Although I'm still pretty surprised Stevie or Janis didn't make it. or Grace Slick. Or Bonnie Raitt. Or Joni Mitchell. I won't even get started on classic artists like Etta James....

Have you ever heard of Big Mama Thornton? She was a major influence on Janis, and her music is awesome. Her record of Ball and Chain is something to behold.

So yeah, the narrowminded gen x'er that made this list needs to brush up on his music.

Yeah, if cracked out gorgeous screechers are going to be that high on the list, Stevie should be number one.

WTF is with the Benatar bashers? That woman's voice can shatter ceramic, and I love her. Her voice is like a tidal wave, spinning over my head!!! She's definitely the right kind of sinner to release my inner fantasies.
It is odd to me that someone can think "women in music" and not think of Stevie, especially as everybody likes Stevie Nicks.

For real. I think she's one who does belong on the list. But I do agree that when I watch the "Invincible" video, not so much the song, it's hard to hold back a laugh or two.

So can Yoko Ono.

This list is seriously messed up. They should get rid of Gloria, Cher, Janet, Mariah, and Whitney. Replace with Stevie, Janis, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, and Grace Slick.

I turned it off when it came on TV the other night (As I did with the other "Top 20" shows that VH1 Classis is showing this week).

Yea, I think her version (the original actually) of Houndog is FAR better then Elvis's.

She really did rock out. And Stevie has mentioned her as a peer.
