Black Country Communion - Black Country Communion (2010)



Black Country Communion is a devastating head-on collision between American and British rock influences a true supergroup that delivers a titanic rock experience greater than the sum of its supremely talented parts. The brainchild of producer Kevin Shirley (Black Crowes, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin), the band combines the rock lineage and forces of legendary frontman and bass guitarist Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Trapeze), master blues-rock guitarist Joe Bonamassa, powerhouse drummer Jason Bonham (Led Zeppelin, Foreigner) and keyboardist Derek Sherinian (Dream Theater, Billy Idol, Alice Cooper). Named after the industrial area in Britain where both Hughes and Bonham were born and raised, Black Country Communion began rehearsing and recording tracks written by both Hughes and Bonamassa at Shangri-La Studios in early 2010.

All songs are sung by Hughes, with the exception of Song Of Yesterday and The Revolution In Me, which are both sung by Bonamassa. The two singers share vocals on Sista Jane and Too Late For The Sun. Also included is a new version of Medusa, the rock classic Hughes originally recorded with his first band, Trapeze.

Tracklist:
01. Black Country
02. One Last Soul
03. The Great Divide
04. Down Again

Great interview with most of the band. Thanks Marnold.

...and they are talking about another album in January.

[sunvalleylaw]

Cool, listening now at work.

Whelp, after finishing listening to the Rockline thing, I ended up pre-ordering the CD/DVD. Seems like a good ol' fashioned rawk and roll album.

Ya, I've got to be in on this too. It sounds great!

I got my download link from Joe's site. Unfortunately, it does precisely nothing.

Got it, like it.

Got the CD/DVD at the music store. They had a bunch of them.

Going to check out the DVD now.

Finally was able to download it today. I've listened to it all except the last track. I really like "Song of Yesterday."
