There is an excellent new docuseries on Amazon Prime called "Women Who Rock".

This series goes pretty much back to the beginning and continues through today.

Highly recommended!!!

@blackbag20 - That's pretty funny! And it's the reason I never got into those early Rush albums. 

@petaluman  I’ve been seeing so many of these “female” threads forever now. I chose not to comment because I would just be a Debbie Downer. 
I just couldn’t help myself this umpteenth time.  
It’s sexist and dumb to have these ideas.

People consider a male artist an….artist.
A female artist is a…”female artist.”  

It’s just stupid.  
No one would make a thread of “best male vocalists” or “men who rock.”  
Because that would be dumb.
 

@tylermunns Thanks for your response.

I guess it's a difference of opinion.  To me, "best" is dumb.  Is Baroque better than Romantic?  Hip Hop better than Jazz?  Tom Waits better than Enrico Caruso?  I don't believe in judging musicians in bpm, and different kinds of music have entirely different goals.

When I'm ready to listen, I probably choose artist or type of music first.  Sometimes I'm going for a sound, though.  It might be blues tuba or Joni Mitchell ... or it could be a woman who rocks.  The interesting thing I find in that topic is whether rocks is limited to rock.  I say no.

I gotta throw in Wendy O. Williams of the Plasmatics. In my opinion the most 'tittilating" of all the women mentioned, although Grace Slick is one also..

Never saw Wendy live; she appeared in this forum recently as among the loudest shows people have ever attended.

I believe "spirit" has no gender, but that doesn't mean I compare my father and mother as sort of identical human beings.
