Helen Bach found this list of gay women in music here:
A lesbian cuture website.
I am going post some names of the most imprtant gay women in music. Incidentally, they don’t mean the record biz, which is an entirely other question.
What Helen didn’t know was that i’ve been planning a gays in rock post all weekend and not getting to it.
I still am.
Till then:
1. Melissa Etheridge (being gay isn’t an excuse for sucking)
2. Dusty Springfield (A legend)
3. Amy Ryan (Indigo Girls -yuck)
4. KD Laing (what a singer)
5. Ma Rainey (Woooot!)
6. Beth Ditto
7.Joan Jett
8. June Millinton (Fanny)
9. Linda Perry (4 Non Blondes)
10. Carrie Brownstein…
