American radio has made me wish I never heard Free's "Alright Now" ever again because they had so many great songs, this one being at the top of that list. This is an absolutely stunning cover of a forgotten classic.

[@perryreynolds194]

As much as I love Joanne, nothing will be as good as the original Free version

[@michaeldeeley5181]

What a great version of a great song

[@hemulik.8117]

Very very good cover... liking this a lot.. JST and her singing and guitaring.. what's not to like there ? 😊

[@charleshope9929]

Good steal from the , ahem, big lads from Scotland! Brill, as ever JST Ya can't keep a good girl & a good song down. Loved It. Play UK soon?

[@user-sv1bi9bf2x]

Video version or not it's better than most PR live takes as a solo artist!

[@juergeli1]

Joanne NEVER disappoints.🥰

[@wrdlmbrt1956]

I agree 👍 😍

[@timstoker]

This is a great cover best I've heard since Gary Moore covered it. What a great blues voice Joanne has! Now a fan🎸🎸🎸

[@Walesktf]

So many bands have covered this FREE classic. This is the best cover version out there!

[@paulodonoghue3666]

I much prefer Blackfoot's version but each to their own where music is concerned 💙

[@careful...Icarus]

You are very high my friend.

[@felinemad]

Excellent cover Joanne. Always loved this song. Hope it’s on your next album. 🙌🏻👏🏻🎸🎤🥁

[@abhinandanghosh2028]

Joanne you are a great blues guitarist. You are one of my favourite artists.Loved your album Reckless Heart. Wishing you the best and more success. Keep making such great music.

[@olmakaroff]

Queen of the blues-rock! The best!

[@johnwaine56]

Awesome!!! Great to see Sarah Tomek in the JST team too!

[@angelemerald1]

I love this song and think it's a great cover for JST. Excellent!

[@BTWood03161]

Love this song just enough rock for Joanne and of course her guitar and solo is at its best again, love Heavy Soul and her last show I saw in Royal Oak.

[@jeffeaton6831]

great cover and puting her twist on it

[@jamesschoonover5068]

WO! Love this song ..GREAT cover!!! Thank you!! AWESOME RIFFS!!!!

[@peterhargreaves2971]

OH MY GOD!! One of my favourite tracks, covered by my favourite artist, and she does it sooo well!! Thank you, Joanne!! You are THE best!! Love you!

[@FoolsHeaven]

Great song choice and version. A hard bar to get over but cleared by a long distance.

[@kukerland356]

Free 1972.Thanks ❤️🥃

[@samansun]

Now "Stealer" fits well!

[@neilmyers4041]

Heavy Soul indeed.

[@NineToes19]

Not Free. Blackfoot, from their ‘Strikes’ album. Sry.

[@tommyd5238]

Wow, this song really suits your voice and style, I never did get the chance to see Free play live, but this is a great version !

[@patricke541]

Great cover of a great song Joanne! Cool vid too!

[@Iluvthe1960s]

Brilliant version this song came out the month I walked out of school for the last time (6 months early but no one cared in those days I’d done my exams didn’t care anymore just wanted to work and earn) brings back great memories. Thank you

[@orca126]

Joanne, come do a concert in Montana! Helena!!! You'd love it here!

[@ibrewalot]

Awesome, as usual! Can't wait to see you at the White Mountain Boogie and Blues again in about a month!

[@johnblack1230]

❤❤❤ JST …that voice! You go girl! Hottest hair flip in the business!

[@geraldbostock3691]

Love a bit of Free, nice cover

[@NineToes19]

Not Free. Search “Wishing Well Blackfoot”. Sry. Good cover though. Bet she’d do good with Black and Blue’ by Kenny Wayne Shepard.

[@Birkguitars]

Would love to hear THIS live. I know musicians want to play their own material as much as possible but sometimes the artist and the song just fit together so perfectly it's almost a sin not to play it. 👏🙏🤞

[@roberttson9535]

Super power queen👌👌👌👏👏😍

[@Julie-n3u]

Freeking awesome ❤❤❤

[@ericlofroos2405]

I LOVE THIS Remake!

[@georgemiles8682]

Love her and her music, keep on ROCKIN.!😊

[@DorothyOzmaLover]

Mm mmmm, this jam smashes w/ that iconic Jo flare!

[@samansun]

Epic outro solo, full of taste.

[@rickyjgoody829]

Love your music and style so much! It was so awesome catching you live in Bakersfield, CA. Made the drive over from the central coast to see you there! Hope you can come thru again soon! 🤘😎

[@JONNIE_ROCKER]

Hell yes, 👍👍🍺.

[@timmoser3526]

I’d like to say the video and sets along with wardrobe were good and Joanne’s wardrobe really good! Funny that’s not something I’d usually comment on😂

[@vickyroo82]

Great version

[@mgagliardi2011]

Nice. Works for me 🤘🤠

[@joshuajeevanand8554]

As usual she makes it so pompous and free flowing

[@NineToes19]

Blackfoot from their “Strikes” album. Same album with the song “Flirtin With Disaster”. And “Highway Song”. Whole album is excellent. Best version of “Wishing Well” ever. And most well known/popular version. My apologies to the band ‘Free’.

[@paulbathgate6348]

Sounds fantastic.

[@janneadolfsson5996]

Free love that song🤘 you do it very well thanks❤

[@sabinewiesbauer6716]

❤❤❤

[@mariebrown5681]

❤ Excellent!

[@parthoghosh5809]

Lovely old number, made new by JST ❤👍👌👏

[@scottaubrey9046]

I like this. Paul rodgers is male so different but good vocals and works. The guitar solo was solid as well 👌

[@shaunleat7124]

Well this a welcome change I am old enough to remember free but this has got grit I like it

[@NineToes19]

Again, not Free. Blackfoot from their Strikes album. Sry. Put in ‘Wishing Well Blackfoot’ here on YT.

[@margittamayer7669]

Super ! 👍

[@nicolasnikopol7946]

Awesome ! Thank you !

[@realdocloco]

When you have the pipes to pay hommage to Paul Rodgers, and the fingers to make Paul Kossof smile from above ... 😎

[@steveferry4922]

Only it was Snuffy Walden who played guitar on this one.

[@realdocloco]

@@steveferry4922 lead was played by Kossof (quite obvious - and Simon Kirke says so too)

[@malcanderson]

​@@realdoclocoAgreed

[@timwalsh715]

Hey folks, BUY THIS RECORD! You'll be glad you did!!! Not one single "skip it".

[@FinFanInCali1]

Awesome as always!

[@skulleader]

WOW awesome version, congratulation

[@LubosMojs]

Amazing song 🎼💯🎶

[@ianhogg8127]

Wowza.

[@neilmyers4041]

Great cover❤❤❤

[@martinmorris5997]

Very nice cover. 😊

[@user-sz1ng5pe6r]

And very cool voice

[@foresakentonone4148]

Safe to say if someone hollars four whilst bowling they are lofting the ball!!!

[@briangriffin2905]

She can certainly play.

[@mojobag01]

Shorn of it's subtlety it has become nothing more than a stolid Blackfoot cover.

[@shawnday7921]

Great cover! I really like Gary Moore’s version also. It’s a bit heavier! Well done!

[@kimholland9316]

Brave to sing a Free song

[@jackiesharples3649]

She hasn't got a good enough voice she is murdering it

[@Enakranogard]

I disagree

[@HorGod2021]

🙌🙌👏👏👏👏

[@MasKNullards]

Top !😉

[@theheepster]

Great, but why is it not on the last Album? I want it on vinyl❤

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@marekpietrzak4684]

Super. Pozdrawiam.

[@cleatusandclovis1845]

best cover by far is Blackfoot but this is very close

[@lucmichel7588]

👍👌

[@TheHyperactiveTV]

free are my fav band, and i thought, oh no, another crap version of this song, but i was so wrong,

[@user-cj6tf8jk5l]

👍

[@RFSIsraelStarEarth]

Peace Love Cool RFS *.

[@jimmymilli52]

I have to disagree about this being the best cover version. This is obviously the video version. As a lifelong Free fan from 1970, I’d like to see her singing this live. There is no equal to Kossoff, Kirk, Rodgers and Fraser in my opinion.

[@malcanderson]

Andy Fraser had left Free by then ,it was Tetsu on bass

[@fenderguitarman5334]

Agreed there is no equal to the original but this is a cover and it’s very good!

[@Pelt101]

A little ‘ club singer- - ish ‘ for me.

[@elwynj5379]

@@malcandersonyes! Sadly Koss was out of it a lot of the time when this was recorded. I remember an interview with Paul Rodgers mid seventies where they talked about him playing guitar on this…..

[@NineToes19]

Blackfoot. Best version ever!

[@riverdart2068]

suspect messrs Rodgers, Fraser, Kirke and of course Koss would approve

[@steveferry4922]

Only it was Snuffy Walden who played guitar on the original

[@malcanderson]

​@steveferry4922 maybe it was...but not according to both Rodgers and kirk, and to my ears that's Koss.

[@shona1224]

Great choice of song and JST could really give it justice, shame about the production losing the real feel of her voice - too clean for me (pitch corrected and lost tone) and I been to over a dozen JST concerts and love her real voice's sound.

[@jeanlucpain7214]

I prefer the Blackfoot 's version but that 's fine however !😊👌😉

[@craigstewart202]

Maggie Bell's version by a country mile

[@pfkmsandiego]

mix is weird but still a cool song. ❤ peace

[@bluesrockinronald]

remember Gary Moore's version ...

[@MACEMC-r8v]

Jucie wrld ????

[@careful...Icarus]

Decent attempt. Nobody on earth could ever touch Free tho. Gary Moore does the second best version. She should try Seven Angels...lol just kidding she'd hurt herself doing that.

[@garyshaw8169]

I saw Free in 1973. This isn't it.

[@ehehe123456]

口パクは要らない

[@user-wv1eu1wj2y]

Blackfoot did the best cover of this song. But this version is SMOOTH!!! Perfect ❤

[@frankscott1199]

I disagree tommy shaw does the best cover w styx

[@JamesSmith-sb7ji]

Garry moores cover is much better than this check it out

Nice cover. Dodgy video editing.

⁠@@malcandersoner, she was born in Wednesbury in the West Midlands and grew up in Solihull.

@pagen1963 I was referring to the post by @dorisjohnson5334 asking what would Bad Company think..ie thinking Wishing Well is a Bad Co song.

[@pagen1963]

@@malcanderson fair point. On re-reading the thread, I see what you mean. Easy to interpret ‘she’ as meaning JST, though. Happy to stand corrected.

[@stevans77]

Worst version ever
