Why not Italy?? 😞

[@David_Thompson]

Great vibe on this one!

[@morgarama.]

Please come to Australia!!! You've got a lot of fans down here who would absolutely love to see you live!!

[@crizblues9167]

whats instagram joanna jones ?????

[@mash808]

The guitars on this one were on another level.

[@OradWasTaken]

The vocals man

[@SmokeyTreats]

​@@OradWasTaken Especially her!

[@bluwng]

@@OradWasTakenI like her singing but it seems so forced , the entire style like it’s not natural but someone pretending to sound like someone or something else.

[@louwannapfab2048]

But she doesn't sound like anything else so.... She's definitely not trying to sound like Brian Johnson

[@gustavfringdelapolloshermanos]

ethereal

[@bobmorphis7114]

DANG! Joe can really make that guitar CRY! So tasteful, so much respect for AIR! And Joanna burns up this vocal! BRAVO everyone!

[@andtothewestamerica]

Yeah he really gave that space. Super tasteful

[@frankgeick3641]

I liked his "extreme bends" high on the neck like Jeff Beck.

[@bobbiejeanbarnett675]

👍🌹!!!

[@drasticwillb]

@@frankgeick3641 finger pluck and no pick like Jeff Beck

[@crmil]

Bravo it's an italian word. Please it is: "Bravo" when is addressed to a male, "Bravi" when are all males or heterogeneous group of people, "Brava" for one female, "Brave" when are all females.

[@BaldursPicketFence]

Scary pockets’ rhythm sections never.ever.disappoint.

[@cooldebt]

Yes, the pocket is always scary good!

[@ngamac]

Man I wasn't prepared at how good this is.

[@MoonWalkerTexsRanger]

Joe should really play more often in restrain like that. He made some really tasty almost jazzy lines. First time I heard him doing that 🙌

[@traversclark8876]

I agree, I'd go a bit a further and say I usually think Joe sounds bad, with restraint he sounds much better.

[@mattgoulty7907]

Then you have no taste xD Joe is the on the Rushmore of modern lead blues my guy, one of the best technicians on the planet @@traversclark8876

[@davidt9841]

First time? All your comment tells me is that you haven’t listened to Bonamassa, enough.. goes for your friend, too!

[@cemsarioglu5947]

What a performance and a godly guitar tone from JB.

[@rositachadronet6187]

Joe never disappoints! He's my very favorite! 🌹 rosita

You’re not wrong! 😂

[@VOByRobbins]

What a huge surprise on a Monday!!!! Her vocals, Joes guitar --- truly magic!!!!! --- insanely good!! thanks Scary Pockets!!! Flipping the script again !!!!!

[@dvjvbv]

When the electric threw out that signature riff with the echo.. Beautiful!!

[@rebeccalanejazz]

Back in black I hit the sack I've been too long, I'm glad to be back Yes, I'm let loose From the noose That's kept me hanging about I've been looking at the sky 'Cause it's gettin' me high Forget the hearse 'cause I never die I got nine lives Cat's eyes Abusin' every one of them and running wild 'Cause I'm back Yes, I'm back Well, I'm back Yes, I'm back Well, I'm back, back Well, I'm back in black Yes, I'm back in black Back in the back Of a Cadillac Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack Yes, I'm in a bang With a gang They've got to catch me if they want me to hang 'Cause I'm back on the track And I'm beatin' the flack Nobody's gonna get me on another rap So look at me now I'm just makin' my play Don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way

[@celtictexan32]

Loved seeing Joe Bonamassa playing with yall

[@TimmyB1867]

I wasn't sure how this would go as funk cover. Blown away in the first verse, and what a ride. Amazing job all.

[@Benisuber1]

What a great female voice for an AC/DC cover! And going the bluesy route with Bonamassa for that band is a great touch.

[@cyclethelock]

Pretty sure she was eyeballing a lyric sheet, which honestly makes this/her even better; this is a song many of us have heard and played god knows how many times in crappy bands, and maybe it’s a new tune for her. Very nice.

[@ljphoenix4341]

​@@cyclethelock according to Jack and Ryan, they only allow about 90 min from start to finish for each cover, so 100%, if you don't know the lyrics fully, it's so impressive

[@shawnmcvey7789]

Yeah, that was a particularly well chosen pairing. She got the energy right but still sang it her style.

[@paullowell3342]

Back in baaaaaaack, she sounds like a sheep lol

[@jimryan2506]

@@paullowell3342I agree... Seems we are in the minority here as most are raving how wonderful she sounds. I guess they like Me Me Me gan Markle look alikes who sound like barnyard animals mating...

[@mentalcog2187]

Me thinks I like this too much! 🙃 Everyone is so solid on this song. Absolutely love Joanna's approach and she's so freaking extremely hot doing it too! *Wooo!* Mr. Bonamassa is phenomenal of course. Bass Players facial expressions are priceless telling a story of a happy musician as does the other guitarist! Yeah,.. so loving this! Have came back several times!

[@oliverbusch2649]

Always great to see a guitar hero being able to hold back and chill. Nice!

[@SenseiPanda]

One part hard rock, one part funk, a sprinkling of soul, and you're all set!

[@freyna]

This. Blew. My. Mind. Ugly Face throughout. All of it. I'm lapping it up. Awesome y'all. Thank you.

[@Grant_Ferstat]

Really like the way the re-imagined verses meshed with the choruses which were more of the original feel. Seamless.

[@GottesKumpel]

The first moment I was not sure if I like Joanna‘s voice….. it took about about to the first refrain and I was and still am addicted to that song. Another masterpiece of the scary pockets. Thank you for that. Love you, Joanna. ❤

[@adam-yk6yd]

What a vocal performance. JB using an SG is a nice touch 😎

[@n1vca]

Wow, Joe is absolutely killing it and I am saying this not being a guitar focused guy, I just love jazz and his improvisation is outstanding! But everybody is really great and this combination is definitely one of my very favorite SP tracks.

[@gauravkumar3146]

Man her voice gives chills🤯

[@riddlerbir]

OMG her voice is like nails in my ears

[@timwalsh715]

So . . . .COOL! Damn sure did NOT see this comin'!

[@ljphoenix4341]

Blown away at how good this is!! Scary Pockets and co absolutely nailed this!! 🧡

[@mesfeld]

Scary Pockets is a veritable institution by now! Another amazing cover. Oh, and by the way, if you love funk you just might check out a project Joe's involved in that I don't think many are aware of. The band is Rock Candy Funk Party that includes The Basic Band (Conan’s house band) Tal Bergman on drums (Joe's touring drummer), guitarist Ron DeJesus, Mike Merritt on bass and Renato Neto (Sheila E., Dianne Reeves, Scott Henderson, Prince) on keys. Oh, and Bonamassa is along for the ride, too. They smoke!

[@rvheard]

Just wow. Bonamassa! Jones! Scary Pockets! ACDC! I love that Mr. Bonamassa is playing that particular guitar in reference to Angus Young in the original video. Also, the way he paraphrases some of Young's guitar playing, but with such a gentle voice, it's almost comedy. Sublime.

[@JesseStevenPollom]

Calvin Turner holdin it down on da bass 💪🏻🔥

[@Jehusafec]

Joanna Jones was great on The Sing Off, so good to see her here now!

[@mr1pearl]

Joe Bonamassa în the house 😎 Joanna Jones what a voice !

[@tjenaldds]

I love the way Joe plays that riff like it's nothing and Ryan has this big ole grin

[@mattwhitlock6062]

It’s a shame there isn’t a ‘love’ button. That’s an amazing version. Gonna have it on repeat for a while now…

[@tobytoxd]

💜

[@alleneh]

This is so cool... I came for Joe and discovered Joanna... and this lady can sing.

[@returningtoearthtv8836]

Wow! Space between notes is sooooo fine to hear and feel. Many gracias.

[@atruefaith6424]

Great observation! I totally agree!

[@liamallen696]

The vocal run at 2:41 is so so good,

[@Rockisnot_Dead]

I've never heard such a funky, crazy cover before!

[@DaddyBooneDon]

R&B makes everything better 😊

[@noahlevin2397]

Amazing touch to have joe on the SG. Very much AC/DC

[@tobytoxd]

Truly one of the best guitar solos, i have ever heard in my entire life! Pure fire! 🔥🔥🔥

[@timbrindle7743]

I was born in '78. I've been a fan of both Bonamassa and Pockets in GB for years. Thank you so much for collaborating on a substantial metal anthem and turning into a new piece I'll enjoy for years

[@IAMST1D]

Jack Conte YOU ARE MY HERO !!! Just chilling with Joe

[@zurvey]

WOW! This one really turned out great! LOVED it! Thanks, guys. BTW, please thank the camera crew and video editor too - that work was totally worthy of the music as well.

[@intrinsical]

I've been in love with Joanna's voice since noticing her in The Sing-Off with the Backbeats. Good to see she has developed her own style and voice since then.

[@leefreed2060]

Is there anything Joe can't do??? This is amazing

[@robertking8585]

This is a breath of fresh air after being subjected 2 the “one melody one rhythm only mindset” since the turn of the Century, way to go Joe🙏💜 it

[@Skyriiing]

You guys always find amazing combinations to work perfectly!

[@lukerabin5079]

I’m a very proud Australian, and of course AC/DC are very much part of our DNA, down under. However, I am officially starting a movement to offer your gorgeous, talented singer an honorary Aussie Passport as a sign of our great affection for her talent!

Missed the chance to put Joe in a schoolboy's uniform

Absolutely NAILED this song WOW WOW WOW👏👏👏👏

[@timmaa6469]

I was expecting Joe to wear Angus school uniform ;-) - nice playing, really funky!

[@mokumboi19]

Well, that was fire. Proves a great song can be played in any style and it's still great. And Ms. Jones buh-rought it.

[@justinguitarcia]

Scary pockets ALWAYS crushes but sometimes they pull a cover and a chemistry of the players, the tune, arrangement is pure magic

[@ChienJaune01]

One of the top SP covers so far

[@cgrovespsyd]

Joe nailin’ it with tastefully integrated Albert King licks. And the singer totally kicked that songs ass! Beautifully done!

[@bbuchan0]

This is sick! Jack bringing the crazy modes and Joe bringing the taste and Joanna just crushing. Damn! Hey Jack... could you have predicted this version of yourself 10 years ago? Amazing jam from all y'alls!

[@donaldsaintval8952]

That solo though 🤌🏽🤌🏽

I love Joe the sideman or as support, something about him in that roll really brings out some of his best imo

[@jvbluesville3426]

Joe should come out with an album with this type of tunes, I really like the Prince cover he played on with sp

[@nathanbrooks5822]

I agree. Although, he does dabble in the ways of funk with his group Rock Candy Funk Party.

[@Alex-pr6zv]

This is superb. What a voice, what a sideman. Faithful covers that stick to the original blueprint are boring. Creativity is the essence of music!

[@TheRealPhesten]

How did I miss this one? It's awesome.

I was dubious about this, but damn, it's an amazing cover! Love her vocals!

[@segamble1679]

I see that Gibson SG. Way to represent the Angus Axe. Nice touch. Also, maybe it's the nature of this song in particular, but some vocalists feel like part of the band, rather than "ft. vocalist" -this incredible woman rocks her place in the band phenomenally.

[@RevM]

That was a nice touch.

ok so searches for joanna jones is fruitless so far, there’s too many. What a voice! does she record on her own?

I like seeing Bonamassa as a sideman; it exposes a different beast.
