Well, Gwen Stefani has become more of a pop icon then a rock icon, so I say ALANIS.

Have to agree completely, since Marianne cannot properly be considered a rocker... :)

Debbie Harry, Joan Jett & Lita Ford were a force to be reckoned with in the 70's & 80's.

I'll stick to those as my all-time faves.

You're not an old Buckeye are you Zella?

Since I posted this yesterday, I've thought of a BUNCH more and said "now how could I have forgotten her?" I guess the fairer sex HAS contributed to R&R!!

Great topic, although I am more partial to the male rockers, there are definitely some legendary female ones.   ;)

Hmm, I am a big fan of Melanie Safka, especially Lay Down (Candles in the Rain), just a brilliant protest song.

Joan Baez, mainly for her Dylan covers more than anything.  She does a great Blowin' in the Wind, although incomparable (sp?) to Dylan's, she still does a good job.

And finally, my favourite would definitely have to be Janis Joplin, she epitomised rock and roll - at least from a female perspective.  Me and Bobby McGee is one of my all time favourite songs.

A little OT here, but regarding Me and Bobby McGee, has anyone heard Kris Kristofferson's version of it?  I know he wrote it, but he just ain't Janis when it comes to singing it.

I love Pat Benatar and Joan Jett.  All that talent, beauty and attitude!  When I was a kid my dream was to be Joan or Pat and marry Eddie Van Halen. ;D

I'd forgotten Warlock - I saw her supporting must have been DC or Dio a long time back.  Though for some reason, I can't remember what the music was like at all...

I'd have to say Joan Jett, or possibly Suzy Quattro.
