This woman is so good, the neighbors called the cops, and they brought beer.... Edit: All the thumbs up are a direct reflection of this woman's talent...
This Woman plays with SOUL! But, let’s put distribution money behind Beyswiftspearsancardi🤨 “we know what the people want....now when I snap my fingers; you’ll all wake up with a thirst for Poop radio”!
I love when folks don’t necessarily ‘fit’ the traditional mould in one form or another and subvert the expectation of others. Even better when they hit you square in the face with their exceptional talent. Bravo ma’am ❤️
I know right!!!!!???? When I was in college we went to this bar that did karaoke. So the guy running the karaoke gets up and says, “ now Joe Blow ( can’t recall the name) is going to do Unchained Melody. Everyone at our table kinda groaned and thought whoever attempts this song is going to butcher it!!!!! This little kinda geeky older guy walks up and dedicates the song to his equally awkward date and then he proceeds to absolutely SLAY that song all the while singing to his gal!!!!!! He got a standing O from the whole bar. I’m pretty sure he got lucky that night too😉
Great music can reach the none space and the none time. It's eternal. Bach or Pink Floyd will never die, a beautiful voice will always be a beautiful voice
Back in the 90s went to see Joanna at the Double Door in Charlotte. There was a snow and ice storm... 6 people showed up. Joanna played a full concert like it was 10,000 in attendance. Ever see six people standing on chairs yelling for an encore? ..Which she did. A terrific talent and if you get the chance, do go see her.
I saw Roy Buchanan in the 70s at the Arie Crown Theater in Chicago 5,000 seat venue maybe 50 at the show. He called us all down to the front and played foe 3 hrs.
Saw her in Delrey FL in about '95. Full house and she blew the roof off. No lack of energy at her shows. If you get the chance to see and hear her, run , do not walk, run to the show.
@@JimCarty With this video, I say She is definitely far far way better than any live electric guitar show performer. She Makes the guitar shriek and cry...sexy!
Yes Sir! 🤦♀️ So that flew right on over your head, huh? Dude, she’s a goddess, no matter what she happens to weigh. You (and I) aren’t worthy to shine her shoes, let alone comment on her damn weight. What if she reads that unkind shit comment of yours? Gtfoh!
@Jim McCracken Re your "...not the former POTUS..." Stop it! You're cracken me up! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! (Sorry, ain't 'Net-savvy - - - don't know how to say LOL) 😆😅😂😆👏 HC-JAIPUR (12/Nov/2018)
If you saw this woman in a supermarket would you give her a second glance? You never know who has an incredible talent and you can't judge by appearance.
I just said the same thing. I eat that kind of stuff up. Even better when it comes from someone who displays an incredible amount of modesty and humility despite an insane amount of talent.
Joan - I wonder if it has something to do with being the wrong demographics? In any event, it don’t matter TV is obsolete - social media is where it’s at. These guys got 6.5 million views so far.
Now this is real blues - if people listened to more music than political shit the world would be a much better place - music soothes the soul baby yeah!
Only a few times in my life have I been moved like I was moved when I heard this piece. Joanna Connor and the band are Amazing!!!!!........I'm Speechless!!!
So great when you discover a “new” gem of an artist like Joanna. I’m listening to this performance in NW London with Covid in Spring of 2022. I may have lost my sense of taste when it comes to food … but not when it comes to musicianship of this rare quality and true originality ! Mind blowing! How come I’ve never heard of her ? She is better than 99% of “renowned” guitarists . Up there with Hendrix perhaps ?!?!? Wow 🤩
Gotta hit the streets of Chicago, so I've heard. She brings the pavement up on into the Heavens. Her slide is bar-none anything but... the best I've ever heard.(heurd!) Much love ALL! Is it Memorex? Crack, shatter...dayum another window??
Love the drummer, into the vibe with passionate antics, a wonderful performer, even when not actually drumming, and and excellent drummer !!!! Thank you
@@waynewilliams3380 There's something that just seems _right_ about a drummer with a traditional grip. Not even sure why I like it so much. And oh yeah, he definitely he put his own rhythm & soul into this classic! And Joanna 😳... hard to find the correct words to describe her skills.
I'm in Australia, was talking with a friend in Boston about bonnie raitt...she sent me this. I'm in awe! I've never heard someone sound so much like her. I'm stunned. this Joanna lady should be in a recording studio, or a hall of fame somewhere. insanely talented, and she's got a new Australian fan base right here now.
Oh my goodness! This was posted up in 2014 and I've only just found it 2019. If they do gigs I want to go. What talent; far better than what we hear on the radio.
I don't know if she is still out doing gigs or not but she use to play quite a bit around the midwest. I saw her a few times including one opening for Buddy Guy, in Des Moines Iowa.
This is simply incredibly talented guitar playing. My jaw dropped to the floor when she just kept getting more and more active wringing every thing that guitar could give. Thank you made my day.
Jaime Alonzo Yeah man. It's not the regular everyday American people who makes up these Spanish names for the bad $#!T that their Researchers and Scientist have either "Discovered or Concocted", to further "Rob and Control" the Spanish Speaking "Americans", (as both the North and South Continents are the Americas.) It's the Social Elite who actually OWN "The United States of America Inc."... and so it's their lies, meddling, and their "Military, Industrial Complex", (also owned and operated by them), that dictates what is White, and thereby Right...and what is "Non-White"...Ha Ha Ha!!! 💯% NON-SENSE
@Jaime Alonzo Jamie you need to study the Great USA---no one works to keep the brown man down---the actions of a lot of brown men are keeping the brown man down.
Quarantine: restrict movement of sick people Tyranny: restrict movement of healthy people CV19 is just a common cold and flu virus with no influenza-like pandemic potential. They inject it as a retro virus in the annual flu shots. Retro virus means it sleeps in your body for a while so that when you catch it, you don't connect it to the flu shots and then they tell you it's "corona virus" which is just the FLU. You can look at old spray bottles of Lysol from 10 years ago and on the back it says in small print: "kills corona virus".........ITS THE FLU. They are using this "scamdemic" propaganda to put everyone in fear so they can control them and then eventually, they are gonna force everyone to take a "COVID" vaccine which will cull the population. They won't allow you to buy, sell or work without this genocidal vaccine. People need to WAKE UP and stop supporting this propaganda. Stop wearing these communist muzzle showing submission to these lying tyrant billionaires that bribe and control the government like puppets. They are all putting on an ACT.

Early 2000's I was in Chicago at Buddy Guys Legends hopping to see him, however., This lady came on and blew my mind. I have followed her progression ever since.
This is the talent our children need to be exposed to! Real music that you feel in your soul. The type of talent that gives you chills when you listen to it. I would be proud to have them play in my backyard. Neighbors be damned.
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!! Joanna Connor, you are incredible!!!! Thank you for sharing your gift with us and for allowing this video to go public!!! God Bless You!!!
Jim you're the best thing to happen for this amazing blues singer player Joanna Connor. God Bless you. Joanna Connor been around for over 25 years, she has 12 albums, but it's this video that is getting her recognized to the masses.. finally. Joanna you are truly great at what you do, and I am going shopping for you music, thank you for staying at it all these years. Thank you
To the ones who left "thumbs-downs", Is everything ok at home ? Do you need to talk ??.. Or, are you just more of a Justin Bieber or Bill Anderson fan ?
HOW could anyone give this a thumbs down? Wandered in here accidentally cuz I sneezed while trying click something else and now I'm going looking for more of her. Best accidental click EVER :) If they gave this a thumbs down guess they dont know real talent when they see it and hear it
Bandit Aviation So it's cool to take satirical, tongue-in-cheek kidding as "bullying" ?? ..OK, got it. - With your magnetic sense of humor, I'm guessing your your friend thinks you are a real joy to hang out with.
Bandit Aviation LOL! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and insight. Now, if you could just apply that analytical prowess to guessing weight too, you could pursue an exciting and lucrative career in the carnival !
I saw this a few years ago and was blown away! If only the music industry wasn't so intersted in the quick buck with manufactured rubbish more talented artists would be given the spoylight. This lady is a genius who deserves the recognition she & all the true artists deserve! 👍👍👍👍👍
That's just part of the music industry, like McDonald's is just part of the food service industry. There's a huge number of extremely talented, internationally recognized actual musicians out there and most of them would probably prefer to avoid the particular spotlight you're talking about because it cheapens their work. Not every group of people that gets together to make music is going to make it, though, and many aren't even trying to. My father in law lives in a tiny village in Slovakia and he turns me on to obscure US musicians I've never even heard of, like Reverend Peyton.
@@barrybrownless4704 Anytime. Always happy to spread the good tunes. Some other good musicians you may or may not have heard of are Pokey Lafarge (Central Time), The Delta Bombers (The Wolf), Sweet Sunny South (I'm Satisfied) and Kitty, Daisy and Lewis (Polly Put the Kettle On).
@@Im_With_Stupid thanx will check them out, try mostly autumn if you've not heard of them they're a folk rock band 👍, once again thanx for the recommendation.
Love it when I see a woman with so much talent. Love her voice and her guitar playing is out of this world. I never expected this. I am dumbfounded ! All I can say is WOW !
Holy Shit! Why haven't I ever heard this lady play. She plays the hell out of her guitar and sing so great! I love the frickin blues,never heard of her. But I'll remember her from now own!
I’ve seen many of her videos. They never show up on my recommend videos I just have to search. My guess is she doesn’t fit the mold of what most musicians look like on RUclips. I know it’s rude to say it but I get recommended for tons of young musicians all the time. I basically watch these type videos all the time but she is never recommended. It may be just me but that’s my opinion and experience. She’s absolutely awesome on guitar
this is absolutely fantastic she's soo good i got tears in my eyes never heard anything like this i hope more people will hear this 1 millions thumbs upp
I'm so glad Joanna is reaching new ears through RUclips. She was always one of my favorites when she did gigs here in South Florida in the late 1980s-90s. She tore it up every time.
I was 15yrs old in '91 and saw her perform at the SF Blues Fest. She's one of the reasons I went back the next year and almost every year after for the next 10yrs. To this day I'm still going to blues shows and always hoping to find an artist that'll blow me away today the way she blew away that crowd. Pretty sure she performed Walkin' Blues back then. Stunning talent. Thanks for posting this video.
You ma’am, are a singular kicking blues machine! 😢😅😊😂🎉 thanks for allowing me to hear and see you play! Absolutely magical and powerful! You got it, just groove it! Never stop doing what you do!
Seems to me, that she make the drummer sound good... Without her, he would still be in his garage, and I'm not trying disrespect him. She is at another level!
Wow and even more so because her band allows her full reign and offers great support. Well done guys that is what true musicians are and what sets you apart.
I went to Kingston Mines in Chicago and saw this woman for the first time. I had no expectations but the show she put on was truly the best I have ever been to and I have been to many arena filled concerts. To be in the first couple of rows of a small venue and listen to this woman rip was an EXPERIENCE. Honestly the video does not do it justice. I go see her every time I am in Chicago and occasionally I go two nights in a row.
In previous years you my lady would have been cast as a witch, that raw talent is total witchery of the strings, just bloody awesome. As a drummer, I love the drummer's relaxed play style and timing, great band to boot. Just bloody awesome.
Love this...I like blues espcially being played in the backyards...such talent and what a sound...love it thank you. Keep on playing wherever you may be. Great and fabulous.
Just wahhhhhouuuu !!! As we say in Provence "I felt down to my bom". My goodness this woman is incredible. I love it. They are all good musicians but SHE IS COSMIC ! 💫💫✨✨👌💚💛❤️
This lady is so awesome. I can’t even imagine the giganticness of this performance happening on a 12x12 stoop behind my garage. These cats belong in front of a sold out amphitheater. 👍👍👍
Nah, once the music companies got a hold of them, it'd be all over; look what happened to Elvis. They're so great because they're playing for the love of it and because they're independent.
I am in Australia Queensland I love Blue's and rockabilly. This lady and band ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.Just BRILLIANT
This woman is so good, the neighbors called the cops, and they brought beer....
Edit: All the thumbs up are a direct reflection of this woman's talent...
Call the cop to bring more beer its gonna be a good long night! 😃
Someone bring a contract...I’ll bring more beers from the UK
This Woman plays with SOUL! But, let’s put distribution money behind Beyswiftspearsancardi🤨 “we know what the people want....now when I snap my fingers; you’ll all wake up with a thirst for Poop radio”!
So good they arrested the caller!!!
I would too.
Oh my goodness. I was blown away. Joanna is the real deal.
That's what I like, A lady who takes the lead! Such awesome and amazing talent!
I love when folks don’t necessarily ‘fit’ the traditional mould in one form or another and subvert the expectation of others. Even better when they hit you square in the face with their exceptional talent. Bravo ma’am ❤️
Absolutely! She knows her vibration for sure!!
Double Bravo!!!
@Radiohiljaisuus you are correct. Joanna has been around for a long time. I did not know of her until recently. My loss.
One word describes this…fantastic!
I know right!!!!!???? When I was in college we went to this bar that did karaoke. So the guy running the karaoke gets up and says, “ now Joe Blow ( can’t recall the name) is going to do Unchained Melody.

Proud to have her over in Chicago
There's not enough words to describe her playing. She knows her instrument and can work it. Awesome.
I have one word. WOW!
thats what she said
I know one: Goosebumbs 😉
I am stunned.
Heartfelt!
Don't care if this was posted years ago. It is still relevant to me and always will be because blues renditions like this is eternal. Bravo!🇨🇦
Which also means that music is a kind of eternity in a way. :)
(sorry : english not my firstlanguage)
You mean a Classic! Stuff that remains in the History of Music for Excellence.
So true
Great music can reach the none space and the none time. It's eternal. Bach or Pink Floyd will never die, a beautiful voice will always be a beautiful voice
Good music never becomes irrelevant.

I want this in my yard every friday night.
Absolute legend.
Playing in a backyard and they're better than 99% of today's bands. Of any genre.
You need to get out more...

If you saw this woman in a supermarket would you give her a second glance? You never know who has an incredible talent and you can't judge by appearance.
I go to the grocery store every week and after 30 years of tryin I still can’t play for shit!!!

Not only she has mastered the guitar but that singing voice,... FANTASTIC!!! Long live BLUES!!!
Everyone in that band played that backyard like it was a million buck venue. Those are pros.
Would pay to hear them she can play
Actually, they are Pros. Johanna Connor has been performing for years.

Bandit Aviation So it's cool to take satirical, tongue-in-cheek kidding as "bullying" ?? ..OK, got it. - With your magnetic sense of humor, I'm guessing your your friend thinks you are a real joy to hang out with.
Bandit Aviation LOL! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and insight. Now, if you could just apply that analytical prowess to guessing weight too, you could pursue an exciting and lucrative career in the carnival !
Have come back to this multiple times and my smile just gets wider ever time. True blues all around people! Nuff said.
My gosh. Friggin amazing. Her band is IN THE POCKET. I'd go see this live tonight if they were in town.
I saw this a few years ago and was blown away! If only the music industry wasn't so intersted in the quick buck with manufactured rubbish more talented artists would be given the spoylight. This lady is a genius who deserves the recognition she & all the true artists deserve! 👍👍👍👍👍
That's just part of the music industry, like McDonald's is just part of the food service industry. There's a huge number of extremely talented, internationally recognized actual musicians out there and most of them would probably prefer to avoid the particular spotlight you're talking about because it cheapens their work. Not every group of people that gets together to make music is going to make it, though, and many aren't even trying to.
My father in law lives in a tiny village in Slovakia and he turns me on to obscure US musicians I've never even heard of, like Reverend Peyton.
@@Im_With_Stupid thank you for the recommendation for reverand Peyton, he'll be in my cd collection very soon! Once again thanks chap👍
@@barrybrownless4704 Anytime. Always happy to spread the good tunes. Some other good musicians you may or may not have heard of are Pokey Lafarge (Central Time), The Delta Bombers (The Wolf), Sweet Sunny South (I'm Satisfied) and Kitty, Daisy and Lewis (Polly Put the Kettle On).
@@Im_With_Stupid thanx will check them out, try mostly autumn if you've not heard of them they're a folk rock band 👍, once again thanx for the recommendation.
Love it when I see a woman with so much talent. Love her voice and her guitar playing is out of this world. I never expected this. I am dumbfounded ! All I can say is WOW !
My 81 yr old dad sent me this in September. Just now getting around to listening to it. This is one of my new top 10 Blues videos. Awesome...
Your dad sounds cool 😎
DAAAAAAYUMMMMM WOMAN! You WAIL LIKE NO OTHER! Rock on and on and on🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💥💥🥇
Yeah, too right! 👍❤️❤️❤️
she whales to !
I have watched this video lots and lots of time . And I can't get enough. She is awesome love it .❤
Awesome singer and guitar player with an awesome band. It's good to know there are people with beautiful gifts to share with us.
This is the way America should be having a few beers sitting in someone's driveway taking in some bad ass music and loving it
Just saying
✌👉 😎
I grew up with Dad's backyard band every Friday night after payday... god memories.
I did
Amen ...to that!
It should apply to everyone in the world too.
Amen!!!!!!
Holy Shit! Why haven't I ever heard this lady play. She plays the hell out of her guitar and sing so great! I love the frickin blues,never heard of her. But I'll remember her from now own!
This is literally the first time I've ever heard of them!
Debbie Fulton n
I’ve seen many of her videos. They never show up on my recommend videos I just have to search.
My guess is she doesn’t fit the mold of what most musicians look like on RUclips. I know it’s rude to say it but I get recommended for tons of young musicians all the time. I basically watch these type videos all the time but she is never recommended.
It may be just me but that’s my opinion and experience.
She’s absolutely awesome on guitar
Welcome to Chicago...where the delta met the inner city.
This is crazy talent. Why isn’t this incredible woman a household name?? I’m in London and I’ve only just discovered her. Where have I been!!
Sometimes the algorithm messes up and gives a great selection. The whole band is awesome.
this is absolutely fantastic she's soo good i got tears in my eyes never heard anything like this i hope more people will hear this 1 millions thumbs upp
Are you kidding me?! That woman is one hell of a guitar playing momma.
azcharlie2009
Yeah, and she can sing excellent as well!
Big momma is getting it on that slide!!! 🤘🤘
I'm so glad Joanna is reaching new ears through RUclips. She was always one of my favorites when she did gigs here in South Florida in the late 1980s-90s. She tore it up every time.
@@lizardas right?? A true virtuoso...and a remarkable woman..
I was 15yrs old in '91 and saw her perform at the SF Blues Fest. She's one of the reasons I went back the next year and almost every year after for the next 10yrs. To this day I'm still going to blues shows and always hoping to find an artist that'll blow me away today the way she blew away that crowd. Pretty sure she performed Walkin' Blues back then. Stunning talent. Thanks for posting this video.
Absolutely no idea how the hell I got here but I’m not complaining 😃
By the grace of God
I hear ya. But glad i fell into this.
Love the serendipity of RUclips and all the casual contributions. Interweb for good.
Thank you RUclips algorithms for getting 1/100 correct.
Same here! Lol, jam on!
I love youtube cause it's where I come to know fantastic talents like Ms. Connor - you make it snarl real good, M'am!
That is some WICKED guitar playin! Glad I wandered in on it.
Me too...
Every day is full of surprices :)
You ma’am, are a singular kicking blues machine! 😢😅😊😂🎉 thanks for allowing me to hear and see you play! Absolutely magical and powerful! You got it, just groove it! Never stop doing what you do!
Unbelievable! I just happened on to this video, and my heart was blessed!
Much respect to the drummer, without him, those lovely chops the lady is laying down wouldn’t be the same!
Yes indeedy!!!
Seems to me, that she make the drummer sound good... Without her, he would still be in his garage, and I'm not trying disrespect him. She is at another level!
That is a fact.
Seeing how hes wearing an apron he probably works there at the bar b que joint. I betcha 100 bucks the man could make some mean ribs too.
Facts buddy. A band is only as good as its lead singer and its drummer.
"gonna make some noise now" .... and do they ever ... speechless !
You tube has a funny algorithm. But I love when I find true gems like this. Shame I had to wait ten years to see it. ❤. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Wow and even more so because her band allows her full reign and offers great support. Well done guys that is what true musicians are and what sets you apart.
I wept when I saw this. So much talent. Virtuoso guitar. Thank you from a remote part of Australia.
My god!! Just stumbled across Joanna and her band totally awe struck😍
I went to Kingston Mines in Chicago and saw this woman for the first time. I had no expectations but the show she put on was truly the best I have ever been to and I have been to many arena filled concerts. To be in the first couple of rows of a small venue and listen to this woman rip was an EXPERIENCE. Honestly the video does not do it justice. I go see her every time I am in Chicago and occasionally I go two nights in a row.
What a great talent this lady has! Vocals and slide are both fabulous!! Great band!
In previous years you my lady would have been cast as a witch, that raw talent is total witchery of the strings, just bloody awesome. As a drummer, I love the drummer's relaxed play style and timing, great band to boot. Just bloody awesome.
Holy sht. I had no idea the guitar could be played like THAT. Thank you madam (and gents).
I need neighbors like this 👍
Yes please
Hell yeah me to!!
That Woman Can Play
Hell ya! Me to!🤩
Amen!
Amazing! Great vocals and guitar skills! You guys are great!
Love this woman; so talented and skilled with that guitar. Amazing.
Good lord! What an incredible performance 👏 🙌 ❤️
Wow! Love this; what a performance! Take a bow, indeed!!
WOW, I love this. The blues just speak to me. She's great!
She amazes with her voice but much more for her fingers running all over the deck producing great music 👍🎉
I got one word - Incredible!!! She knocks it out of the park!!! Very well done 👏!! 👏!!!
Wow! she has an amazing voice, what a great guitar player!
My first experience with this band...WOW ! So much talent around that I din't know about...
absolutely pure magic.. what a performance..and a great band...everybody was top notch...and that sound ..cherrs guys all the best from scotland.
.
Love this...I like blues espcially being played in the backyards...such talent and what a sound...love it thank you. Keep on playing wherever you may be. Great and fabulous.
Just wahhhhhouuuu !!! As we say in Provence "I felt down to my bom". My goodness this woman is incredible. I love it. They are all good musicians but SHE IS COSMIC ! 💫💫✨✨👌💚💛❤️
This lady is so awesome.
I can’t even imagine the giganticness of this performance happening on a 12x12 stoop behind my garage. These cats belong in front of a sold out amphitheater. 👍👍👍
Nah, once the music companies got a hold of them, it'd be all over; look what happened to Elvis. They're so great because they're playing for the love of it and because they're independent.
Yes indeed they do!
Dozer1642 hell yes!
Dozer1642 you are so wrong. That can’t be bigger than 10 x 10. But you are right about the amphitheater.
Don't forget about the drummer ...thumbs up
Ya that's an awesome drummer no doubt
He really is good.
He's amazing.
Drummer dude is awesome!!!!
and I will tell you why...he is completely in control. He could totally overplay, steal the show etc. because he is a beast, but he doesn't.
Wow you could play with the best of them,!!!! I had such a smile I was crying...
OMG that's wicked, i'm so loving this tune, and her guitar playing is off the charts
