    This self-taught, self-made woman, is a supremely talented performer, writer and musician, with a luxurious contralto voice. At 70, after 50+ years of concerts and recordings, she's created a body of work that few can rival. Despite that, I believe she's rather forgotten, especially by the mainstream. Of course she's never been for the shallow masses, much too unique and original. I do hope to see her again perform live...if we can ever surmount this damn virus and the damnable resistance to get a simple vaccination...

      I kind of like being among a select group of cognoscenti. She really is unique. I once saw her supporting the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, clearly someone had a sense of humour.
      As it turned out the audience loved her. It turns out that SAHB fans love both theatre and music.

I interrupted her in her dressing room and felt terrible and totally fulfilled. Elated that i came a little closer to this amazing musician who i gave my heart to through the ether. What an amazing time. Heartbroken ofcourse. 😅

She had such a gift... she plays every instrument and wrote and sang all her own songs... She really grew on you... Wonderful listening music... She was hailed as one of the most talented artists in the 70's ... I was 27 years old. GREAT MEMORIES. Thanks JOAN for sharing your talent with all of us ! GAY KIDS followed her all over the USA. The voice of how women really felt.

    First listen to this performance. When Joan finished her first vocal part of "Cool Blue Stole My Heart" I told my wife: "In the studio version - or is it in her live record, can't remember - now comes one of the most beautiful guitar solos I know". And it came again at 11:50 - live, played by Ricky Hirsh - Goose bumps again - 40 years later!

    Love the band, but Joan by herself on guitar is a monster. Her playing on Stepping Out is a revelation in that regard. In a few ways she reminds me of Joni Mitchell - very musical and doing a lot more than just strumming open chords up there. Sounds like she uses alternate tunings too. And of course, they both have such a direct honesty in their lyrics and singing.

    Loved her recordings in mid to late 70’s and got to see her live in Rotterdam in the early 80’s. Somehow I had the impression from her music and album covers that she was possibly a shy person that might not translate into a large (8000 seat) venue. Boy, was I wrong! She walked out and owned the stage all night. Show ended with “Willow” and as the crowd left the arena to the ramp to the train station and even on the train platform the crowd kept singing the last refrain over and over. MAGICAL!
