That's a second nomination for Girlschool.
As for Heart? I dunno. I waffle on Patti Smith and Blondie because I don't consider them to be UNKNOWN legends (as in the original list description). However, I understand people's strong reactions to their exclusion. So, I guess if Patti Smith and Blondie are being included I can't in good conscience exclude Heart, can I?

Motorhead.
Seems they have a new 2CD singles comp out:
