I lost interest in Cat Power when I learned it was a person, not a political movement. 

 

Sister Rosetta is the godmother of all.

[Pidge 3,783]

Shout, sister, shout.

[Tarwater 94]

 

[Jairzinho 23,034]

Sister Rosetta Sharpe was ace.

 

Cat Power is not.

[Tarwater 94]

Cat Power is probably among the most influential artists for female singer-songwriters the last 20 years.

[Tarwater 94]

 

[Skidfingers McGonical 2,882]

I love Cat Power's voice.

 

But you can't deny the influence Sister Rosetta had.

 

I've given it to Cat on the toss of a coin as didn't want to see a slaughter in the results, but cannot deny what Sister Rosetta did.

Never heard of the cunts, is Sonia in this ?? i'm waiting for her.

[Mook 17,632]

If I'd never heard of them, I would vote for Sister Thorpe purely based on that SG in the YouTube clip.

[ZonkoVille77 5,522]

Rosetta by a mile. Her influence is understated big time. 

 

Do like Cat Power though.

Surprised you have never heard of her here Mook.

[easytoslip 963]

I don't know them either so I'll go for the Sister for that video alone. She could duet with BB King. 

[SasaS 2,375]

You are all going to vote for the fake nun but I will go the other way because I feel it's time we give white people vagina music a chance.

[Jose Jones 2,639]

One for @Carvalho Diablo

and all the White People, of course.

I have heard of them, I was saying if I'd never heard of them I would've voted on the basis of the guitar.

Thread sounds like an episode of Father Ted.

About as good as it’s gets.

Jesus christ, one artist who was popular before the second World war and another one without even a Wiki page?

 

Some selection this. 

Even worse, one if them will get through to the second round, this really is the TNS of music.

GF. 

[Tarwater 94]

She does have a wiki page, but I assume you were being obtuse. Apart from being an idiot, of course. Oh, you have not heard of something, must be shit, then.

I did a search nothing came up for the cat woman.

 

But had a look now, found this, I admit she deserve to be part of a competition between the best 64 female artists of all time.
