I haven't seen a thread on this yet though I sure some joker is going to find one in the archives from 1965. Anyway, I'm curious which female (musically speaking though I'll admit Pat Benatar was hot) rocked your world, literally.


I would have done a poll but there are so many great women musicians out there. I can think of Patti Smith, Benatar, Joan Jett, PJ Harvey, Liz Phair, Aimee Mann, and Sam Phillips to name a few. I guess you can also include band leaders like Kim Deal (Breeders) for example.


Anyway, who out there pops your cherry?

Kate Bush definitely.

I really like Sheila E too.

I think I'd go for Suzi Q. First female bass player to make it big, plus she was a crush of mine. Just so different to the female stars of the time. Kate too, and I'd have to include I suppose Tina Turner as well, given what she went through and how famous she became despite that.

Considering Kate Bush's musical style and Sheila E primarily being known as a member of George Duke's jazz band, I wouldn't consider either of those ''Rockers''

Even so, I'd probably say either Benatar, Joplin or Nicks

There is sufficient 'rock' there imo.

I missed Suzi Q. She was awesome until Happy Days ruined her.

I guess I should mention my favorite is the legendary Patti Smith.

Of the ones I think of as being first and foremost a rock artist, PJ Harvey for sure.

PJ Harvey is probably second to Patti Smith on my list. She seems to get better with time too. I love Let England Shake especially.
