Sue est une artiste méconnue bourrée de talent. Je l'ai découverte il y a peu de temps et j'adore son style. Sa beauté n'a rien à envier à sa dextérité. 🥰👏
I just heard this wonderful lady about a month ago. Looks like I got a lot of catching up to do. And what a treat for these old eyes. She's got it all.
A natural blueswoman ! Great Sue ! MV
Sue is absolutely brilliant. Soulful and a real artist. I hope she gets more recognition as she deserves it 🌹❤️🎶
No one like Sue. Have followed her for a long time. She works hard and deserves way more recognition for her talent
Beautiful lady sings the Blues...how I love this!!
Awesome
Sue is a top rated blues artist . She has it all going on .
I love it when she plays this guitar and sings the foundational songs of the blues and rock and roll. Transports me to another time but makes me feel so connected to it. Her voice is awesome. So underrated as a guitarist. Does more than one style and totally feels the blues in her single note and double stop phrases.
Beautiful lady with a beautiful sound !!!!❤
Never heard of Sue but really liked this. That voice just comes out with no effort it seems. She is fantastic.
I love her playing and singing ❤❤❤❤❤
Sue is still beautiful in every way.
How come I never heard of her before? Awesome!❤
Sue Foley and Carolyn Wonderland are Texas blues!
She's is is growin on me every day as one of the great modern blues players
Love me some Sue Foley
She is a really good musician!!❤
Sue is an exceptional artist...💘💘
Absolutely class, love that she’s jamming a nylon great vocalist too
I love her guitar playing, but what a great vocalist! Her debut album is still one of my favorites!
Her singing has improved from her younger days.
Very cool interview and performance...nice to hear her in an intimate, solo setting, including the nylon string.
I've been following her career for over 3 decades, having first seen her as a teen, up in Edmonton.
She could always play really well, right from that period, but her voice and writing have really blossomed, over the years.
Thanks!
Thanks what a great interview Sue hope you do some more and maybe some tutorials I’ve been playing 12 yrs and love learning new stuff
True Artist!...Love her playing and singing!
❤
Love it
The earlier we go into the blues, the cooler it gets.
This was definitely great. Thanks.
Another awesome Southern Blues video ... thanks for sharing this with us
She’s Canadian
I guess I've been living under a rock. What a wonderful and pleasing surprise.
splendide

Sue Foley GODESS 🔥
Wow! Amazing playing and an incredible voice to boot! Thanks for sharing this, it was wonderful to watch. Now I need to go listen to everything she's done :-)
Sue is one of the best current Blues Artists! See a live show if you get the chance.
Awesome guitarist and blues player, I love her lead phrasing and technique
I swear, this lady does NOT age! She looks great!
Soulful
Sweet!
Great voice.
That was great, thanks.
Sr. Mtr. Blues 😊
I saw Sue Foley and her band about 15 years ago at The North Star Bar in Philadelphia. Her Tele was buzzing up a single coil storm but Sue was great. She' the real deal. She's Sue Ann Barton with serious guitar chops.
Lou Ann calls "little sister"
Have known about her for about 30 years; she is the real deal.
wow, fantastic artist! what a voice
Wow!
So great. I would have guessed she is from the deep south, say Georgia, Texas and the like.
Authentic.
Seriously, this woman should be a professor!
She was an Assistant Professor at Catawba College in North Carolina for awhile...
@@kitano0 I had a feelin'! Thanks for the info!👍
No entendí lo que canta por que no hablo inglés pero me pareció una interpretación muy hermosa 😮 te envío un saludo desde la ciudad de México y por supuesto mí like
Even better now
💙
I just reckon she’s the most under recognised guitarist on the planet. How can that be?
I would love to have lessons with you...is there any way? On line?
I live in South Africa and can play some acoustic guitar but want to learn
Subbed👍🏼
👍💚😎
If you want to hear Sue do a great cover of a great song check out Positively Fourth Street off Back to the Blues. Raw and stripped down version more in tune with the harsh lyrics than Bob Dylan's original and I love Bob Dylan's version, just not as much as I love Sue's
,
Anybody know the make of the amp behind Sue about 4.20 mins in with the controls on the front and the VOX type cloth underneath please...Dave in Manchester, UK.
1977 Dumble Overdrive Special
@@midwestfisherman Thank you so much will check it out.
It's spelled "flair"
Thanks! Although she is on fire;)
If the REAL composer (Tommy Johnson !) had been credited, that video would be much nicer !
This was one of two songs recorded by Mattie in the 1930’s... Her song "Down the Big Road Blues" is a variant of Tommy Johnson's "Big Road Blues". They share a similar chorus “I can't go down that big road by myself
I can't go down that big road by myself
If I can't carry you, I carry someone else” Cheers!
@@SongbirdsFoundation You're right! My first comment was somewhat uselessly angry
Serge Ceyral Cheers! We added it to the description because it is pretty interesting 😄
