Playing tracks by
Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, Nina Simone, Etta James and more.
We begin Women's Music History Month with the two outstanding women in rock n roll: Janis Joplin and Grace Slick, two women making history in a male dominated environment who became friends both on and off the stage. From rock we move onto soul with Nina Simone, Etta James and Mavis Staples. Behind the women at that front microphone were the equally talented women writing the hits, women like Laura Nyro who wrote such classics as "Wedding Bell Blues" and "Eli's Coming." From Black Music History Month to Women's Music History Month, The Camille Conte Show is on the cutting edge when it comes to music podcasts! Enjoy.
