BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION - LIVE IN LONDON 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.  http://fp.io/c5558ab2/

REVIEW
by Eugene Chadbourne
The Massachusetts combo the Benders has chosen a name that attracts confusion with a variety of other bands, none of which sport a traditional bluegrass instrumentation. Nonetheless, there is an Australian rock band with exactly the same name and several more single-minded Bender bands. Naming people with the last name Bender isn't fair, but the huge number of bands that claim to bend things is worth mentioning, from the Halo Benders to the Fender Benders. Musically, the band that is under discussion here is affiliated with a range of styles that at least in terms of historical placement seems much more vast than the number of times the name the Benders has been typeset across a cover. All of it is the type of thing that has been wrapped in the new millennium cloak of alternative country, which in the long run seems to mean some people are listening to country as an alternative to everything else. "Banjo in the Rain" is a track that could have been recorded in the lobby of a hotel in Asheville by a '20s talent scout; it is pure oldtime beauty, the adoration for the banjo expressed in the lyrics more a philosophical certainty than a sentimental notion. Other material on the 2002 release harks back not quite so far, say the '80s and the Eagles, who might have recorded a song such as "Highway Eyes" and gotten the Dobro on Top 40 radio to boot. Tim Kelly plays the latter instrument in this group, sliding in with a bit of zip whenever the energy begins to subside and sometimes at points when it would have been better not to. Mandolin, guitar, banjo, and bass complete the instrumental picture, all recorded in a semicircle standing around a pair of microphones. The recording technique and the ability to pull it off are commendable, although it would be reaching to suggest that even the best of these tracks have the transcendent nature of a vintage recording. What is missing is something in the nature of substance, though while the material is rarely mediocre it also won't quite bowl the listener over. The main songwriters are guitarist John Bayer and banjo player Bow Thayer, their names challenging a critic to lapse into rhyming appraisal of their contributions: "It seems that Thayer/Might be a better songwriter than Bayer/ But arrive at the part of the CD where/Five of the former's ditties are there/Feel quite stifled, breathing this songwriter's aire." When it comes to Thayer's banjo playing, though, it has to be said that this is an aspect that makes this recording incredibly appealing. It would be irrelevant to compare this to the appeal of the famous masters in bluegrass and oldtime, as an independent CD such as this is bound not to get great distribution regardless of how great it could be. This group and the musicians in it have great promise, however, and could be up to great things as time goes on. The final track in the program is a joke that wouldn't really merit mentioning other than to warn radio programmers that it has some doo-doo words in it.

Review
by James Christopher Monger (Allmusic)
The hard rock supergroup (Glenn Hughes, Joe Bonamassa, Jason Bonham, and Derek Sherinian) Black Country Communion's first concert release, Live Over Europe, follows the band over three nights in the German cities of Hamburg, Munich, and Berlin as they bash out fan favorites like "Black Country," "Cold," "Song of Yesterday," "Save Me," and "Man in the Middle," all of which skillfully straddle the line between traditional English and American classic rock. The audio-only edition spans two discs and features 18 cuts, while the DVD/Blu-Ray editions include a collector's booklet, a photo collection, and a short behind-the-scenes film.
