Ep. 7 - Women Who Rocked the 70s

Rock and roll was a man's world in the 1970s. Would that have been any  different if Janis Joplin had not died just as the 70s were beginning?  The world will never know but what is known is that women in the music industry faced challenges that men did not, simply because of their gender. This episode reviews the contributions of Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, and Chrissie Hynde in an attempt to understand how women found their place in rock, while society as a whole still struggled with granting women their full complement of civil rights. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/amy-lively/message
