... this was my first time seeing Samantha when i filmed this show. I had no idea who she was at the time. Up until this song, i was impressed with what she was putting down; however, when this song was played, i knew she was going to be a star. Still one of my favorite live recordings that i have filmed.
... when i was recording this song, i had never heard of Samantha Fish until this night at Callahan's. I wasn't sure what to expect. Prior to this song, I was impressed with her show so far ... but when she played this, one of my favorite songs, I knew i was watching someone special. I have seen her a dozen times since that first night, but never has she played this song again. Makes this recording even more of a treasure. Thanks for watching and your continued support.
I love her voice, it is transcendent. She has complete command of where she wants it to go and it takes her there flawlessly every single time. Susan Tadeschi blew me away when I saw her and Derek one summer, but Samantha's voice, punctuated by a guitar virtuosity that she reigns over like the goddess that she is, leaves me in a place where I can't find the words to describe what she has done to my soul. I just know that when I come back down to Earth, I feel more than alive. I then can't wait to hear her voice again and have my spirit lifted even higher. This is, for me, exactly what music is supposed to do and Samantha does it for me like no one else, with every breath of life that she gives to every word she sings and every note she plays. I've been listening to music for 56 years and I now know that there won't ever be a voice I'll want to hear more than that of Samantha Fish.
beeeeautifully said! I love your Susan reference, this song is a lil different than her own stuff, vocally anyway, more in Susan's range 🥰🥰 Very well said, I agree Miss Fish is crazy crazy perfect, food for the soul, ALLLL the parts.
It's the curse of the blues. If you've ever seen Clapton playing straight blues, it's obvious how much more he likes blues than rock but the rock has been playing some big bills for him for a long time.
Lisa Colbert Having met her a few times since I first posted this comment, I think that you have got it banged to rights. She is incorruptible.She does what she wants, and plays to what she believes her fan base wants, and I think that she has got it exactly right.
I love Samantha's "guitar face".That's what we call the open-mouthed, tongue-stuck-out-of-the-corner look a guitarist gets when the riff is really good and they're way into it and she's got it bad. Correction, she's got it good 'cause that's when you get the best music. Watch. You'll see, I'm right.
You can learn to play the guitar and sing but that type of expression comes from within. When it comes to blues especially, it's everything. There aren't words to describe how good this is.
So,so true..... when it comes to singin and pickin the Blues, she's definitely got soul and expression, she's at the top of the list as a Blues artist. 👍😎
what I dig is the pure raw passion and emotion...the little flub she laughs at at around 7:30ish...yet she is still flawless to me cuz it's all about the feel and just "goin with it"...love it all!!!
I think there were 2 flubs actually, she hit a floor button a tad too soon between her solo and going back to singing. You can hear the guitar mute a bit. I think she could have delayed that tap on the pedal a few seconds and THEN sing again.
No...She is the greatest blues singer of all time, no body has ever sent me like this girl...WOW! and what about the soul in the guitar...true soldier blue blues...,...!
I love how she turns and looks at Go Go and Chris at the end with that "yeah! I just did that!" look on her face! Pure joy when you know you just NAILED IT! Samantha you are absolutely incredible!
... this is one of my top ten videos that i've filmed by any artist. I knew it was a classic when i was filming it. Had never heard of Sam until this night.
Is there something on my mind Samantha yes how bluesy are u your guitar playing is second to none, your songwriting is sublime and your incredible voice it is so beautiful I know u will keep on making great music Samantha. You are a blues legend already!
... thank you for watching this ''classic'' video. This was my first time seeing Samantha and had no idea who she was when i entered the club to watch the show and film her that night. I was enjoying her performance and the songs, but it wasn't until she played this song, that i knew she was going to be a force on the blues scene.
Eish. This was done 7 years ago when she was only 24 and her playing has developed so much since. I just love her music. Just WOW Pity her current producers are want to "smooth out" her sound, making her more user friendly
My mom listened to her a lot, shes gone now. I didnt really listen to samantha fish really so i looked through her songs an am pretty surprised she does this song because its one of my favorite tunes. An shes playing in Michigan where im from.
... this was my first time seeing Samantha. She played this song half-way through her set, and it was this song that i realized this girl is going to be a star and a force to reckon with. Thank you for watching and your comment.
I remember bagels and bluegrass on Sunday mornin at the Floodzone in Richmond. And also bloody’s. Saw bill monroe there one Sunday morning. This woman rivals them all!
I’ve got a RUclips playlist for S. Fish with over 50 songs. This is my favorite song. I get a kick out of her catching and laughing off her slight flub between 7:35-7:45 mark. As great as she is she’s only human. The combination of her singing and playing though is 🤯😎🫨
May I say this is one of the best recordings from her that I have heard on RUclips? I really love her voice but many times it is not clear in other recordings, which is a shame. The combination her singing and guitar playing is incredible and unique.
Bluzdudemi's videos of Callahan's 3/30/2013 Sam at work are the best. Excellent clean, crisp, well-balanced job on the board by Peter Jay, and Bluzdedemi go that audio right through the camera in such sweet shape. This has become one of my all-time favorites of Samantha Fish, along with "Mr. Siegal" from same show.
... I'm glad you enjoyed the videos that i shot from that show. Keep in mind the audio runs from my video camera, though the room sounds excellent because of soundman Peter Jay.
Bluzdudemi, Thanks for the reply, I always wonder what the source of the sound is in the video. Is it from the camera or is it directly patched in from the stage equipment.
@@bluzdudemi I was (pleasantly) surprised to learn that this audio is directly off cam...I would have suspected/expected it to have been taken from the board. As an "old hand" with considerable ball-room experience (Avalon, + Family Dog Productions, S.F., Ca. '70's--early 80's) we always attempted to pirate audio from Bob and Betty Matthews' (Alembic Sound) mixing board. The new digital electronics are superior, of course, but still require a skilled hand on the throttle! (and good vid gear!) Peter Jay has a good "hand" and even tho the "room" has good acoustics, his clear, crisp "grabs" appeal to my "ear." I'd much rather have a "clean" sound where vocals can be understood and the lead instrument(s) can sing out than a "muddied" bass-heavy "thump" which not only "clips" but distorts most of the important higher-ranges of the spectrum. Hats off and kudos to Peter Jay on a difficult job executed well. But I was sure disappointed to learn that Callahan's is shuttering! Maybe someone else will pick up the mantle--it's for sure a good sounding venue!
I would not lie. I have to hear this tune every single day since Christmas 2017 when I first heart it on youtube. I love it so much and her raw emotion just brings me inside of hear beautiful heart as she jams out so perfect. SAM you are so great with all your work. Thank You for choosing this path in life and sharing it with a world that needs some healing and kindness like the kind you share on the stage. Love you and the group Gene istre.
Onliest thing about this song and something about the way Sam sings and plays Is: they's somethin' wrong if each and every one, doesn't hope and wonder who …and I know I do … is that someone who is singin' this song for you. That's what's called the Blues.
Now THIS is the bluesy Samantha Fish I love. Not the loud rock metal commercial sounding band of 2024.
Correct :)
I got tired of all those blues guitar heroes running up and down the frets just to say nothing but this woman brought back the thrill.
Yes!!!!
instablaster.
Yip I saw Joe bonnamassa here in Scotland so disappointing
If i could give this song 1000 likes, I would !!!
... this was my first time seeing Samantha when i filmed this show. I had no idea who she was at the time. Up until this song, i was impressed with what she was putting down; however, when this song was played, i knew she was going to be a star. Still one of my favorite live recordings that i have filmed.
Each and every time I listen to Samantha sing this song, I truly feel, she is one of the Greatest Blues artists on the planet!!!

No offence to those who did this song before her....even B.B King and Miss Etta James but she took an ordinary song and made it extraordinary!
only 22 years old...she's going to take the blues world by storm.
31 now and still being a badass guitarist/singer
You were correct
Amazing perfect!!! Every note played with her soul, and technically sophisticated.
Respect to the sky - one in a million.
Am I the only one to get tears of JOY listening to this woman voice?
nope :)
Samantha has an excellent blues voice, the emotion comes through just like it does in her guitar playing. She's phenomenal!
@Goggle products In your twisted dreams. It wouldn't matter if she was. You're an idiot.
@Goggle products What an ignorant thing to say.
yes, you're the only crybaby
Ive heard of her before. But this.. this got in my soul. Guitar solo was something else. And so much pain in her voice... Great great job
Love this - she’s the total package! 👩 🎸 🎤
Sings like Joplin came back, plays like nobody else, ever.
Fucking amazing!
I love her voice, it is transcendent. She has complete command of where she wants it to go and it takes her there flawlessly every single time.

68 yrs for me, and I agree, no one else I'd rather hear
beeeeautifully said! I love your Susan reference, this song is a lil different than her own stuff, vocally anyway, more in Susan's range 🥰🥰 Very well said, I agree Miss Fish is crazy crazy perfect, food for the soul, ALLLL the parts.
With that being said..... She's a goody good girl ❤️💫🎶🎵
You nailed it buddy.
I get goosebumps every time I watch this video.
She does have that special something, like an uncut stone
You just got to know she loves the music that spills from those fingers and she is committed to perfection!
Best thing to do for this song is........hit replay.
put on your Bose 700 headphones first though
I want you to know your the first since Stevie Ray That has got my attention
Hendrix ,Joplin recantation. Beautiful artist. Love ya
Damn! this girl is something else.
Samantha Fish is on my bucket list.
That is what "Giving it all you got." Looks like.
WHY is this girl not more well known? She is fabulous.
It's the curse of the blues. If you've ever seen Clapton playing straight blues, it's obvious how much more he likes blues than rock but the rock has been playing some big bills for him for a long time.
Or maybe because she's incorruptible ?
Lisa Colbert Having met her a few times since I first posted this comment, I think that you have got it banged to rights. She is incorruptible.She does what she wants, and plays to what she believes her fan base wants, and I think that she has got it exactly right.
Because she's not an auto tune using pop diva
Chris Stokes you look like someone I met at a music festival in missouri, wasn't you was it?
Samantha Fish is a national treasure.
This girl is good.. I believe she is the best guitar woman player I ever seen..
Sam at her absolute brilliant best!!
2022 and still love it!!
Sam is a rock star.
She is the most talented bluesartist since long time ago, i am impressed.
I love Samantha's "guitar face".That's what we call the open-mouthed, tongue-stuck-out-of-the-corner look a guitarist gets when the riff is really good and they're way into it and she's got it bad. Correction, she's got it good 'cause that's when you get the best music. Watch. You'll see, I'm right.
that happens when you put your all into it.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
We call it “stank” face! All the greats have it!
'Open-mouthed', yes, but she didn't stick her tongue out once - you've imagined that, lol
this f..... awesome girl!
Samantha,you made me feel the blues! You are magnificate!!!!
My Lady Sam, forever. 👍
That guitar solo always brings tears to my eyes...
Same here!
Hands down a true musucian and a voice thats timeless.... this girl got ' it'
Come back to this Sammy.
You can learn to play the guitar and sing but that type of expression comes from within. When it comes to blues especially, it's everything. There aren't words to describe how good this is.
The best Cover ever. Fantastic.
So,so true..... when it comes to singin and pickin the Blues, she's definitely got soul and expression, she's at the top of the list as a Blues artist. 👍😎
Dammit, she always kills it! Leaves me soul stirred every time. Never fails to satisfy.
Samantha is the best fish in the world.
what I dig is the pure raw passion and emotion...the little flub she laughs at at around 7:30ish...yet she is still flawless to me cuz it's all about the feel and just
"goin with it"...love it all!!!
Kim Steele
she pulled that "flub" off like a pro. i liked the way she just laughed about it also. just too cool.
Yes! It's even lovely moving!
I think there were 2 flubs actually, she hit a floor button a tad too soon between her solo and going back to singing. You can hear the guitar mute a bit. I think she could have delayed that tap on the pedal a few seconds and THEN sing again.
I’ve been following Samantha on RUclips for a bunch of years now and this is definitely my favourite line up
O my god, wonderfull! How did i not know her before? Im in love with her voice!
No...She is the greatest blues singer of all time, no body has ever sent me like this girl...WOW! and what about the soul in the guitar...true soldier blue blues...,...!
Wow it's real blues I like it
This , This, This performance is soooooo simply EPIC!!!!!!!!
Not only all of this, but she writes some great songs, too.
so much emotion, it's simple, groovy, clear sound, blues
Thats the kind of passion a person only feels......when there is a Snickers bar melting in your back pocket!!
COVER? She owns every song she plays and sings.....
Cover....she didn't write this one, unfortunately, but IMO it is the best version I've heard of it
So beautiful and epic at that omfg . the queen of blues. holey hell wish she was mine....
I love how she turns and looks at Go Go and Chris at the end with that "yeah! I just did that!" look on her face! Pure joy when you know you just NAILED IT! Samantha you are absolutely incredible!
Incredible moment in time and they were right there with her for the ride. Very special
You have to love Samanthas three piece band.
Lotta talent in that package. Very impressed.
Absolutly a Great Cover. So much Feeling and Emotions. One of my Fav. Tunes from Samantha.
Possibly the greatest blues singer of all time...I don't give that title without a lot of thought my dear!.
I hadn't googled Sam in a while and when I did, this gem awaited.
What an amazing woman.
... this is one of my top ten videos that i've filmed by any artist. I knew it was a classic when i was filming it. Had never heard of Sam until this night.
Blues on a Sunday morning. Thank you Samantha.
Is there something on my mind Samantha yes how bluesy are u your guitar playing is second to none, your songwriting is sublime and your incredible voice it is so beautiful I know u will keep on making great music Samantha. You are a blues legend already!
I wish you knew what’s on my mind Samantha ❤
This womans voice guitar makes my ❤️ check out her and buddy guy wow going down slow fav
... thank you for watching this ''classic'' video. This was my first time seeing Samantha and had no idea who she was when i entered the club to watch the show and film her that night. I was enjoying her performance and the songs, but it wasn't until she played this song, that i knew she was going to be a force on the blues scene.
She can play the Guitar, she even played when she was 3 Years Old, really true. She played the D,C & A, Amazing so Young. So yes, She is Fabulous !!!!
Love, love ,love this... I never get tired of listening to her music.. My favorite 😍 😍👍👍🌺🌺
Traces of Etta James, Janis Joplin, and Bonnie Raitt, yet her own style and voice. Damn, I love her!
and a little Susan Tedeschi
comparisons are so lame , "damn I love her" was all you needed to say
Well said!!
I have just cottoned onto Samantha fish and have been on catch-up for some months...what a heartbreaker!
Just simply Awesome! ❤
Eish. This was done 7 years ago when she was only 24 and her playing has developed so much since. I just love her music. Just WOW
Pity her current producers are want to "smooth out" her sound, making her more user friendly
She just slayed me again. Wow. She should be a massive star.
Seen her play almost any genre. Can't put her in a genre box. Awesome!!!
awesome blues musician-so glad to see so many young talented musicians in the blues
Nothing but true talent goose bumps
And she is a drummer....love this girls love for the blues...
Thanks Sam....
I always come back to this one. it's the sincerest form of flattery to be thought of. plus it's a great combination. they are a great band
Likewise. Lost count of how many times I've watched this amazing performance.
7 or 8 years ago when I first heard this women I was hooked love her and her music
I love every song i've heard from this woman. But this song here Hits my heart every single time I hear it...
This is a virtuoso blues performance. Seriously awesome chops.
Yes, I would understand, Sam you punch me in the heart
This song just melts me all over.🔥🤩💖 Wish I had musical talent even a fraction of that!!
I discovered Samantha Fish & I'm addicted NOW!! She's a 1 of a KIND!! #RedheadFishhead
My mom listened to her a lot, shes gone now. I didnt really listen to samantha fish really so i looked through her songs an am pretty surprised she does this song because its one of my favorite tunes. An shes playing in Michigan where im from.
Lots of deep emotional feelings ... great blues!
Shes got that fish sign on her guitar broken as she mentioned it in Gear rundown video. Also awesome performance, Samantha is the blues!
LOVE Samantha Fish !!!
Just awesome plain and simple really really nice soothing sound love it.
That was outstanding!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏...
... this was my first time seeing Samantha. She played this song half-way through her set, and it was this song that i realized this girl is going to be a star and a force to reckon with. Thank you for watching and your comment.
@@bluzdudemi Yeah! That's true! And you are welcome!
the drummer really understands to undertone her feelings! yeah! so nice
I miss her red hair and blue jeans.
I remember bagels and bluegrass on Sunday mornin at the Floodzone in Richmond. And also bloody’s. Saw bill monroe there one Sunday morning. This woman rivals them all!
This reminds me of a female version of the late great Stevie Ray Vaughn, I'll bet he's smiling down :-)
Tom Scribner that is the best compliment you could give and true!
I love that with her right hand she uses both her guitar pick and finger picks while playing her solos.
Thanks bluzdudemi for putting this on RUclips, I have listened to it every day since the first time I heard it.
I’ve got a RUclips playlist for S. Fish with over 50 songs. This is my favorite song. I get a kick out of her catching and laughing off her slight flub between 7:35-7:45 mark. As great as she is she’s only human. The combination of her singing and playing though is 🤯😎🫨
Hope Samantha and her band do a West Coast tour. Would love to hear her belt this out from the front row! You can't disguise authentic passion.
May I say this is one of the best recordings from her that I have heard on RUclips? I really love her voice but many times it is not clear in other recordings, which is a shame. The combination her singing and guitar playing is incredible and unique.
Like it very much. Great artistry.
this chick can certainly play a guitar, great heartfelt singing too.
I thought I didn't want the last beer from the fridge... but now I have to go out and take it...

I listen to this video at least daily
Like you say, every day, but ….there are so many good video’s of ‘the queen of the blues’…I can not play every good capture of Sam every day😂 😂😂

What an incredible guitar player. A new fan here!
Great Blues! I can believe she doesn't fill stadiums.
I think I have a girl crush!!! DOH!!
