Great rhythmn 8084 Artist 2009-08-03T12:32:40-04:00 4097259 true 40657022 Joan is my favourite female artist-her lyrics pervade the senses and permeate the soul-in other words-they are beautiful. Love and affection and in these times are exceptional and exquisite! I resent the comment that the younger generation does not appreciate this kind of music. I have loved her since I was very little and would love to see her live at some point. "I'm not in love but I'm open to persuasion" what more can I say!!!! 8084 Artist 2009-07-04T10:40:47-04:00 3753188 true 40017382 Joan as got to be the most underated singer to come out of the UK 8084 Artist 2009-05-21T13:55:24-04:00 3295629 true 5158248 Hi folks, I should give you more infor. about me I am from Engand and live in Austria, I am female and love almost all kinds of music, so it's very difficult to pick out which I love the best, I think solo, might be Joan Armatrading and Etta James but who could forget Ella and Bessie Smith and so many I really can't be the judge and groups so many too choose from, I think I listern more to the voice because the music can always drain out those bad tones, I like Joan Armatrading she came on the stage only with her guitar and her voice just seemed to fill the whole area, all you wanted to do was listen, there was no band, nothing just this Lady with her guitar siging with such a beautiful voice, it was as Ilike everybody in the whole hall went silent and I even met her afterwards, was I ever so lucky! 8084 Artist 2009-04-30T19:18:55-04:00 3094339 true 3965666 Saw her at the Latin Casino ln NJ in 1981........Very small venue......She's great! 8084 Artist 2009-04-04T21:52:04-04:00 2867568 true 7821386 Just discovered this great site!
