OMG love her!
ReplyDeleteI saw the biopic The Runaways and became obsessed with her and Joan Jett.

@ Sixpence Notthewiser -- Thanks for suggesting her!
DeleteOops I've heard the name, but don't know her music, but I'm not expert on 70's rock.
ReplyDeleteThe Runaways were such strong, cool, edgy women! They gave us great music and were great role models for a generation of women. Power!
