Nice to see someone give recognition to a well-known Chicago blues standard of the 60's & 70's.  I've had the pleasure of seeing her live on the bar circuit in Chicago.

Here she is beltin' out I'm A Woman.  This is off of the same album as Wang Dang Doodle, her '78 The Earthshaker.

Melanie's voice has definitely changed to a (Grand)Ma's.

Hard to pick a single tune from Tina Turner's decades long discography.  Maybe I'll just go with The Best.  Off of her '89 Foreign Affair album.
 

 

This incredibly talented female vocalist doesn't get the recognition these days that I believe she deserves.  Joan Baez with the title track off of her '75 Diamonds And Rust LP.
 

 

 

Annie Lennox of The Eurythmics with the title track of their '83 Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) album.
 

 

Another incredible Irish vocalist, Dolores O'Riordan and The Cranberries with Zombie off of their '94 No Need To Argue album.
 

 

And yet another superbly talented Irish vocalist, Eileen Henry of Chimera.  Catch Me from their excellent '96 Earth Loop album.  They made it on a tour to the States but unfortunately they never gained traction.  They have been frequently compared to the Sundays, Cocteau Twins and the Cranberries.

 

 

Dionne Warwick with Walk On By off of her '64 Make Way For Dionne Warwick LP.
 

 

The Crystals with the Phil Spector produced He's a Rebel, the title track of their '62 album.

 

 

Ruth Brown with her '53 hit single Mama He Treats Your Daughter Mean.
 

 

Buddy Holly was born on this day.

Great drumming!

 

Happy Birthday Chrissie Hynde

The Hendrix classic

Carly Simon with You're So Vain, rumoured to have been directed toward Warren Beatty, off of her '72 No Secrets LP.  Just to note, it's an interesting location they chose for the play button.
 

 

Wow!  No one's massaged that PLAY button yet?  55555555555

Continuing with bobandyson's excellent theme here's Carole King with the title track of her '71 Tapestry LP.
 

 

One of her best.

I agree with your selection, bannork.  Carole King's song has been covered by a lot of artists.  A lot of weak covers, in my opinion, but this Pretenders' version cut in '97 is very worthy.
 

 

Barbara Lewis with the title track off of her '63 Hello Stranger album.
 

 

Lesley Gore with It's My Party off of her '63 I'll Cry If I Want To album.
 

 

The Go-Go's with Our Lips Are Sealed off of their '81 Beauty And The Beat debut LP.
 

 

The first all-girl band to sign with a major record label, Goldie & The Gingerbreads covering Herman's Hermits Can’t You Hear My Heartbeat in '65,
 

 

Heart throbs of bannork as he was reaching puberty?  The Liverbirds, an all-girl band out of Liverpool, with a live performance of the chart topping smash hit Peanut Butter on the Beat Club 25 Sept. '65.
