Fridge Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Stevie Nicks by far......Janis had a terrific voice full of soul and passion, but she didn't write songs. Stevie is the complete package as she is a stellar songwriter in addition to having a wonderful voice. Gold Dust Woman still sends shivers up my spine. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powderfinger Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I like Janis Joplin, so much so that I assign a book about her in my upper-division US history course. But I LOVE Stevie Nicks--for my money one of the greatest female vocalists of the classic rock era. Stevie is also a great songwriter, whereas Janis only wrote a handful of songs, and her most memorable songs are not her own. Again, I don't at all mean to slight Janis here; Janis's contributions to blues rock and women's position within the music industry are undeniable. But voting for Stevie is a no-brainer for me.

Mithrandir Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Janis Joplin I hear a lot of Janis in Geddy's voice early on, esp on that ABC live recording I can totally hear Janis signing Garden Road That doesn't help her case as Garden Road is pretty weak. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordgalaxy Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 You people... Rush fans are supposed to be smart! :/ How is Stevie winning this? No one had more soul than Janis!! Check out mama cass in this video.. she's the one with her mouth hanging open in awe ! http://youtube.com/watch?v=5N5Wh7mm_qUShe's a better singer who didn't kill herself with heroin and people like her more? Just a guess. If you want soul, try Aretha Franklin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
