Rock music’s greatest frontwoman

The Go-Gos are a girls vocal group, too.

lol

I just "discovered" I no longer had "Edge of Seventeen" (Songs not transferring onto a new laptop) but I don't have anything by Pat - could never stand her voice or her hit. I haven't heard it in a long time, and it's pretty hard with the "Edge of Seventeen" playing right now, trying to match up or at least understand more than a few words, but there's still songs by The Doors I can't make out, because I listen to vocal as if they were another instrument. How it sounds, how its utilized, vibrato, falsetto, chest, throat, etc.

I do remember correcting my political science teacher in high school when he said Fleetwood Mac.. Now I just remembered when he played an Alanis Morrisette song (wish I remember, so I could read the lyrics, it was 1998), and a few students ridiculed it or said something that wasn't positive about it, because he turned it off, and said something like, "Have an open mind" and he was probably right. He's still there, and actually "liked" a political comment of mine.. He asked what we remembered about his class, and I still remember the first quote of the day (Bertrand Russell) and remember how he'd always play "That's The Way" by Led Zeppelin, but the BBC version.

I think someone like Linda Ronstadt would be different, since her band changed a million times and didn't always play on the records. Pat Benatar and her husband, and most of the band stayed the same, and wrote and recorded with her, during the glory years. That's different from a back-up band or touring group like Ronstadt used.

Tina is around the edges of Rock Music depending on how one defines it, but she def deserves to be mentioned in the conversation. Back when I first heard of Ike and Tina Turner, as a kid I never understood why Ike was included at all, she was that much in front. She really is the essence of both Talent and Charisma. She really does Rock.
