Women Who Rock

I dunno... I don't worry about gender nor race

That said, I was underwhelmed both by Joan Jett and by Alanis Morisette when I saw them in concert (separately).  Jett was, dare I say, boring and predictable... Morisette I could barely understand the vocals even though I am familiar with her big album.

Heart, though, I did like live, twice.

I’ve known a few female drummers, and their lesser physical strength (compared to males) is a definite disadvantage. But they often play with great sensitivity and taste. Very unmasculine ;-) .

Cindy Blackman would like to have a word with you in the back alley...

^ And Sheila E, whom I also have not known. Debbie Peterson of The Bangles is a pretty darn good drummer, as was Karen Carpenter. The latter studied with Hal Blaine.

My ex wife

I dunno but…Chrissie Hynde?  Lucinda Williams?

And if you’ve  ever heard the live version of “Money Changes Everything”, ya’ just gotta include Cyndi Lauper for that in and of itself.
