Women Who Rock: The '60s and '70s
Apple Music


Female musicians of the ‘60s and ‘70s incinerated the restrictive roles of previous decades. Heart and the Runaways rock as hard as any men. Janis Joplin and Linda Ronstadt can sing as passionately, while Patti Smith can write as furiously. Classic rock frontmen may pose as god's gifts to women, but Debbie Harry, Stevie Nicks, and Siouxsie Sioux show that true goddesses beat their own path.
