Summary From chanteuses to blues belters and guitar slingers, Ochs provides fifty female artists and groups. She shows how they not only illustrate the width and breadth of rock music-- they define it. Presented chronologically from the birth of rock today, these women rockers shook up the music scene. Their stories are inspirational-- and their art is timeless. -- adapted from back cover and introduction
