Gotta vote for Pat...although that is based on when I used to work in the record biz back then.
Stevie & Nancy Wilson (Ann's sis - and MUCH better looking!) were also among rocker chicks I did promo stuff with.

*note - you left out Joan Jett - She'd have gotten some votes, I'd bet.

:pimp:pimp:pimp:pimp:pimp

for me, none of them, Grace Slick (by Jefferson Airplane days) and Janis being the closest ones, but based on my personal musical taste, attitude and rebel spirit, I'd go with Patti Smith, Blondie and Siouxsie. In that order.

Nancy Wilson was hot back in the day

Oh, believe me...I know. whew!

Someone already mentioned you left off Joan Jett so I won't mention that.

.

Grace Slick formerly of the Great Society (pre airplane/starship)

wouldnt know that one

Yeah, I knew there were ladies I left off the list when trying to pare it down. I didn't want the list to be too long. No disrespect to Joan, Chrissie, Debbie, Joan, Patti, Siouxsie, et al.

I know Linda had a great voice, and she was beautiful, but she got too much into country and other stuff for me personally to consider her a "rock chick".

No Suzi Quatro?

Or Wendy James from Transvision Vamp (Okay, pushing into pop really BUT she is by far the sexiest woman who ever lived!)

Cool story, bro! Cool pics, too.

Yeah, N Wilson was kick ass. She was hot looking and a great guitar player, too. I read that people used to ask if her guitar was plugged in - cuz they thought she was just holding it to look cute. The truth is, she can man handle a guitar.

I saw Joan playing about 10-15 years ago. I was shocked that she was totally bald, stomping around the stage in combat boots & a wife beater, totally dyked out. I missed the cool Joan from the 70s with her shiny black hair and denim jacket. But whatever, she sounded great - she was never a great singer, IMO, but she rocked out and commanded the stage.

The world would suck without hot rock chicks.

Not big enough for the poll, IMO.

Depends on the country.

Ann Wilson

yeah, not really a rock chick, but i had her poster on my wall back then :1orglaugh

Didn't we all? The topless one where she had her hands over her tits?

if you mean this then yes :1orglaugh

YAY! That's the one! It makes me feel like a teenager again seeing that!

We are all entitled to our own opinions no matter how wrong and deluded yours may be.

Chicks in metal are better, yes? :1orglaugh

Best singer, Wilson easily. Hottest combined with most hits and singing Stevie Nicks. I had such a crush on her as a kid.

Ann Wilson

i always thought cherie currie was pretty hot

That's actually Suzi Quatro yet you dont have her listed

+1 for Patti Smith But Janis is LEGEND as is Grace Slick the rest dont really deserve to be on the same list

No mention of Debbie Harry?

Well Ann is certainly the BIGGEST. :xomunch

Nancy was always my favorite of the two.



Lita Ford deserves at least a mention in this thread though

Thanks...
I have a hilarious JJ story, which is way to long to post here...but summing it up in a short version - my GF at the time, was all weirded out about me having to hang (working with) JJ at the time for 3 days.
Finally got over it, and a month later JJ opened for the Police and I had front row seats for it. Needless to say, after JJ sang "Do You Wanna Touch Me..." pretty much directly at me, my GF was pissed off again! LOL!

Nah. She's not really classic rock, IMO. She's 80s pop/cheeze metal.

Pretty cool way to make her jealous!:thumbsup

No, that's Ann Wilson.

I know. Debbie was awesome, but Blondie wasn't really classic rock in my mind. More like new wave/punk.

I hear you, she was cute, but she had no talent compared with the other chicks on the list, and she wasn't well known. So I left her off the list.

Incredible pics! Those chicks are whacked out.

I thought I knew every 80's band ever. Seems I did not.

Interesting. And yes, I would hit it.

No mention of Lita Ford?

YYYYEEEESSS indeed!
Now *there's* a name from my teenage fap-history!

I adore Joan Jett. Thanks for posting. More pics?

Also fine selections :thumbsup:thumbsup

I probably have some "buried alive"...when I can dig 'em up, I'll remember to show ya! ;-)

Stevie Nicks (Fleetwood Mac)

Janis all the way. :2 cents:

Lita Ford and Nancy Wilson. There were whole rocker chick bands like Vixen too. They had one hit anyway.

Lita ford, Joan Jett and Cherie Currie were all in the runaways together.

Very incomplete list. You left out Patti Smith, Blondie, Joan Jett to name a few.

From what you have though, it's a toss up between Grace Slick and Janis.

well, in that case Stevie Nicks isn't rock either. And let's face it, Debbie was 10x the rocker Stevie Nicks and Grace Slick were.

To me, rock is an attitude rather than a music style, and other than Janis, all of them were "cheesy rock" or AOR, at least at some point of their careers. For example, The Runaways were real rockers. Joan Jett and Lita Ford were cheesy AOR. Just my humble opinion, of course. That's why I'd take Patti, Debbie, Siouxsie (and you can add Mo Tucker, Wendy O, Exene Cervenka and someone I forgot: Chrissie Hynde!): sheer attitude, less posse, breaking stereotypes and being themselves rather than a marketing developed image. Under this light, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez and Kate Bush were more "rocker" than, say, Pat Benatar

Anyway, it's pretty surprising there are so few chicks in rock from those years, I really thought there were more.

PS: And I'll add a little known band from early 70s that was amazing: Fanny. And 2 "noobs": Kim Gordon and Kim Deal

Thread wouldn't be complete without mentioning a few great Canadian rocker chicks...Lee Aaron, Headpins (Darby Mills) and Toronto (Holly Woods).

Saw Headpins and Toronto several times at Tony's Rock 'n Roll East (in Toronto) back in the day. :thumbsup
