Jo Ann Kelly 5. 1. 1944 - 21. 10.1990
"This is a remarkable woman. Her entry in Sheldon Harris's Blues Who's Who (and the first remarkable thing is that a white English woman has an entry in it at all) tells us that Jo Ann Kelly's recorded performances have been released on labels like Epic and Columbia, as well as Blue Goose and Red Rag. Also that she has worked extensively in America in addition to Britain and continental Europe. And it quotes Ian A. Anderson (of 'Folk Roots' magazine) as expressing the opinion that Jo Ann is 'unquestionably the queen of British country blues singers'." Paul Jones (Liner notes to Retrospect 1964-72) "It was hard to do Walking Blues for instance, but I was not born with a voice like Mavis Staples or Jo Ann Kelly."
