‘Tales of Time‘ is a live recording of Joe Bonamassa’s latest studio album, ‘Time Clocks‘, but far beyond that, it is the best Blues album of 2023.
Is the live album (Tales of Time) better than the studio album (Time Clocks)?
Blues-rock superstar Joe Bonamassa is one of today’s most acclaimed musicians.
- In 2021 he achieved his 25th number 1 on the Billboard Blues Album Chart, with his latest studio album ‘Time Clocks‘.
2 years later, in 2023, he decides to record those same songs live in a unique setting, the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado (USA), calling the album ‘Tales of Time (Live)‘.
- Seeing or listening to Bonamassa play his collection of guitars, accompanied by an exceptional band of musicians is a privilege and he knows it, that’s why he has released 6 live albums, more than studio albums.
- Tales of Time is his best live performance and elevates the songs of his album creating a unique connection with the audience.
Joe Bonamassa ‘Tales of Time (Live)’
This live show represents our most progressive and largest production to date, focusing on my most ambitious studio album to date. My band was a force of nature on this show, and it truly was a special night.

Joe Bonamassa Tales of Time
Joe Bonamassa’s guitar virtuosity is the key to making this the best Blues-Rock album of the year. Far from settling in, Bonamassa and his band play masterfully, so much so that if it weren’t for the applause at the end of each song, you wouldn’t know that Tales of Time is recorded live.
The CD, which begins by narrating passages from Kahil Gibran’s The Prophet, has 10 wonderful songs:
- Notches: rocking track where Joe’s melodic guitar makes you anticipate a special concert.
- The Heart That Never Waits: With the Telecaster, a wonderful choir and the rhythm section, this song sounds amazing.
- Curtain Call
- Mind’s Eye: One of our favorites, despite being a heartbreak song.
- Questions and Answers
- The Loyal Kind: The melody is awesome and the emotion that Joe puts into singing it, makes it our favorite song of the album and Trembol’s Emotion of the Week.
- Known Unknowns
- Time Clocks
- Just ‘Cos You Can Don’t Mean You Should
- Evil Mama: A devilish guitar solo by Joe Bonamassa to end the record 🎸
The DVD includes several bonus tracks like Mountain Time, Dust Bowl, Midnight Blues, I Didn’t Think She Would Do It and The Ballad of John Henry. Enjoy!

Joe Bonamassa 'The Loyal Kind' Lyrics
These maidens in the shadows
Bring darkness to the light
I know I have fallen
I know I’m just not right
I’ve dug myself a hole
With the shovel that I brought
Did you think I was blind
Or you wouldn’t get caught?
With the horses in the stable
And the dinner’s on the table
The wrongs don’t make rights
As it says in the fables
I reached out to you
As I reached out to God
You were drunk on the mountain
Or you’re blinded by the fog
Dark trails of brick and stone
Dark trails in the way you feel alone
I won’t be around next timeI’ve played around with those tumbling dice
Are you gonna spin around and betray me twice?
Oh, I knew it all along and I hate when I’m right
I’m asking are you the loyal kind
Are you the loyal kind?
Are you the loyal kind?
So I took one for the team
Call it self-esteem
You took the irons outta the sky
And put the irons on me
All the city lights and silhouettes
Did you meet your new boss?
I hope he has your back
When your new money’s lost
Dark trails of brick and stone
Dark trails in the way you feel alone
I won’t be around next timeOh, I’ve played around with those tumbling dice
Are you gonna spin around and betray me twice?
I knew it all along and I hate when I’m right
I’m asking are you the loyal kind
Are you the loyal kind?
Are you the loyal kind?Dark trails of brick and stone
Dark trails in the way you feel alone
I won’t be around next timeI’ve played around with those tumbling dice
Are you gonna spin around and betray me twice?
Oh, I knew it all along and I hate when I’m right
I’m asking are you the loyal kind
Are you the loyal kind?
Are you the loyal kind?
Are you the loyal kind?
Are you the loyal kind?
Joe Bonamassa 'The Loyal Kind' Lyrics in Spanish
Estas doncellas en la sombra
Traen la oscuridad a la luz
Sé que he caído
Sé que no estoy bien
Me he cavado un agujero
Con la pala que traje
¿Creíste que era ciego
O que no te pillaría?
Con los caballos en el establo
Y la cena en la mesa
Los males no hacen bien
Como dicen las fábulas
Te acerqué a tí
Como me acerqué a Dios
Estabas borracho en la montaña
O cegado por la niebla
Oscuros senderos de ladrillo y piedra
senderos oscuros en el camino, te sientes solo
No estaré aquí la próxima vezHe jugado con esos dados
¿Vas a girar y traicionarme dos veces?
Oh, lo supe todo el tiempo y odio cuando tengo razón
Te pregunto, ¿eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
Así que tomé uno para el equipo
Llámalo autoestima
Tu tomaste los hierros del cielo
Y pusiste los hierros en mí
Todas las luces y siluetas de la ciudad
¿Conociste a tu nuevo jefe?
Espero que te cubra las espaldas
Cuando tu nuevo dinero se pierda
Oscuros senderos de ladrillo y piedra
senderos oscuros en el camino, te sientes solo
No estaré aquí la próxima vezHe jugado con esos dados
¿Vas a girar y traicionarme dos veces?
Oh, lo supe todo el tiempo y odio cuando tengo razón
Te pregunto, ¿eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?Oscuros senderos de ladrillo y piedra
senderos oscuros en el camino, te sientes solo
No estaré aquí la próxima vezHe jugado con esos dados
¿Vas a girar y traicionarme dos veces?
Oh, lo supe todo el tiempo y odio cuando tengo razón
Te pregunto, ¿eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
¿Eres de tipo leal?
