Title says it all. Annie Lennox is a good start.


The Wilsons


Joan Jett


and quite possibly the hottest of them all

 

Lizzy Hale of Halestorm. Picture a cross between Pat Benatar and Joan Jett.

 

How about a nod to Samantha Fish,

 

 

Lizzy Hale is one of the few female rockstars that doesn't trade on her looks at all, nor does she need to.

 

It doesn’t get much better than Ann and Nancy Wilson, circa 1976. Mid 70s craziness, 6 musicians with the same haircut - enjoy the nipples

 

dont know how to do pics, but how about kelly ogden from dollyrots

 

So many exceptional female rock and blues musicians. I've also like Joanna Connor: She reminds of a neighbor kid's mom.

 

😳 She sounds like something you'd hear in a back-alley juke with a 40 watt bulb on the stage. Tasty stuff, thx!

 

The original version of alone by I-Ten is better.

 

I didn’t know that was a cover. Good pull.

 

For female musicians performing Led Zeppelin I enjoy the line-up of Anna, Gretchen , Holly, and Clementine of Zepparella. In this case Dazed and Confused (really a Jake Holmes composition).

 

Koda: The original version of alone by I-Ten is better.



Not a fan of post 1980 Heart, just the early days: Dreamboat Annie, Little Queen, Magazine, Dog and Butterfly.

 

Just pulled this up on the big screen, Holy **** - if I close my eyes its Jimmy Page caressing his Les Paul, but looks even better when I open them.
Nice post

 

This Aussi can bring it !! Orianthi, once the video box comes up click on "watch on you tube prompt"

 

You beat me to her Solly, she’s hot and she rocks. I prefer her harder work - but optics on this one are hard to beat

 

Lita Ford

 

I saw Susan Tedeschi at the Yard Rock Cafe in Quincy, MA around 1995. She had such a powerful voice, I remember saying to myself that night that she would be famous some day.....
Personally Pat Benatar is my favorite. I was fortunate to see her locally in a 3000 seat venue a couple years ago. The beginning of the set was the whole band playing all her hits. The end was just her and her husband Neil Giraldo playing an acoustic show. Her voice to this day is incredible.....

 

No argument here on Pat and Neil, saw them in Philly at the tower 1980.

 

Alannah Myles

 

Stevie Nicks

 

Three remarkable female guitarists, Jennifer Batten, Gretchen Menn, and Nili Brosh performing Jeff Beck's Brush With The Blues.To me it seems a shame that they get limited exposure.

 

Vixen

 

Continuing to promote blues-rock artists. Ana Popovic form Serbia.

 

Shouldn't forget female vocalists. Beth Hart is incredibly talented, remarkable in the range of material she delivers, and a little more of recognized name than some of my other posts. Here ranging from a Janis Joplin delivery, to Etta James, to perhaps more of herself. Fantastic depth.

 

 

You nailed it Beth Hart is incredible, her performance at the Kennedy center was fantastic, just look at the expression on Buddy Guys face that says it all !!!! and Jeff Beck was pretty good too.

 

Now here is a interesting duo Golden Salt !! they are quite unique they have covered everybody from Bob Dylan to Metalica and even John Williams Schlinders List . Give these a listen.

 

And oh my gosh we can not forget Janis Joplin, she marched to a different drummer for sure but the woman oozed soul !!! and paved the way for lots of other women in rock and roll often imitated never duplicated !!

 

Suzy Quatro (American but big over here), Billie Davis, Sally Carr, the Bellstars, we had some great ones too.

Roger.

 

For whatever reason Suzi was more popular in UK than here. I had the "and Other Four Letter Words" 8-track that was actually on CBS UK label.

 

If you want us "idiot yanks" to remember Suzy, please refer to her by the name we mostly remember her for...Leather Tuscadero from Happy Days

 

 

I think Pinky was her older sister or aunt.

 

Pinky was her older sister. The Fonz had a thing for her. God I'm old!

 

Sisters Rebecca and Megan Lovell of Larkin Poe carrying the torch for roots music. Here's Preachin' Blues by the great Son House.

Hunkering down during the pandemic sharing videos from their living room. Great harmony, that perhap comes from sisterhood, on this Derek and the Dominoes classic.

Ouch that was a little harsh. If you don't know the name SUZI Quatro that's on you.

 

Touch most of the bases here. Lita Ford Debbie Harry and Joan Jett.
