Well, new to me at least.

Here's Robben and a young Joe Bonamassa:

I love North Carolina, I don't think I've ever seen a video of Robben playing it live, let alone with Blue Line. I mean hell, that video was from 17 years after The Inside Story was recorded. I had no idea he played it so late, great tune though...

I do remember seeing another clip from that same show with the Asian fellow, I don't remember what his name was...he was pretty good though. It's a shame they didn't up his volume during the sound check. Or maybe it's the recording, I don't know.

But man Joe was probably 15 in that clip...I'm really glad he slowed down a bit.

Wait...at what point did Robben break a string? I didn't even notice...nvm...4:52. He recovers amazingly quick though.

It sounds like Robben used the ending from that clip in the studio version of Good Thing at around 5:18.

some pretty horrendous playing there by Joe Bonnamassa - still I guess we were all like that when we were 15 years old!!!

I bet this clip makes him cringe now!!!

Robben is just thinking to himself "dont do it Joe - you'll regret it someday when youtube is invented!!!"

I have never seen these videos, thanks for the link.
But I have this album in my collection since many years.
There all on a sampler called 'Rhythmsticks'
