      Don't. Why is everyone so obsessed with this boring and obsolete MUSEUM? RnR has always a thing of the moment, not for conservation - and it did certainly not belong to the critics and the industry, at least not completely. The RnRHoF is a pile of stinking old men conserving what is of no interest so anyone any more. No one cares for that, no one need it except for the company guys who run it. The only ones who got that right were the Sex Pistols when they refused to go there. Let's just acknowledge that these women were great in what they were doing, and period. And so you don't get me wrong: I loved that band already when I was 15, i.e. in 1974.

    Four amazing musicians, three lead singers, and one of the best drummers in 70s rock. They weren't the only band to be ahead of their time, or to have a record company committed to making them sound bad, but they were one of the most talented. Music doesn't lie. People must have known how good they were.

      Actually Alice did lead vocals on the track, Rock Bottom Blues, she's quite the talent with her vocals as well! The lyrics are quite meaningful for the times for females back then & her esp! If you listen closely, Alice drops the F bomb in that recording! It is not showin on lyrics here but it's clear on the track! Lol
      I've been in every kind of band and show, from Bangor, Maine to Boise, Idaho
      I’ve had my troubles and I’ve paid my dues, but still I’m saddled with these same old blues
      I started out when I was young and green; been on the road since I was sweet sixteen
      Somehow I haven’t sold a single song; somebody tell me where did I go wrong.
      Chorus: Sittin’ dreamin’ on a street corner, wondering how to keep warm
      I’m so darn broke, I’m down to my last toke; I’m a child of the windy storm.
      I took my story to a man who knew; he told me “I can make a star of you.”
      Took me for everything that I called mine; now I’m stranded on the dotted line
      I spent a summer in the county jail; my local voted not to pay my bail
      They’re never with you when the times are hard; I feel like tearing up my union card
      Chorus: Sittin’ dreamin’ on a street corner, wondering how to keep warm
      I’m so darn broke, I’m down to my last toke; I’m a child of the windy storm.
      Rock Bottom blues got me down…..
      I’ll keep on rolling like the stone of old; through rain and fire and the freezing cold
      I’m bitten by the rock and roll disease; So, won’t you help me make a record please?
      Chorus: Sittin’ dreamin’ on a street corner, wondering how to keep warm
      I’m so darn broke, I’m down to my last toke; I’m a child of the windy storm.

The only 2 real notable "rock" women artists within hard rock's history were Janis Joplin and maybe the 1970s version of Heart and they were all white and you could include Joan Jett and Pat Benatar, but, Bonnie Tyler, Kim Carnes the Go Go's and the Bangles were minor in the grand scheme of rock history. Tower Of Power was a funk band, not a "rock" group, and the white rock establishment never considered another black man or woman as a prominent "rock" artist other than Jimi Hendrix; even Tina Turner was not thought of as a female "rock artist", however gritty her vocals were. Living Colour was the only black group to have some success in the commercial rock world (unlike Fishbone, Bad Brains and 24-7 Spyz) and Prince was never considered a "rock guitarist" and musician really until he appeared live on stage with Tom Petty & friends and played that killer solo on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", and Prince's compositions mostly catered to the "black sound" and sensibilities throughout most of his music. Motown was a black enterprise that was never in rock category during their heyday and that was a commercial and black R&B entity.

    I recalled (barely) one of their songs (Butter Boy) upon hearing it again on an old compilation album I bought in 1996 that triggered memories of when I was about 6 or 7, when that song was released. Just now I was watching some of Fanny's past performances on youtube and they blow me away! These ladies were nothing short of inhabiting straight up-raw, heartfelt, energetic, vocally mesmerising, mind-blowing rock and roll talent that would, without a doubt, impress and amaze the young generation of Rock and Roll fans today.
    Judging by the comments I have read, there are quite a few others who, like me, have only recently become aware of, or fully taken note of, and fully appreciated what a SUPER band Fanny was. I'm grateful to live in a time where technology can transport some elements from the past into our present lives so I could rediscover a band that I know I would have really loved, enjoyed, and been a great fan of had they not been so unjustly overlooked, underpromoted, and allowed to fall through the cracks of the contemporary music scene.
    With that being said, I'm also glad that Fanny's rediscovery is something being experienced by many others as well, making it a life event which is taking place beyond "just me" and therefore, that much cooler!
