I'm a bit disappointed about Satriani, Vai and Lukather, difficult to recognise and small and no significant parts...

I come out of this with a new appreciation for Bonamassa, unbelievable tone.

You need to listen to more up to date Bonamasa my friend - he'll blow your mind! Not only his guitar playing - fast or slow but his vocals are immense

He just confirmed what I already thought about him - he has to show off all the time, playing louder and faster than anyone else.

I didn't get that feeling...in fact I thought Joe was very masterful, dignified and very melodic in his piece.

Yes, he can play much louder and faster, if you want... ;D I was on his loudest gig in Kassel some years ago.
Next month Münster. You have to give him a deeper  listen

Perhaps the other work I've heard from him is clouding my judgement here but I just can't take to him at all.  Then there's the sunglasses - make him look like a pimp from a '70s B-movie.

And add to that a classical, almost maniacal race towards collecting as many vintage guitars as possible on this planet without apparent reason. He can't play them all, dude! Joe is the kind of guy who makes me wish not to ever become a guitar collector. But once you look past all this—fast playing, similar blues lines, shades (which he has reasons to wear just like Mark had reasons to wear a headband), guitar collecting—he's definitely a great man, generous soul, a great player, and a former child prodigy. Joe can play, and nobody will argue with that.

I also can take Bonamassa only in small doses. I truly dislike most of his own music (much due to the production values and simply poor songwriting), his stage persona and the lacking ability to restrain himself when playing solos. BUT - there is no denying he's immensely talented, he can play almost any style at the highest level, and he has great guitar tone. And on the Going Home track, I think he did a fabulous job. Or at least Guy picked parts that fit really well. Nothing over the top. None of those rapid-fire pentatonic runs (Super Mario music!), just a tasteful mix of melodic and bluesy lines.

I like Joe Brown’s Mandolin part. Good idea to include Mando.

Yes, very nice and I like also the following acoustic by Dave Mason.

Now when I have listened the track couple of times with the guidance video, it is difficult to listen it without.

I was also wondering if there were only a few people following the original melody and thus for example the Boss got that long part? (that is nice sounding one though)

I haven't listened that much Jeff Beck, but I think that the guitar tone here is quite awful.

I agrre about Jeff Beck, It didn't really do much for me I'm afraid :o I much prefer Mark's original opening, maybe David Gilmour playing that intro would have worked better, for me.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

Hahahaha, no different Joe wearing sunglasses to someone we know wearing a sweat band on their head! Both practical reasons even if it makes you look like a tennis player!!

Bonamassa has really grown and matured a lot over the last couple of years (also as a singer and songwriter). I'm taking him seriously now, which I certainly didn't back in 2008-ish and for a long time afterwards.
