    This lady kicks arse, brilliant guitarist, great vocalist.
    It’s a gross miscarriage of justice, when gifted,talented musicians like Joanna Connor don’t get the recognition they truly deserve.

    • @jasstack
      @jasstack 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Some musicians don't want a lot of recognition; they like playing smaller venues and being more intimate with their audiences. I don't know about her of course, just a thought. BTW, she is awesome!

      I think the bass player is holding the band back on this song. When he enters this song, it is at a slightly slower tempo and the band adjusts, but that is not the tempo chosen by the first player when starting the song. she takes a break, restarts at her original tempo, and then the bass player enters and sludges it up again. perhaps the bass player's tempo was selected at practice, I don't know. I'm not asking for a showman, just more artistic involvement verses working as a craftsman.

    This woman is a MONSTER guitarist and a great singer as well. She so far, for most has been a hidden gem, but thanks to the web, more and more are hearing her.
    She has been paying her dues for a long time and deserves a break. It was really good to see her on one of Joe Bonamassa's Blues Cruises, in that Joe with all of his success
    was quick to recognize her incredible talent.

    I stumbled across her a couple of weeks ago and have made it a point to watch every performance I can find.

TH-cam may well have relaunched her career - I certainly hope so - she's incredible.

      She’s great, under appreciated, and EC should have invited her to his festivals. Great job with this old John Lee Hooker’s rhythmic blues classic, adding ZZ Top’s edginess, Magic Slim, a little SRV, and her own bad mama attitude, of course. I wish SRV had lived to jam with her. She’d a pushed him some.

    Heard for the first of this lady back in Bonn, Germany in 1992, when she did some gigs at a small club called Jazzgallerie. It was oustanding - nobody had heard of her ever before, there was some lame applause when the band entered the stage. But after the first song everybody was tuned in. It was a great atmosphere! After the last piece the band had to go right through the audience to reach "backstage" and everybody wanted to shake hands of the musicians or give hugs. There I got her first CD "Joanna Connor Band" and I still listen to it from time to time.
