Trouble Is…  performed in its entirety

Trouble Is… is an astonishingly, powerful collection that features the mega-hit “Blue On Black” which was No. 1 on Mainstream Rock Radio Charts for an astonishing 17 consecutive weeks (breaking records for the most consecutive weeks at # 1) and is, to this day, a staple at rock radio around the globe.

A stinging set of electric blues played with passionate conviction, Trouble Is… features four top ten radio hits including, “Slow Ride”, “Somehow, Somewhere, Someway”, “Everything Is Broken” and of course, “Blue On Black”. This was his second record to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Blues Charts and for nearly two years stayed in the top ten. The album also broke into the Billboard Top 200 as well as the Hot 100.
