I'm originally a Streatham boy (born in 1963). I had absolutely no idea she was from Streatham!

Very interesting! That image near the end of Danbrook Road, where I grew up in the 1960s and 70s, is the house where my best childhood friend lived (the one further to the right of the three 'newer' ones). Do you have any details of that specific incident? Thanks

Thank you so much for this lovely history of Mitchum line where I lived for many years,

Excellent, thank you for sharing.

I wrote a lot here but it disappeared. What about the Modern School.?

Excelent presentation. Full of knowledge. I work in Lambeth, but live in north London

Didn't Cecil Beaton rent Red house for 20 years?

Very happy to come across your talk, it was really very interesting and full of insightful information. I live near the Winsford Cottage Hospital and visited on an open day a few years ago. The scale is so human and the simplicity of detail is marvellous. Thank you for this 😊

Darling woman ❤

I had the privalige of knowing Jo Ann before she was Jo Ann.

VERY WELL Compiled & Presented. I enjoyed the talk. Very informative. I'm looking for an amateur actor Norman Turner who performed with the Streatham Players in 1960's & 70's. Wondered whether he was still about as he was a good friend of mine back in our younger day. Norman was a security officer & lived in Telford Avenue.

I worked in the Thrale hotel in 1978 the owners then were Two brothers named Campbell Also Mrs Oliver who was related to the Campbells I worked on the reception desk and it was very popular with travelling salesmen .Also the Wurzels stayed ther during that year .

Raymond Chandler went to Dulwich College (a bloke from Doncaster writes)

Interesting, I had so much passion to learn before watching. I can see why there's less information on the match girls than the radium girls. It's such a shame that the information lacks the biological implications and the social outcomes to industrial disease. Does anyone have any good versions of the story they can recommend that tells it better?

Superb songwriter ! Legend ! 🎸🎤🔥🙏

Terrific commentary. Enjoyable listening.

Excellent talk, pity that the sound is so low, even on top volume I struggled to hear some of it.

Never heard of himm!!!

Thank you so much for this video, which I have just viewed with great enjoyment. I have lived in Australia for almost 50 years but was born in 1950 in Westcote Road (opposite ‘The Thrale ‘ pub as it was always known to us and upon the corner of which still stands the existing empty site where the bomb hit in World War II) and lived there for 20 years or more. My continuous family history in the street goes back to the 1800s so it’s very interesting to see the area through the eyes of my family as they would have seen in those days. One brother still lives there in fact, so the history continues. I do have one question though-there were several mentions of the Thrale Hall hotel being a hotel up until the 1960s, but unless I’m mistaken it was still a going concern when I had my wedding night there in 1973! Many thanks again and please keep up the good work!

Very good

very good. interesting.

I love the wonderful awkwardness that the speakers have, yet I can feel the love that the speakers had for JoAnn. This is a rough cut diamond.

This is the part of my day I always enjoy!!! Do what the pros do > "Promo sm"!

Great video. I’ve lived in Streatham for 20 years and this is so informative and well put together. Great effort. Thanks

My family lived in Babington Rd , Streatham , (1953 - 67). I used to walk past the Swing Shop every day and look at the blues and jazz records on display. Also old guitars and post war banjos. It was a strange old row of shops - next door a kind of art deco cafe, and also Streatham green, which was never built on.(consecrated ground??) The shop was a big influence, as was Jo Ann Kelly

Saw Jo-Ann 4 or 5 times approx ,69/,70 , solo and with theJohn Dummer Band one time.They did a really rousing "Shake your Moneymaker with Jo-Ann leading!!😁

I would love to know something about Leigham Vale where I lived as a child.

In the new movie Enola Holmes the movie covers the strike and Sarah is in it well an actress plays her also she has an adoptive little sister who also works at the factory

This was quite a treat out here in California-thank you! I had never heard of Jo Ann until I tumbled down a Memphis Minnie rabbit hole last year and read about this British blues woman who did benefits for her. Luckily for me, I thought to look Jo Ann up. That’s been a revelation for sure. One think I’ve noticed while following Jo Ann around UA-cam is how many people comment that they saw her playing up close in some local club, never a big venue. I’ve taken that to be a testament to the kind of musician she was, and it comes through in her musical legacy. BTW, David Bromberg did indeed write Try Me One More Time.

Just found this, I noticed me and my Dads old mate Steve Rye playing harmonica in one of the photos. I lived at Steves place for a while in the late 80's. Sadly Steve was already on a very downward spiral by then. RIP Steve and Jo-Ann

I'm researching the history of the Wandle. This is the most interesting video I've found so far. Really excellent!

Brilliant video love knowing about streatham's past so interesting would love to know more about streatham vale's history.. thanks for posting

Donavan did "Diamond Ring" except he called it "Hey, Gyp" and American band covered it also, not sure which one, I need to dig into my record collection. But this is the best cover.

The first time I heard Jo-Ann sing was on the Anthology of British Blues Vol. 1 where she sang "I Feel So Good" and "Ain't Seen No Whiskey" back in around 1967 or 68. Those two songs totally blew me away, and I've been a fan ever since. But it wasn't until youtube came along with a vast body of her work that I really honed in on her brilliant music. What really knocked me out is she was the British Blues musicians' musician. I met Bob Andrews from Brinsley Schwartz at the New Orleans Jazzfest about 8 or 10 years ago. Bob was in New Orleans gathering new influences. But I met him in the WWOZ hospitality tent and we got to talking, and I was asking about a lot of classic British Blues musicians who never made it too much in the states. I asked him about Jo-Ann and he gave me a look like "You know about her?" And he went off on how much he loved her vocals and told some wonderful Jo-Ann stories. I have a Jo-Ann Kelly playlist in my 1blastman channel on youtube if you want to hear more from this wonderful singer. I just added this documentary to it also.

Superb!!! Thank you for introducing this absolute wonderful blues artist to me!!!

Hey love the video 🔥🔥 I make videos too! If you’ve got time check them out 💯

congrats for this interesting tribute to Jo-Ann Kelly & thanks for sharing too !

Wow! I just saw the '69 Memphis Blues Festival vid last night. Jo was on there: she really made me sit up and watch a truly amazing performance. Never heard of her before, glad I have found her now. This vid came up most unexpectedly thanks to YT.

I saw jo Anne live , God bless you darling it was a privilege.

Back in 1978, I was leaving Lagos Nigeria and I had some spare Niara so I went into a store I came out with a box of Bessie Smith. From then on I was hooked on what I would call grass-roots blues. Now I discovered purely by accident Joe Ann Kelly and I'm blown away again.

What an amazingly cool scene you were all a part of. Those intimate gigs must have been magic. Jo Ann ....I'm in love with her as you must have been. I'm so glad you're playing and having a great time still! It all comes round again. All the best from California!

My brother Stan came home with a tape of Jo-Ann . He'd met her in Wimbledon and was very taken with her amazing blues voice. I was struck on hearing it as I was a Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith fan. God rest her Soul

And then they stole all the stuff and burned them down, I know all your secrets, Tony Robinsons program when he speaks to the grand daughter lol she even laughs when asked

You know there was more pictures exist 😉

Is your job to Keep this narrative going to all the newcomers that has moved into the area ? Because most of us was taught this in school or told by our grandparents or the older people that lived around the area at the time, did you live in the area ? Did you go to Norwood Park, Kingswood Paxton, Rockmount, Kingsdale, Sylvan, Ingram, Ashburton Dick Sheppard Tulse Hill Even the Strand school ? Did you live in orphanages ? Like where are you from to be regurgitating ?

1851 lol that date is not important to you today 😂😂😂 Absolute charlatans You try and give that date to me, but the truth is that date belongs to you, The Clapham society will confirm that 😂 Just ask William Wilberforce. So my question is why do you think you needed an Exhibition like this I was exhibitions like this needed worldwide 🤔………………… and don’t give me that we was Progressive and leading the world 💩 cos you was not 😂

Greetings from Canada! Nice little tribute to Jo Ann who I was familiar with a bit through studying the history of British Blues. When you mentioned that live video footage of her was rare and then played what you were aware of I did a search and saw that this video from French TV just popped up up about a month ago so I figured I'd post it here for anyone who's interested. The commentary is in French though but everyone in Britain must know French right? :-) I wonder if Jo Ann knew French? Cheers! ua-cam.com/video/h9xKmJFd46o/v-deo.html
