Women In Rock Part 2 : Various Artists | URBANASPIRINES

    Wow and Kostas over at Urbanaspirines has come up with the second part of his seven volume history of women in rock already and a fine and fascinating collection it is too! Extensive notes and mini bios on each of the gals is worth a read too. Not all to ones personal taste but that’s kinda the point . . . . . . . . great fun and a great achievement. There’s even some I hadn’t heard of which is even more the point and exciting too (Orchis? anyone? Emily Jane White? The Mojo Men? No me neither!) 

Enjoy! I know I am . . . . . .
