JO ANN KELLYThe rock era saw a few white female singers, like Janis Joplin, show they could sing the blues.
But one who could outshine them all -- Jo Ann Kelly -- seemed to slip through the cracks,
mostly because she favored the acoustic, Delta style rather than rocking out
with a heavy band behind her. But with a huge voice, and a strong guitar style influenced
by Memphis Minnie and Charley Patton, she was the queen

SLEEVE VG+ (please, see pictures and read above description)
By 1964 she was playing in clubs, including the Star in Croydon,
and had made her first limited-edition record with future Groundhogs guitarist Tony McPhee.
She expanded to play folk and blues clubs all over Britain, generally solo, but occasionally with other artists,
bringing together artists like Bessie Smith and Sister Rosetta Tharpe into her own music.
After the first National Blues Federation Convention in 1968 her career seemed ready to take flight.
She began playing the more lucrative college circuit, followed by her well-received debut album in 1969.
At the second National Blues Convention, she jammed with Canned Heat,
who invited her to join them on a permanent basis...(AllMusic)
