Looks & talent are not equal nor should it matter.
Ann Wilson is still the undisputed Queen of Rock & Roll in my book! *I was supposed to follow in her footsteps, but alas... my path went astray.* She was a white woman w/ a LOT of soul & a way with melodies & words. Her sister, Nancy, is fuckin' killer on guitar & actually sang the lead on their first #1, 'These Dreams'. That kinda hurt my feelings 'cuz I didn't feel it was fair that Ann wasn't the lead on their first #1. Guess it doesn't really matter... Just bugs me a bit. lol So, I think you've figured out that HEART would be a vote for me. (only got to see them once & was late cuz we got lost on the way *pout*)
Sixx, I also concur w/ Steve Perry's Journey. Geez! Escape came out when I was in middle-school (yes, I'm old) & I still remember every word & note! I had the album till a few years ago. I love "Stone in Love". Great song!
My other fave band from the 80's: The Cars. They're just FUN. You don't get depressed thinking about world issues when listening to "Let the Good Times Roll".
With that said... Time for me to roll! Have a good one!
