Title: Cradle Rock - Joe Bonamassa - Jiffs Mixes Blues
Cradle Rock was written by Rory Gallagher, First released on Tattoo Album, on November 11, 1973.
It was covered by Joe Bonamassa on October 24, 2000. The Audio here is the 2020 Live version, Video dubbed / mixed over with Joe Bonamassa playing Cradle Rock on the Rory Gallagher original Stratocaster at the London Hammersmith Apollo on October 21, 2011.
JB is not Rory, and I’ve not come across anyone who can emulate Rory's phrasing or tone. It is good to see the old Fender Strat still pumping out notes. It is wonderful to watch Joe playing Rory's Strat. A Touching Tribute.
Bonamassa says that his body chemistry changed profoundly within seconds of playing the Strat. "Immediately I was in 'Rory mode,'" he states. "The pinch harmonics, the feel of the neck...there was big 'Wow!' factor.
Lyrics
If I was a cradle, would you let me rock?
If I was a pony, would you let me trot?
If I was an atom, swimmin' in the trees
If I go out my cell phone's dead would you put you dogs on me?
If I was a baby, would you let me fall?
If I was an outlaw, would you have me caught?
If I was a tiger, would you have me caged?
If I was somebody else, would you act your age?
You'll miss out if you're, getting high no thank you
Pray it doesn't happen, this time I'll make you see it
You and I gotta say, this is about me and you, yeah
If I was a nightlight, would you let me see?
If I was anchor, it'd be news to me
If I was a maybe, giving you next call
If I tell you the truth now baby
Listen when I talk
