Hi Ryan:

Import (to me) qualifies as accessible. More info please!

If possible, check with amazon.com!

Gracias.

manicured noise are a good example of this...girls in
the rhythm section, boys on vocals, gtrs & sax. but I
think the recent retrospective cd--the two pre singles
plus a lot of unreleased stuff-- is only available as
an import?

On the other side of the coin, it's probably not
crucial for this particular
list, but what about bands that were mostly male but
included female
instrumentalists? That was considerably more
revolutionary in the late
70s...I'm figuring that Tina Weymouth, Gaye Advert,
Pat Place and Adele
Bertei in the Contortions, etc etc might have had
just as much if not more
influence on a lot of young women at the time as far
as inspiring the
thought, "I could do that!" The so-called "chick
singer" was
well-established, but women picking up instruments
in LOUD bands that
weren't folky or jazzy was the real sea change.

Just musing a bit here...carry on...
