a 64 year old woman tearing it up with just an electric guitar. superb!

[@geoffhummerstone]

+yesTHATironingboard right on

[@valiantvee8516]

Never too old...to SHRED!

[@Hallam001]

That voice! That guitar! Those crocs!

[@jimmycahill6958]

More talent in her little finger than these fly by nights, zero talented twits that kids are listening to now. This lady is a genius.

[@yummymusic7445]

Raw and fantastic! Pure talent and no vocal effects, no band and all class!

[@prashantkotak5181]

What an artist! Underrated, underestimated. She should have been a megastar.

[@edmundsishange3608]

She wouldn't be a megastar because she didn't follow the pigeonhole-ing strategy of record companies, she's essentially genre-less

[@boogieeck]

It's not that she didn't want it. It is that she actively unwanted it.

[@22grena]

Underestimated and under appreciated singer songwriter

[@TheDanwilliams84]

This was an absolutely astonishing performance. Loved it.

[@richalderson6069]

I've never seen her rock this hard before! Awesome performance.

[@MJ.71]

Just Joan and her guitar.... Absolutely fekin awesome performance

[@tomh2007]

I first heard Joan as a child, my parents used to play Drop the Pilot and Willow. Now I’m in my 30s and I listen to Joan to ground myself. Soundtrack to my life.

[@johncurrie6277]

[@saltywisdom]

sit here by myself And you know I love it You know I don't want someone To come pay a visit I wanna be by myself I came in this world alone Me, myself, I I wanna go to China And to see Japan I'd like to sail the oceans Before the seas run dry I wanna go by myself I've just room enough for one Me, myself, I I wanna be a big shot And have 90 cars I wanna have a boyfriend And a girl for laughs But only on Saturdays Six days to be alone With just me, myself, I Me, myself and I Just me myself, I Don't wanna be the bad guy Don't wanna make a soul cry It's not that I love myself I just don't want company Except me, myself, I Me, myself and I Just me, myself, I I sit here by myself And you know I love it You know I don't want someone To come pay a visit I wanna be by myself I came in this world alone Me, myself, I Me, myself, I, me, myself and I Just me, myself, I

[@rascaltheferret]

She’s absolutely brilliant 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@paulconnelly4050]

How cool is Joan Armatrading.

[@Jake-d8d]

The tone on that guitar is beautiful. Joan Armatrading is one of the greatest singer songwriters ever!

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

What model of guitar is Joan playing here ?

[@Jake-d8d]

@@TheHumbuckerboy I would guess a Strat?

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

@@Jake-d8d Not a Fender Strat

[@NeilJ894]

@@TheHumbuckerboy its a Variax, by Line 6. Has lots of modeling built in I think and you can alter the tunings using that switch above the pick guard so you can go instantly from standard tuning to say DADGAD if you want to. Never used one myself but was just reading about it

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

@@NeilJ894 Many thanks .

[@gregmardell6653]

Joan Rock's!!!.

First St Kitts, and then one of Birmingham Perry Barr's finest.

[@guyreadman]

Love you Joan. 2:31 beyond amazing....

[@StarlightWorkshop0z]

love

[@richln9682]

I suppose Joan was never bothered to glam it up enough to be a pop megastar, but what a great performer and writer.

[@edmundsishange3608]

True. She didn't want to be boxed. To be huge she'd have to be either pop, rock, folk or rnb, she couldn't be all of them but Joan just wanted the freedom to sing whatever she liked, whenever she felt like it.

[@SerenDipity64711]

1:51 WOW!!!!!!!!!!

[@williamrae9954]

If the arse falls out the music industry any further,there's always busking...talented lady,and 70yrs old this year

[@tiedupsmurf]

Wow

[@marytresham9164]

Yep

[@monkeytennis2011]

Peak!

[@equaliser2265]

She's enjoying.

[@matnichol]

I knew she was a great singer but I had no idea she could do that with a guitar.

[@MrSonofsonof]

Great voice and totally rocktastic. Would have been better with a band though. I like the way that she is still rocking though. There are a lot of bands from the seventies and eighties still around, but most of them haven't written or recorded anything new in decades, and they look a bit like tribute acts. JA still records a new album every couple of years, and they are still good. I have heard that she might be releasing another one this year, 49 years after her first. Looking forward to it.

[@danburrill8716]

I think that given the song in question, a solo performance is a powerful statement in it's own right.

[@CaitStringer]

Anthem. Thank you.

[@damiancavanagh4257]

Wot a girl! 💟

[@grittsy]

Gee this sounds great. If a kind soul could send me in the direction of the chords she is using.🙏 I can't make them all out. 🤟

[@LaDyMaXx]

Bring on the heavy metal album, Joan! Take my $$$.

[@keithcaldwell7657]

How many of cowells minions could do this so well

[@markw6586]

Thats what she said, end of story!

[@DAS1962]

I am a Joan tragic.. long may she rule
