I'm just getting into him, just wondering if anyone had any good starting points for me. Any albums in particular.

This guy is a sizzling on the guitar.

    Absolutely, massive fan !!!
    You really can't go wrong with any of Joe's albums.

    Live at Rockpalast DVD is a great place to start.
    Blues Deluxe is mostly covers, but freaking awesome.
    You and Me shows him maturing into his own writing style and has an amazing version of Tea for One on it.
    Sloe Gin, his most recent has a strong acoustci focus, but serriously good acoustic playing, lots of slide etc.
    Music is not a competetion.

    This is rockin' Joe:

    Also, his ability to ride the volume knob is probably unrivaled:

    If idle hands are the devil's workshop, he must not be very productive.

    Yep, big fan! I met him after one of his UK gigs and he was kind enough to sign my Strat.

    Big Joe B fan here too. The Rockplast DVD is great. He also has a live CD which is older--I forget what its called.
    Go se him live--like his promo stuff says--he's always on the road!
