Top 13 FEMALE ROCK VOCALISTS
The Top 13 of any subject is tough, actually literally impossible with musicians and singers unless broken down into many defined categories, and those lines blur as many artists creatively, and therefore legitimately, crossover into other categories.
The list of notable Female Singers across all genres and categories for the ’60s and ’70s is extremely impressive, but most of them were song stylists or Pop soloists.
The Top 13 Female Rockers are based on the imprints they made not only within the recording industry, and with their bands or fronting solo; but within the Rock ‘n’ Roll Culture and across the world in the hearts and minds of those fortunate enough to have experienced them during an exceptional Time and Space in World History – and evergreen for those forever after.
