Stone Free Countdown - Joanne Shaw Taylor 8/6/18

"There are few finer sights than an unleashed JST with a Les Paul. Easy tiger, remember where you are. The Les Paul remains too for 'Jump That Train' from the 'Diamonds In The Dirt' album, whose, title track follows thereafter. With a proper heavy Blues riff it has a funky lilt to it which Italian icon Casanova provides his own lesson in love. The excellent sound quality again shows itself as the Gibson provides a beautiful melodic chime to counter the almost soft husky vocals. And with the sultry 'Tried Tested And True' to follow we really are getting the full (royal) family of tracks. All interspersed with regular sips of honey and lemon to keep the voice going. It sounds fine to me." That was part of our take on Joanne Shaw Taylor's Royal Festival Hall gig last November and as part of our Stone Free Festival countdown, Joanne - who is on stage at 5.45 at the O2 Arena on Sunday 17th June - is today's Video Of The Day.
