Yep, Ann Wilson IS the greatest female rock vocalist to ever live, and everybody else is a very distant second, at least in terms of skill and talent, if not influence. Nancy Wilson is easily the most influential female guitarist of her generation and is also a great singer and multi-instrumentalist. These ladies are legendary and yet they're still underrated. They've sold millions of albums and are the most successful female fronted band of all time and yet they still haven't got the true recognition they deserve. THAT's how good they are

We would sit outside listening to them practice after school. You would see them in their matching Porches (Ann’s black, Nancy’s white) around town. Then a couple years later my little sister dated their managers son. Im 62 now, I’ll never forget those years.

In the 70s, there were VERY few hard rock female singer/songwriters out there. We had ABBA, Fleetwood Mac, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin was gone, Patti Smith was a rock force to contend with, but Patti was more of a punk poet in her approach. Kate Bush had begun breaking every rule by this time, although an extraordinary voice, Kate was not hard rock. Actually the ONLY real competitor would be Pat Benetar, and she arrived on the scene at least 5 years after the Wilson sisters. But in the end, Ann Wilson was clearly among those special ones; Freddy Mercury, Robert Plant, Steve Perry, Ann Wilson... I think Ann's most extraordinary vocal work is the song 'Mistral Wind' from 'Dog and Butterfly' check it out and tell me if you think they were just trying to be Zeppelin, or were Heart much like Rush, actually another band that carried the same calibre of weaponry??

I like that you're starting out with these older tracks, it's laying a good foundation for anything that comes after. The base sound as far as the guitar and drums go, it really reminds me of Kashmir. It's repetitive and may not be super complicated, but it's literally 2 of their best songs respectively. I vote for Crazy on You next! I can send a link so you have the best one for when you react to it (whenever that will be). I'm not sure about band but if someone else said then it must be true lolol.

In almost all cases those classic rock acts from this era have no competition in quality, creativity, breadth and diversity. Then I discovered Floor Jansen, just saying.

They have been playing since 1967 (under other names) and as Heart since 1973. There have been 30 or so members who have come and gone during that time. Ann plays flute and sings, Nancy is her sister, and she plays rhythm guitar and vocals. They also have a lead guitar, a drummer, a bassist, and usually a keyboardist. There really weren't music videos as such when Baraccuda came out in 1977. MTV didn't go on the air until 1981, so people didn't really focus on visuals except in performance. Ann is my favorite singer. She is high on everone's list, for sure, but some might argue for where at the top she goes with singers like Grace Slick, Joni Mitchell, Patty Smith, Janis Joplin, and later, Debbie Harry, Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, and Pat Benatar, and later yet, Amy Lee and Lzzy Hale, among many others. I was born in 1967 and grew up on Heart, since my brothers were much older and shaped my musical tastes. I very seldom go to concerts because crowds bug me, but I've seen Heart live 4 times, which is the most of any other band or artist. I always wanted to sing like Ann. I think when you did Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven I suggested you listen to Heart's performance of the song at the Kennedy Center honors for Led Zeppelin. I still highly recommend...it's epic.

Just to be clear, this is the studio track and the video is from a 1978 concert, cut and synced up to the original album audio. Also, there were three guitarists, and the guy with the burst colored Strat also owned an Esquire (Telecaster variant) that he bought from the guitarist in Steppenwolf, and was used on tracks like “Born To Be Wild”, “Magic Carpet Ride”, and “The Pusher”

That Wilson sisters could definitely rock the stadium. Saw them in 1979 and 1981 at The Day of Rock and Roll in the New Orleans Superdome. One of the greatest rock bands in my life time.

I am 57 years old and remember a lot of the music from the 70s and 80s. Heart and Ann Wilson are definitely one of my favorite bands from that era. There were a few other female vocalists from that time period that you might want to check out. Most of them were more Pop music. Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac, Karen Carpenter of The Carpenters, Helen Reddy, Anne Murray and Olivia Newton-John. Those are the only other female vocalists that I can remember from the 70s. A few more came along in the 80s, but Heart started in the 70s. I really enjoy their music.

I spent a lot of my life obsessing over the guitar in this song before realizing that the drums are the real story. Fantastic. Oh, and this is the studio track over a live performance. This performance with its live audio IS out there, though.

Ann Wilson has MY vote as Top Female Rock Vocalist. Literally. In 1982 or so, I was hanging out in my Northern Virginia High School's hallway when a friend ran up and exclaimed "Hey, Joe! DC 101 just said your name, saying you had chosen Ann Wilson as your favorite female rock vocalist in that poll they did!" Cool! I blushed from my 15 minutes of fame. I find it impossible to choose now. Same for male vocalists. It's subjective, man. But my God is she--AND Heart--unbelievably great!

Anne Wilson is #1. The most overlooked female rock vocalists may be Nicky Barclay & Jean Millington, who shared most lead vocals on the 1st Female Rock band w/a major Record deal, FANNY. Listen to Nicky on Blind Alley(while playing keys) And Jean on Special Care or Young and Dumb. Especially from the YT videos, of the rock TV show Beat Club, in '71. Tour de Force. If you dont love it, I'll eat my hat. Overlooked becse in 70 -74 the U.S. didn't know what to do w/ female rock. Never been before. And it didn't help the 2 most prominent members didn't look like most Americans. But they had the respect of their peers, like Bowie, Joe Cocker, Ect...try the Beat Club recordings. Or Blind Alley, Special Care, Changing Horses, Borrowed Time off an album. great reaction, Peace.. Pat Benetar, Grace Slick, Chrissy Hine, Stevie Nick's all deserve their spots.

@6:24 "The main riff is very powerful" - also known as the "heavy metal gallop", although metal usually plays it faster. eg: pretty much anything by Iron Maiden. Try "Run to the Hills". @7:53 The outro is in 7:4. Count "one, two, three, four / one, two, three". Other female rock vocalists call Annie "The Queen".

I would have to say Ann is on par with Karen Carpenter for vocal influence. Very different genres, but the quality of each voice, the purity, & control of their vocal instruments are equal for me.
