[Cave Carson]

Speaking of Lee Aaron at the Mississauga Tavern, how about Biff Naked from Vancouver?

 

[SoldierBoy]

Darby Mills of the Headpins - what a voice!

SB

 

[dax]

No Cher, eh? Okay, how about Pat Benatar? Christine McVie? Siouxsie?

 

[Don]

Pat Benetar was always a fav of mine.

 

[homonger]

Is this sbout who is the most talented, most influential, or hottest?

In terms of overall influence, I like Paul Waters' list, and would add Madonna, Grace Slick, Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, Gwen Stefani, and believe it or not, Cyndi Lauper.

 

[twobigo]

Janis Joplin , absolutely, but my love of older soul music will show through with these picks..Aretha Franklin, Etta James and Candi Staton.I know ..who the hell is Candi Staton?

 

[thecoolguyms72]

I thought we were talking Rock 'N' Roll? Aretha is the Queen of Soul, I thought? Not the Queen of Rock!!

There are some good picks here, Annie Lennox for sure!

 

[Speedo]

My faves are, Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Janis Joplin and Grace Slick...(yeah, I'm ancient).

And a wonderfully versatile singer who could've been a great rocker if she'd wanted to go that route is Janis Siegel of Manhattan Transfer...

 

[thecoolguyms72]

I personally like Nancy Drew of Luxury Christ. I just think she's a cute little hottie.

 

[Monet]

Stevie Nicks....she reminds me of a freindly favorite SP as well!
Add Madona...a real button pusher.
Debbie Harry, Chrissie Hynde, Annie Lennox

 

[gibsomstreet]

Four pages on, and no mention of Neko Case. Shame

 

[aptenodytes]

Courtney Love??
If I were Kurt, I woulda killed myself too, just to get away from her.

 

[UnMEnXTC]

I thought this was about Rock-n-roll.

Brenda-Lee (little miss dynomite)

The Supremes

Mary Hopkins (who remembers her?)

 

[train]

No offense , but the only thing worse than having Alanis on your list would be having Celine on it .

 

[DenWa]

I agree train...

Celine Dion, Alanis Morissette, and Courtney Love may very well be the three most irritating and overrated women in music.

[wrong hole]

Well Courtney Love never composed her own songs, it was either done by Cobain or Billy Corgan

...and since she 'might' have killed one of them and piss the other one off, that's why we haven't seen a new album from 'Hole' in a long time

 

[revolver]

I'm surprised there's been no mention of Carole King. She wrote a lot of good old tunes. And, Tapestry is a classic album.

 

[twobigo]

Celine Dion is to rock like ragweed is to flowers..yechh!

Ronnie Spector
