Women & Music
To my surprise I couldn't find a thread dedicated to the amazing contribution of women in music. Something which is surely past due. So here it is.
A place to share, honour, and discuss the influences of women through-out musics history, past and present.

Women have always brought a strong and wonderfully unique essense to music.
I'll often grab for the CDs by female artist when feeling creative before male artist. For myself, their influences and contributions have always been remarkable. LOL. Within the past forty-eight hours I've only listened to female artists, as I still am.
Currently I'm listening to PINK. And probably will through-out the night.
She is Real. And an contemporary artist with True Extreme Pasion. She has a voice that would truly make Janis Joplin proud and is very moving to listen to.
She kicks and I love it.

I have to say I love a diva! I love the women that can belt out a ballad...Celine Dion, Whitney (before the drugs)....I also like the purity of some of the women's voices - one of my favourites is Sinead O'Connor Nothin Compares 2 U
Eva Cassidy
Gladys Knight
That particular vocal track by O'Connor cuts to the very core of one's heart and soul.Originally Posted by Kiran
Listening to the vocal is is both heart-wrenching and heart-breaking.
Watching the video makes the song even more personal... and painful, though the pain is leavened by empathy (for those of us who have visited that dark place).
... Joan Baez ...
A little trivia ... *he-he* ... I saw her in New Bedford Mass at a recording studio.

Listening to the music of Loreena McKennitt is for myself like weaving fine tapestries of the mind and soul. Another very fine artist.
