Great Female vocalists from a very long time ago – 17 of the best

Here (in no particular order) are some of my favourite female vocalists from the 60s, 70s and 80s and one even earlier, each with a link to one of their best songs (imho).

Each song was first recorded more than 25 years old.

Yes of course there are many other great female voices from more recent years but if you don't know these then they are worth a listen.

If you do, enjoy a little nostalgia.
