5 years ago I would have nominated Liz Phair, but she sold out BIG TIME.

I wouldn't describe Joni Mitchell as "rock chick", so she's out.

Love Chrissie Hynde.

The #1 spot has to be Patti Smith though. She broke down so many doors and really gave every performer after her the freedom to do and say whatever the fuck they wanted to, and in her own unique voice.

All you have to do is give one listen to Horses, consider when it was released and what came before/after it, and it's not hard to see.

 

[Zoots]

Does using the piano as a rock instrument count?

If so, then Tori Amos!

Another personal favorite is Dolores O Riodan from the Cranberries!

 

[financeguy]

Grace Slick

Patti Smith is my number one "rock chick"


Also perhaps Shirley Manson....

I love Stevie Nicks. Also Janis Joplin. Also Debra Harry.

 

[impy13]

Well as far as right now goes, I love me some Karen O.

She's great...whatever happened to them, anyway?

Nelly Furtado is good, from Canada...but not really rock. The women of Sleater Kinney are very talented.

 

[LeafsNation]

Cheryl Crow....by a long shot...

 

[Final Straw]

Patti Smith
Alanis Morissette

 

[angelordevil]

Annie Lennox
