Recorded at the Leamington Spa Assembly Rooms on the 21st November, 2009. This is a track taken from Joanne's cd, White Sugar. www.joanneshawt... www.myspace.com...
Incredible, awesome! I'm a 63 y/o blues fan, into blues since my teens, growing up on Buddy Guy, Albert, BB and Freddy King, Clapton, Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Otis Rush, Johnny Winter, Albert Collins, and later, Stevie Ray Vaughn. To me, Joanne matches all these legends, right now! Go girl go! Buddy Guy said that every generation blues needs a remarkable player to keep the passion burning........Hendrix, SRV, and way back, Robert Johnson. Miss Joanne may well be the next blues catalyst. Amazing!
Love Joanne with the Les Paul and now with the Strat she continues to kill it. Could be the best I've seen her play. So awesome. You thumbs down people are so out of touch.
I totally agree would like to see her live hope she comes to Denver oi live I WYOMING but I been going to Denver to see alot of concerts see B B king, Buddy guy Joe bonamasa and all all kinds of kick ass concert
Whenever I watch Joanne play I almost think it would be a disservice not to comment on such a great blues performance. Joanne is such an amazing blues guitarist, the blues literally flow out of her. I have never seen the blues interpreted quite like Joanne does. She has created her own amazing style and it works in an almost magical way. It is all hers...she owns it. We certainly will hear much more about Joanne Shaw Taylor in the years to come. Joanne Shaw Taylor has to be the best female blues guitarist in the world today.
Finally something Real. Not the same old sterile cliched' blues licks that some of these too highly rated blues players continually going thru the motions to keep it alive, so they think. It's a raw truthful emotion that only a few get. Jimmy, Stevie etc.. Girlfriend, God bless you. She sounds like she was baptized by the blues and the water is fine...
If in heaven do not play blues, I do not need such a paradise! Thank you, Joanne, you are real star! The art of the great Stevie Ray & Janis continues to live
Right on, Brother! This girl MUST be kept with us, for many, many years! She's amazing! God bless her. What an incredible guitarist...pure hot passion and amazing talent, skill, technique too.
Soooo many great blues players around, these girls are amazing along with the Queen Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi, Carolyn Wonderland, Anna Popovic, Orianthi, the blues are alive,well and in good hands and rock and roll will never die!!!
Jaw dropping. This young guitarist's playing combines grit, passion, agression, feel and speed as well as any Electric Blues guitarist out there. Her playing reminds me a lot of Page. I'm very much looking forward to watching her career.
Her vibrato is second to none, has such a sweetness to it and then she can stab you and drill right into your soul. Little hints of Jimmy Page in Her Style, possibly just influence she has her own style which is amazing the best I have ever heard. Not to mention her amazing Soulful voice in my opinion she belongs to the field of the greatest players ever. I feel She will carry the torch for the Blues. I don't know very much about her except for the videos I've seen but I am completely blown away as a musician guitarist myself this Woman is truly blessed and I can't wait to hear more. Keep giving it to us Joanne we love you.
She's playing a Fender Stratocaster... WOW! I wonder what year she decided to start playing a Gibson Les Paul? I can tell this was recorded 10 years ago or so ... she looks just a little younger in this video and from watching it she is having a good time and enjoying playing that Stratocaster. She is a remarkable guitarist ... so remarkable that she's right up there with players such as Joe Bonamssa, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Samantha Fish ... and you can hear Stevie Ray Vaughn in her guitar skills! FAN-TASTIC Guitarist! I love watching her play because she puts 100% of her feelings and emotions into her playing! 👍👍🤠
I stumbled from JB interview....Wow, so excited about her, she is truly awesome and has probably got better as this is a few years old. I will definitely check her out,
I know she lists SRV, Albert Collins and Jimi as influences, but there's a lot of early Fleetwood Mac in her playing - Peter Green, Danny Kirwan and Jeremy Spencer. She also might be the best female blues singer since JoAnn Kelly and Christie McVie. Love the riff at 6:50. She's touring North America in February, but not coming down South where her musical roots are.
I got here through a Joe Bonamassa interview with her. I hadn't heard of her, but am wondering how I didn't come across her before, she is awesome, I am a fan already. Excellent, great voice and the guitar work fantastic.👌👍
Man, she just gets better and better each time I hear her! The mood here brings me to a Janis Joplin feeling albeit different vocals, savvy loving riffing and in command of every model guitar she's ever played! Somehow though her backup band seems to lack the Motts, but oneday she'll have that too, ''Go On Girlfriend'' you're the ''Real Thing'', and you don't need us to tell you just go on with your ''Bad Self''!
She will be once she gets her vocals down. She is young. She had improved since then. I always said once she got a vocal coach she would be unstoppable. Great voice bit you can't understand a word she says. Glad to hear she got to work on that. I've always felt that the voice is an instrument, if you can't hear the notes, you need to work on your technique . Today,,2022 she is killing it.
Just saw her at Blues under the Bridge in Colorado Springs. She is amazing!! A truly inspiring performance. Just like she does in this clip, she gives it her all every time she is on stage. Love her!
Okay I'm going to admit you're playing and singing has brought tears of joy to my eyes literally intense beyond words. You have moved me got right to my soul And lifted me to places I've never been you are AMAZING!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
THE SONG, "THE BLACKEST DAY," IS MY FAVORITE SONG BY MY ALL TIME FAVORITE MUSICIAN!!! JOANNE'S GUITAR WORK IS KILLER!!! HER VOCALS ARE HOT, SEXY, AND SULTRY!!! I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE BLUES CARAVAN 2013 TOUR FEATURING JOANNE SHAW TAYLOR, BART WALKER, AND JIMMY BOWSKILL. THEY ARE BILLING THE TOUR AS "TOMORROW'S GUITAR HEROES!!!" I LONG FOR THE DAY TO HEAR JOANNE PERFORM THE "BLACKEST DAY" LIVE!!!
you can always tell a natural from the book player joanne is a true soul player far and few are found these days , this artist will play forever from the inside .. my perfect wife lol ..
her phrasing and style in this track reminds me of S.R.V. in tin pan alley. would love to see her cover that track. missed seeing her local, hope she tours soon in uk
This is Jimmy Hendrix and Janis Joplin born anew. I sure the feel that that brought this music about comes from a different source but it's power and lonesomeness is just as raw and true. Love the sound of this artist.

Me 2, but 71. Awesome isn't she. I am amazed and can't understand how I haven't found her before.
She tears up the Blues. Totally owns her guitar. Her voice comes from the earth's core. She is a Blues player and my official fave. Period.
I had to comment...I was floored by this performance.I feel like I was listening to the source.Man such feeling.All I can say is wow!
She plays circles around alot folks I know....outstanding player....and the woman is so easy on the eyes....she is the real deal..
One of the first of the 'new breed' of female blues musicians...and one of the best!
Love Joanne with the Les Paul and now with the Strat she continues to kill it. Could be the best I've seen her play. So awesome. You thumbs down people are so out of touch.

Александр Маслов True!!
Right on, Brother! This girl MUST be kept with us, for many, many years! She's amazing! God bless her. What an incredible guitarist...pure hot passion and amazing talent, skill, technique too.
A proper blues singer and a brilliant guitarist as well.
She is just what we need.
Soooo many great blues players around, these girls are amazing along with the Queen Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi, Carolyn Wonderland, Anna Popovic, Orianthi, the blues are alive,well and in good hands and rock and roll will never die!!!
Without doubt the most soulful woman playing guitar today. It flows through her, like it does with all the great players.
This song moves me and that is what blues/rock is for
Jaw dropping. This young guitarist's playing combines grit, passion, agression, feel and speed as well as any Electric Blues guitarist out there. Her playing reminds me a lot of Page. I'm very much looking forward to watching her career.
She was only 23 here, 38 now and just gets better - awesome!!!
ma favorite young female blues singer n gutarist .. she is the best one ... I love it ☝🏼😍😍😍😍😍
Added to favorites. Really nicely done. Can't fake really good blues!

Lucky you. I would love to after seeing this.
WOW....I stumbled upon her on itunes and was like WOW just WOW...this girl rocks with SOUL!!
I stumbled from JB interview....Wow, so excited about her, she is truly awesome and has probably got better as this is a few years old. I will definitely check her out,
Oh hell yeah!! That girl just tears that Stratocaster up! Doesn't fuck around for one second, just ripping it the whole time.
I know she lists SRV, Albert Collins and Jimi as influences, but there's a lot of early Fleetwood Mac in her playing - Peter Green, Danny Kirwan and Jeremy Spencer. She also might be the best female blues singer since JoAnn Kelly and Christie McVie.

This is on a different level.😊
Well, she keeps the blues alive ! Thank you Jo !
See ya in Wespelaar, Belgium soon ...
Man, she just gets better and better each time I hear her! The mood here brings me to a Janis Joplin feeling albeit different vocals, savvy loving riffing and in command of every model guitar she's ever played!

Just saw her in Laughlin Nev. Amazing talent. Even better live.
Beautiful soul❤
Perfect absolutely perfect!
Lovelly playing... raw and clear and deep.
I love watching her play. Her facial expressions remind me so much of the late, great Albert Collins. And she plays a mean guitar too. :)
I love her "blues soul." I love how she plays blues. Her soul is very strong.
How she's not insanely famous is a mystery to me.
She will be once she gets her vocals down. She is young. She had improved since then. I always said once she got a vocal coach she would be unstoppable. Great voice bit you can't understand a word she says.
Glad to hear she got to work on that. I've always felt that the voice is an instrument, if you can't hear the notes, you need to work on your technique . Today,,2022 she is killing it.
Joanne' s talent is unsurpassed !!
Damn this girl is gonna set that guitar on fire

Apaixonei, sensacional!
That was unbelievable!!
FANTASTICA!!!
Just saw her at Blues under the Bridge in Colorado Springs. She is amazing!! A truly inspiring performance. Just like she does in this clip, she gives it her all every time she is on stage. Love her!
I could watch this vid everyday. Might be a great way to start the day with a cup of coffee.
She adds some Jimmy Page style licks in between all that Collins/SRV style...amazing talent!
Angel of Blues...........truly amazing and inspiring.
Monster talent!!
She’s harnessed the power of Stevie Ray Vaughan, what a legend 👏
