism for a record that contains more renditions of other artist’s songs than actual original tracks. Creativity? Originality? Individuality? All are characteristics that come into question when taking this approach to an album’s creation. Yet, it’s a method that American blues rock guitarist and singer Joe Bonamassa has utilized significantly throughout his career to great success. Bonamassa knows the formula for blues rock – low on lyrics, bulky in emotive instrumentals. In DRIVING TOWARDS THE DAYLIGHT, Joe Bonamassa lets his guitar do most of the talking, a prime example of modern blues at its finest. DRIVING TOWARDS THE DAYLIGHT is definitely the bluesiest album from Bonamassa in the past few years. The album sees Joe return to the blues and in a big way. Gutsy and steeped in the blues, singer-guitarist Bonamassa seems an unstoppable force. Here he mixes construction site originals with aggressive takes. You does not, in any way, condone excessive drinking, or wandering off into the night and doing dark deeds. However, you'd make an exception in the case of Joe Bonamassa's latest offering, because if ever a blues record needed to get leathered on bourbon, rampage through the gloaming and just let itself go, dammit, it's this one.

He'll never be the new Stevie Ray Vaughan, but at the rate blues-rock guitarist Joe Bonamassa is going, he can take a stab at being the next Gary Moore. Like the Irish guitarist, Bonamassa is influenced by the British blues-rockers more than the Americans they lifted their licks from. He's also just as prolific. This is his thirteenth album in twelve years and that's not including side projects with Black Country Communion and Beth Hart, and DVDs grabbed from his 200-night-a-year road schedule filled with sweaty, high-energy performances. Bonamassa isn't much of a songwriter so he wisely contributes only four tunes to this disc's eleven, with some relatively obscure deep blues covers. For better or worse, they all end up sounding like Joe Bonamassa tracks. He's left his road-hardened band on the sidelines and calls in top-notch session guys, including Aerosmith's Brad Whitford, David Letterman drummer Anton Fig, and keyboardist Arlen Schierbaum, whose piano and organ add some much-needed R&B attitude to the hard rock attack. Bonamassa even relinquishes lead vocals to Australian Jimmy Barnes, who goes so over the top singing his own "Too Much Ain't Enough Love" it seems like he is auditioning for AC/DC. The arrangements and guitars mesh together like whisky and soda. What Bonamassa lacks in a distinctive sound and singing, he makes up for with sheer determination, which is almost enough to push the album from pretty good to pretty great.
