5.0

These women defied genre and social convention to shape the music industry; many were overlooked due to gender. Alongside some obvious - Beyonce, Nina Simone, Patti Smith - it's a chance to learn about brilliant women I hadn't heard of in bite size chunks, like Memphis Minnie, Hazel Scott, Carol Kaye, and many many more.
