Women in Music

[Scud49]

Judith Durham - great lead singer of the Seekers:

 

[ClifSpliffy]

un mas.

 

[Scud49]

Shania Twain and Allison Krauss - gotta be one of the best duets I've ever heard:

 

[MSGRET]

The late great Janis Joplin.

 

[64Zcode]

R.I.P. Dolores

 

[Scud49]

Rachael Price doing a beautiful - and powerful - cover of the Blind Faith classic:

 

[uconnfan68]

Wendy Waldman - North Woods Man - what a sweet country folk song:

Living is Good, The Main Refrain, Back by Fall. My favorites by her.

 

[Scud49]

The Shirelles - now this is a classic:

 

[MSGRET]

Another late great singer, Karen Carpenter and her version of "Don't Cry for Me Argentina". One of the best voices who sounded better live than in a studio.

 

[Scud49]

The Sapphires, from Philadelphia, Pa. - Carol Jackson on the lead vocals....one of those truly evocative songs from the early 60's:

Is there really no Joan Jett yet?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Definitely have gotten many of the big ones already. A couple already from Pat Benatar, but she had so many good songs, why not at least one more?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Nothing from the Go Go's or Belinda solo?

 

[nwhoopfan]

 

[nwhoopfan]

I could be at this all night if I'm not careful.

There were the big grunge bands that came out of Seattle that everybody knew about, but there was some lesser known stuff that was pretty good. Carrie Akre was in several bands--Hammerbox, Goodness, the Rockfords--and did some solo stuff.

This one is creeping up to 1 billion views. Who knew Gwen would go from dressing like this to being a fashion icon?

Saw her live a couple years ago. She took a long hiatus from music, did some acting. She dropped her stage name and now uses her given name of Alison Sudol. Didn't perform any of her older songs, but she has reasons for that.



Doing a bonus song from her. This is audio only, but probably my favorite song of hers.

A Fine Frenzy - What I Wouldn't Do

 

[nwhoopfan]

Blame it on the OP, I can probably do a couple pages just by myself. I've barely even gotten into the 21st century yet.

Bit of an odd video, but a lovely song.
