Welcome to the group, Bess. I have all the Ace releases you mentioned, and I
can vouch for them all. I'm always interested in female glam stuff too. Even
though women like Suzi Quatro and Joan Jett/Runaways are inspirations, I'm
always interested in hearing from women in what was very much a
male-dominated subgenre of rock. If you're going to have boys dressed like
girls, why not cut out the middleman? Or woman?
