The Go Go, The Bangles, The Donna's The Runaways, L7, Babes in Toyland, The Lunachicks and Lucious Jackson are just some of the awesome all female rock bands I shared a misspent youth with. You were your favourites?

The only rock(ish) ones as I wa growing up that I can remember were the Bangles, 4nonBlondes, and Wendy James (not all female though), then later when I managed to open my eyes from the pop world was Joan Jett, girlschool, and lita ford…Tina Turner could definitely rock a song too |

I have no doubt you're right. I only know that tune of theirs. I know all of The Throwing Muses but still couldn't name a member other than Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donnelly. Might be boys. |

"The Belle Stars were a fine pop/Ska band."
They were great. There music was a big part of my childhood. Jennie was also in another 80s female band "Dance like a mother" but they were one hit wonders. |

Not a rock band but I had a thing for Mel & Kim when I was young, the song was Showing Out. I can picture the video now ??
Check out the Iron Maidens and Niki Straus. Recently the singer from Jinjer has caught my eye. |

It's a cracking duo track off her album "Lita." The album had a Nikki Sixx track too (see below.)

"Suzi Quatro saw live in Reading couple times
Pat Benata also once in Reading
Girls School did not see live  "
Photographed girls school when they did the old school rock event in Sheffield. They were fantastic tbh. NWOBHM. Gutted didn’t get to interview them, that would have been awesome x Viv x |

"Not sure if anyone has mentioned Hole yet, the majority of the band are women. Yes Courtney is a bit of a dick but they still rock "
I was going to give Hole an honorable mention along with Meg White and Darcy from Smashibg pumpkins then I remember there is nothing honorable about Courtney;-p |

"All female rock bands?!!!
We've either run out or gone off track.
There was PMT..from Norwich. .. burning witches . Switzerland/Germany....7 year bitch..and tribe 8..both USA.....all female.."
I said this earlier in the thread but it didn’t get any attention - Those Dancing Days - female band from Norway I think? Their song ‘Hitten’, absolutely beautiful song that’s still on my playlist now, if I knew just one person read this post and listened to it I’d be so happy, having made the world a better place |
