Your FAVOURITE ALBUM by a female?

[Icy Gull]

Not sure if we've had this before?

Anyway my nomination is an album full of soul recorded in Memphis

Dusty in Memphis

An album that showcases some brilliant songs by one of the great female voices of all time, Dusty Springfield.

They don't make 'em like her any more

 

[Smithy]

Don't know if I can pick a favourite so i'll pick a few:

Patti Smith - Horses
Joni Mitchell - Blue
PJ Harvey - Rid of Me
Janis Joplin - Pearl

 

[Spun Cuppa]

Steady On by the Prozac chomping/endorsing Shawn Colvin. Folky guitar strumming solo number. Luvverly...

 

[Phat Baz 68]

The Immaculate Collection Madonna not a song on there i don't like !!

 

[fat old seagull]

Don't know if I can pick a favourite so i'll pick a few:

Patti Smith - Horses
Joni Mitchell - Blue
PJ Harvey - Rid of Me
Janis Joplin - Pearl

IMO ...... Blue is my winner. JM at her prime and before she got all jazzy.

 

[dougdeep]

Either Pearl or Tapestry or perhaps Suicide Sal

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Joni - Hejira or Don Juan's Reckless daughter

 

[Twinkle Toes]

To Bring You My Love - P J Harvey

 

[Seagull kimchi]

North star grassman and the ravens - Sandy Denny.

 

[Baldseagull]

I like Alanis Morrisette -Jagged Little Pill and Tori Amos - Boys for Pele, unhinged angry women albums.

 

[Icy Gull]

North star grassman and the ravens - Sandy Denny.

Good call!

 

[Del Fenner]

The Dreaming - Kate Bush

With a Female singer.
