A few of my favourite female artists
Poly Styrene of X-Ray Spex - Extraordinarily influential but virtually unknown, she resisted record company stereotyping and remained true to herself. It's interesting to note her various looks and style are now common and used by many female artists today but she was, and will remain, a true original. It breaks my heart to think she is no longer with us, the world is a poorer place with her not in it. Bjork - here as lead-singer with the Sugarcubes. This is the Icelandic language version of Birthday. A powerful piece. Kate Bush - The fist female solo artist to reach the UK number 1 spot with a self-penned composition with Wuthering Heights in 1978, inventor of the head-set microphone, self-coreographed her own world tour - it is now the exception rather than the rule that a female pop artist performs without backing dancers. This is 'Pull out the Pin' a strange and wonderful anti-war song from The Dreaming album. Laurie Anderson - began her career working on performance art pieces with Andy Kaufman. In 1983 she recorded a 4 hour (5 album) live performance of United States (worth getting on CD if you can find a copy) which included a live version of the piece, O Superman which had taken the world by storm earlier in 1981. Here are 2 tracks, the afore mentioned, beautifully haunting 'O Superman', which is simply one of the most original pieces ever written, and another piece from United States called Big Science. The latter title was used for an album of studio recordings of selected pieces from United States. O Superman Big Science
"The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions" - Leonardo da Vinci
"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)
Kate Bush is good.
