Re: Lazy - Jimmy Barnes & Joe Bonamassa

Absolutely - Joe really smokes on that song and whilst I'm a huge fan of Brad Whitford's his lead break doesn't hold a candle to Mr B on that one. I also prefer Jimmy Barnes singing it to Gillan, whose ott vocals put me off a lot of DP stuff. I guess they cut that one during the sessions for Driving Towards The Daylight, when Jimmy came in to record the excellent version of Too much Ain't Enough Love.
It's also worth pointing out that a certain enemy of the melodic rock faithful - Mr Kevin Shirley - has made that one sound pretty damned good to boot.
