The Greatest Female Rock Voices You’ve Never Heard

I really enjoyed this one. Today we're counting down 9 of the greatest female hidden gems in rock history. Songs that seriously deserve the spotlight... including the heartbreaking tale of Eva Cassidy, one of the greatest voices of her generation who was virtually unknown while she was alive. She died at just 33 years old—with only a handful of songs recorded that were paid for by her aunt. The labels flat our rejected her because they didn’t know how to market her multifaceted style, but her posthumously released recordings have since sold over 12 million copies including a song that she covered that has somehow surpassed the Legendary original! We also have the incredible story of Nicolette Larson, a backup singer who found her career-launching Top 10 hit "Lotta Love" on a random cassette tape lying on the floor of Neil Young's car. He didn’t want it and just handed it to her and said "it's yours.". Plus The Primitives who broke up but then a sleazy label allowed a blockbuster movie to use their hit Crash and record a bunch of new instruments into the classic track without involving the band…crazy stories. Let’s get into it.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
