I agree.  :) 

Carly and Carole were more like folk-rock singers...not Rockers!

A toss-up between Janis (for sheer undiluted passion in the voice) and Suzi (for making 'leathers' an art-form...!!)

I voted for Heart because they became popular before The Pretenders...as fo Janis...she was a fantastic singer but her style was Blues

I feel obliged to put my vote in for Joan Jett here, who has a great rock singing voice IMHO and walked the talk from Day One.

She did a lot for rock women but she wasn't around before Heart :-\\

she was a fantastic singer but her style was Blues

So was Led Zeppelin's.  That's why I'm going with Janis, and also because, um, Heart weren't very good.

It doesn't matter who was around first, it's who was more influential for women in rock, regardless of who was "around first."
