Well, a mate of mine said " why talk about women in rock ?" I answered "why not?" .
Let's face it ..... women have excelled in rock ever since Janis Joplin hit the scenes.
C'mon let's give the ladies a hand of applause too :)
One of my fav rockin' ladies

It’s hard to believe a black woman was rocking a mean ass blues guitar like that back in to 1940’s

Sometimes I think women need to take the lead in a way in music, but also in art, literature, culture, etc. 'Tis about time I think....and I say this as a male:).
I work in an all female office and I love it. We get along very well and I know the girls for a long time.....20 years....there are times when we fight and differ in our ideas, but basically there is max respect and no chauvinism.
I love all women :)

Memphis Minnie…..she has even been covered by Led Zeppelin.

her story is sad. She died in a nursing home and was buried in an unmarked grave. Bonnie Raitt gave her grave a headston.


here it is…..When The Levee Breaks
