I've found this video for the first time near Christmas 2024, and what a treat!! Now I've followed Samantha for a while now and have become a huge fan of her music, but IMO this just screams out "Janis Joplin" to me, and I say that as the best compliment I can think of right now. ❤❤
... thanks for checking out my video of Samantha at Callahan's Music Hall. This was the first time i had seen or heard of Samantha Fish. I went that night to see someone different. There were not many people at the show. In fact, the whole show can be found on YT. The whole show was good and i was impressed with Samantha and her band; however, when they performed the cover of one of my favorite songs, and so brilliantly done, i knew this girl is going to be something special. Thanks for watching. Search Samantha with ''Callahan's'', and you'll find over 100 videos.
... this was my first time seeing Samantha when i filmed this show. I had no idea who she was at the time. Up until this song, i was impressed with what she was putting down; however, when this song was played, i knew she was going to be a star. Still one of my favorite live recordings that i have filmed.
... when i was recording this song, i had never heard of Samantha Fish until this night at Callahan's. I wasn't sure what to expect. Prior to this song, I was impressed with her show so far ... but when she played this, one of my favorite songs, I knew i was watching someone special. I have seen her a dozen times since that first night, but never has she played this song again. Makes this recording even more of a treasure. Thanks for watching and your continued support.
... thank you for watching this ''classic'' video. This was my first time seeing Samantha and had no idea who she was when i entered the club to watch the show and film her that night. I was enjoying her performance and the songs, but it wasn't until she played this song, that i knew she was going to be a force on the blues scene.
I love her voice, it is transcendent. She has complete command of where she wants it to go and it takes her there flawlessly every single time. Susan Tadeschi blew me away when I saw her and Derek one summer, but Samantha's voice, punctuated by a guitar virtuosity that she reigns over like the goddess that she is, leaves me in a place where I can't find the words to describe what she has done to my soul. I just know that when I come back down to Earth, I feel more than alive. I then can't wait to hear her voice again and have my spirit lifted even higher. This is, for me, exactly what music is supposed to do and Samantha does it for me like no one else, with every breath of life that she gives to every word she sings and every note she plays. I've been listening to music for 56 years and I now know that there won't ever be a voice I'll want to hear more than that of Samantha Fish.
beeeeautifully said! I love your Susan reference, this song is a lil different than her own stuff, vocally anyway, more in Susan's range 🥰🥰 Very well said, I agree Miss Fish is crazy crazy perfect, food for the soul, ALLLL the parts.
It's the curse of the blues. If you've ever seen Clapton playing straight blues, it's obvious how much more he likes blues than rock but the rock has been playing some big bills for him for a long time.
Lisa Colbert Having met her a few times since I first posted this comment, I think that you have got it banged to rights. She is incorruptible.She does what she wants, and plays to what she believes her fan base wants, and I think that she has got it exactly right.
No...She is the greatest blues singer of all time, no body has ever sent me like this girl...WOW! and what about the soul in the guitar...true soldier blue blues...,...!
what I dig is the pure raw passion and emotion...the little flub she laughs at at around 7:30ish...yet she is still flawless to me cuz it's all about the feel and just "goin with it"...love it all!!!
I think there were 2 flubs actually, she hit a floor button a tad too soon between her solo and going back to singing. You can hear the guitar mute a bit. I think she could have delayed that tap on the pedal a few seconds and THEN sing again.
You can learn to play the guitar and sing but that type of expression comes from within. When it comes to blues especially, it's everything. There aren't words to describe how good this is.
So,so true..... when it comes to singin and pickin the Blues, she's definitely got soul and expression, she's at the top of the list as a Blues artist. 👍😎
I love how she turns and looks at Go Go and Chris at the end with that "yeah! I just did that!" look on her face! Pure joy when you know you just NAILED IT! Samantha you are absolutely incredible!
I’ve got a UA-cam playlist for S. Fish with over 50 songs. This is my favorite song. I get a kick out of her catching and laughing off her slight flub between 7:35-7:45 mark. As great as she is she’s only human. The combination of her singing and playing though is 🤯😎🫨
Is there something on my mind Samantha yes how bluesy are u your guitar playing is second to none, your songwriting is sublime and your incredible voice it is so beautiful I know u will keep on making great music Samantha. You are a blues legend already!
... this is one of my top ten videos that i've filmed by any artist. I knew it was a classic when i was filming it. Had never heard of Sam until this night.
I love Samantha's "guitar face".That's what we call the open-mouthed, tongue-stuck-out-of-the-corner look a guitarist gets when the riff is really good and they're way into it and she's got it bad. Correction, she's got it good 'cause that's when you get the best music. Watch. You'll see, I'm right.
As usual... Samantha Fish is once again putting on a stellar performance... with those talented fingers and fantastic vocal cords she has... and " My goodness gracious " don't she look fabulous in those jeans! I know someone has said this before but... " She is the Total package " for sure and this Texan loves listening ( and watching) some Samantha Fish performances! 👍👍🤠
... this was my first time seeing Samantha. She played this song half-way through her set, and it was this song that i realized this girl is going to be a star and a force to reckon with. Thank you for watching and your comment.
My mom listened to her a lot, shes gone now. I didnt really listen to samantha fish really so i looked through her songs an am pretty surprised she does this song because its one of my favorite tunes. An shes playing in Michigan where im from.
I would not lie. I have to hear this tune every single day since Christmas 2017 when I first heart it on youtube. I love it so much and her raw emotion just brings me inside of hear beautiful heart as she jams out so perfect. SAM you are so great with all your work. Thank You for choosing this path in life and sharing it with a world that needs some healing and kindness like the kind you share on the stage. Love you and the group Gene istre.
AND EVERY LAST TIME, I just get high listenin' to this composition…as if some other interpretation would change me now that I'v e been inoculated, Praise the Lord.
Great performance, Samantha. That's what i love about blues! Best wishes from Germany. I hope we'll see you any time, more sooner than later, here again. I love the sound of you guitar. Gernot
I have everything this lady has out,,,,,, she WILL BE top of ALL charts. Love her,,, really moves me. Beth Hart,,, Danielle Nicole,,,,, this lady is the best.

I got tired of all those blues guitar heroes running up and down the frets just to say nothing but this woman brought back the thrill.
Yes!!!!
instablaster.
Yip I saw Joe bonnamassa here in Scotland so disappointing
Now THIS is the bluesy Samantha Fish I love. Not the loud rock metal commercial sounding band of 2024.
Correct :)
Agree except for her sounding like loud rock metal in 2024.
If i could give this song 1000 likes, I would !!!

Come back to this Sammy.
Am I the only one to get tears of JOY listening to this woman voice?
nope :)
Samantha has an excellent blues voice, the emotion comes through just like it does in her guitar playing. She's phenomenal!
@Goggle products In your twisted dreams. It wouldn't matter if she was. You're an idiot.
@Goggle products What an ignorant thing to say.
yes, you're the only crybaby
Ive heard of her before. But this.. this got in my soul. Guitar solo was something else. And so much pain in her voice... Great great job
Each and every time I listen to Samantha sing this song, I truly feel, she is one of the Greatest Blues artists on the planet!!!

only 22 years old...she's going to take the blues world by storm.
31 now and still being a badass guitarist/singer
You were correct
This womans voice guitar makes my ❤️ check out her and buddy guy wow going down slow fav
... thank you for watching this ''classic'' video. This was my first time seeing Samantha and had no idea who she was when i entered the club to watch the show and film her that night. I was enjoying her performance and the songs, but it wasn't until she played this song, that i knew she was going to be a force on the blues scene.
Amazing perfect!!! Every note played with her soul, and technically sophisticated.
Respect to the sky - one in a million.
Love this - she’s the total package! 👩 🎸 🎤
I wish you knew what’s on my mind Samantha ❤
I love her voice, it is transcendent. She has complete command of where she wants it to go and it takes her there flawlessly every single time.

68 yrs for me, and I agree, no one else I'd rather hear

With that being said..... She's a goody good girl ❤️💫🎶🎵
You nailed it buddy.
I get goosebumps every time I watch this video.
Just simply Awesome! ❤
WHY is this girl not more well known? She is fabulous.
It's the curse of the blues. If you've ever seen Clapton playing straight blues, it's obvious how much more he likes blues than rock but the rock has been playing some big bills for him for a long time.
Or maybe because she's incorruptible ?
Lisa Colbert Having met her a few times since I first posted this comment, I think that you have got it banged to rights. She is incorruptible.She does what she wants, and plays to what she believes her fan base wants, and I think that she has got it exactly right.
Because she's not an auto tune using pop diva
Chris Stokes you look like someone I met at a music festival in missouri, wasn't you was it?
You just got to know she loves the music that spills from those fingers and she is committed to perfection!
Samantha Fish is on my bucket list.
No...She is the greatest blues singer of all time, no body has ever sent me like this girl...WOW! and what about the soul in the guitar...true soldier blue blues...,...!
Wow it's real blues I like it
She is the most talented bluesartist since long time ago, i am impressed.
Samantha Fish is a national treasure.
I’ve been following Samantha on UA-cam for a bunch of years now and this is definitely my favourite line up
Damn! this girl is something else.
This , This, This performance is soooooo simply EPIC!!!!!!!!
2022 and still love it!!
Hands down a true musucian and a voice thats timeless.... this girl got ' it'
Samantha is the best fish in the world.
Dammit, she always kills it! Leaves me soul stirred every time. Never fails to satisfy.
2024 and still loving this performace, It touches my heartstrings!
what I dig is the pure raw passion and emotion...the little flub she laughs at at around 7:30ish...yet she is still flawless to me cuz it's all about the feel and just
"goin with it"...love it all!!!
Kim Steele
she pulled that "flub" off like a pro. i liked the way she just laughed about it also. just too cool.
Yes! It's even lovely moving!
I think there were 2 flubs actually, she hit a floor button a tad too soon between her solo and going back to singing. You can hear the guitar mute a bit. I think she could have delayed that tap on the pedal a few seconds and THEN sing again.
Sam at her absolute brilliant best!!
Lotta talent in that package. Very impressed.
Samantha,you made me feel the blues! You are magnificate!!!!
You can learn to play the guitar and sing but that type of expression comes from within. When it comes to blues especially, it's everything. There aren't words to describe how good this is.
The best Cover ever. Fantastic.
So,so true..... when it comes to singin and pickin the Blues, she's definitely got soul and expression, she's at the top of the list as a Blues artist. 👍😎
I love how she turns and looks at Go Go and Chris at the end with that "yeah! I just did that!" look on her face! Pure joy when you know you just NAILED IT! Samantha you are absolutely incredible!
Incredible moment in time and they were right there with her for the ride. Very special
I’ve got a UA-cam playlist for S. Fish with over 50 songs. This is my favorite song. I get a kick out of her catching and laughing off her slight flub between 7:35-7:45 mark. As great as she is she’s only human. The combination of her singing and playing though is 🤯😎🫨
My Lady Sam, forever. 👍
Possibly the greatest blues singer of all time...I don't give that title without a lot of thought my dear!.
Blues on a Sunday morning. Thank you Samantha.
So beautiful and epic at that omfg . the queen of blues. holey hell wish she was mine....
Is there something on my mind Samantha yes how bluesy are u your guitar playing is second to none, your songwriting is sublime and your incredible voice it is so beautiful I know u will keep on making great music Samantha. You are a blues legend already!
O my god, wonderfull! How did i not know her before? Im in love with her voice!
Absolutly a Great Cover. So much Feeling and Emotions. One of my Fav. Tunes from Samantha.
I have just cottoned onto Samantha fish and have been on catch-up for some months...what a heartbreaker!
awesome blues musician-so glad to see so many young talented musicians in the blues
so much emotion, it's simple, groovy, clear sound, blues
This girl is good.. I believe she is the best guitar woman player I ever seen..
Nothing but true talent goose bumps
Damn she is awesome!
She just slayed me again. Wow. She should be a massive star.
Best thing to do for this song is........hit replay.
put on your Bose 700 headphones first though
I hadn't googled Sam in a while and when I did, this gem awaited.
What an amazing woman.
... this is one of my top ten videos that i've filmed by any artist. I knew it was a classic when i was filming it. Had never heard of Sam until this night.
Still listening in 2024! Something sooo sexy about the way she sings this and then just slays! Wow!
And she is a drummer....love this girls love for the blues...
Thanks Sam....
7 or 8 years ago when I first heard this women I was hooked love her and her music
Love, love ,love this... I never get tired of listening to her music.. My favorite 😍 😍👍👍🌺🌺
This is a virtuoso blues performance. Seriously awesome chops.
No offence to those who did this song before her....even B.B King and Miss Etta James but she took an ordinary song and made it extraordinary!
the drummer really understands to undertone her feelings! yeah! so nice
this f..... awesome girl!
I always come back to this one. it's the sincerest form of flattery to be thought of. plus it's a great combination. they are a great band
Likewise. Lost count of how many times I've watched this amazing performance.
I love every song i've heard from this woman. But this song here Hits my heart every single time I hear it...
Not only all of this, but she writes some great songs, too.
I love Samantha's "guitar face".That's what we call the open-mouthed, tongue-stuck-out-of-the-corner look a guitarist gets when the riff is really good and they're way into it and she's got it bad. Correction, she's got it good 'cause that's when you get the best music. Watch. You'll see, I'm right.
that happens when you put your all into it.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
We call it “stank” face! All the greats have it!
'Open-mouthed', yes, but she didn't stick her tongue out once - you've imagined that, lol
I discovered Samantha Fish & I'm addicted NOW!! She's a 1 of a KIND!! #RedheadFishhead
LOVE Samantha Fish !!!
Sam is a rock star.
My first time too . Scary full stage command
Yes, I would understand, Sam you punch me in the heart
Lots of deep emotional feelings ... great blues!
Just awesome plain and simple really really nice soothing sound love it.
Fucking amazing!
This song just melts me all over.🔥🤩💖 Wish I had musical talent even a fraction of that!!
Thats the kind of passion a person only feels......when there is a Snickers bar melting in your back pocket!!

I listen to this video at least daily
Like you say, every day, but ….there are so many good video’s of ‘the queen of the blues’…I can not play every good capture of Sam every day😂 😂😂
You have to love Samanthas three piece band.
Traces of Etta James, Janis Joplin, and Bonnie Raitt, yet her own style and voice. Damn, I love her!
and a little Susan Tedeschi
comparisons are so lame , "damn I love her" was all you needed to say
Well said!!
One of her best videos online. Love this tune.
thank you very much for your kind words to my video. When i was filming this i knew i was filming something special.
thank you indeed 👌
AND EVERY LAST TIME, I just get high listenin' to this composition…as if some other interpretation would change me now that I'v e been inoculated, Praise the Lord.
.... it is a moving experience to watch this video completely. I knew when i was filming that it would be something special.
I am so grateful that this awesome artist is gonna be at the NOJF 2018 I can't wait.
Love this lady.
She does have that special something, like an uncut stone
From a deeper well! Thank you and blessings!
Great performance, Samantha. That's what i love about blues!
Best wishes from Germany.
I hope we'll see you any time, more sooner than later, here again. I love the sound of you guitar.
Gernot
Total blues...! Thank you for sharing. Taking this straight to FaceBook!
So great this is on record and live. You'd be lucky to catch her playing this number of course now.
I have everything this lady has out,,,,,, she WILL BE top of ALL charts.
Love her,,, really moves me.
Beth Hart,,, Danielle Nicole,,,,, this lady is the best.
Samantha I'll see you in Phoenixville PA in September....#RedheadFishhead
COVER? She owns every song she plays and sings.....
Cover....she didn't write this one, unfortunately, but IMO it is the best version I've heard of it
Thanks bluzdudemi for putting this on UA-cam, I have listened to it every day since the first time I heard it.
Shes got that fish sign on her guitar broken as she mentioned it in Gear rundown video. Also awesome performance, Samantha is the blues!
Oh Yes More Please ..
Bluzdudemi's videos of Callahan's 3/30/2013 Sam at work are the best.

@@bluzdudemi I was (pleasantly) surprised to learn that this audio is directly off cam...I would have suspected/expected it to have been taken from the board. As an "old hand" with considerable ball-room experience (Avalon, + Family Dog Productions, S.F., Ca. '70's--early 80's) we always attempted to pirate audio from Bob and Betty Matthews' (Alembic Sound) mixing board. The new digital electronics are superior, of course, but still require a skilled hand on the throttle! (and good vid gear!)
Peter Jay has a good "hand" and even tho the "room" has good acoustics, his clear, crisp "grabs" appeal to my "ear." I'd much rather have a "clean" sound where vocals can be understood and the lead instrument(s) can sing out than a "muddied" bass-heavy "thump" which not only "clips" but distorts most of the important higher-ranges of the spectrum.
Hats off and kudos to Peter Jay on a difficult job executed well. But I was sure disappointed to learn that Callahan's is shuttering! Maybe someone else will pick up the mantle--it's for sure a good sounding venue!
What an incredible guitar player. A new fan here!
wow.......guitar solo is great!!!!!!!!!!!! Samantha..... i love you)
Like it very much. Great artistry.
