Richard Moore

Hoping Sandy Denny (Fairport Convention) makes the cut. I think I tried to get this beautiful song onto the Daily Doug previously.

Richard Moore

Also voted for Flack, Ronstadt, Summer, and Anderson. Would have chosen Joplin if I only had a sixth vote!

Phil West Music

Shame there’s no Florence! Would love to hear your take on What The Water Gave Me

Great poll! I don't expect Esperanza Spalding to win but I'm happy just to see her mentioned, well worth checking out for any jazz heads!

George Davis-Stewart

An impossible mixture of genres and talents, generations indeed, from which to have to narrow down. I might have offered early Elkie Brooks (Vinegar Joe), Linda Hoyle (Pieces of Me), Marianne Faithfull (Broken English), Carla Bley, Annette Peacock, Lucy Swann if I had signed in.

John Clark

If the Donna Summer version of State of Independence makes it through I would hope that the good doctor follows it up by listening to the original by Jon & Vangelis.

Richard Plante

Great list, wish my submission of Halestorm was getting a little bit more love. But it’s still a lot of great choices.

Karl Stubsjoen

It just had to be Jon Anderson's great "State of Independence" and Donna Summer!

Tom Brophy

What! No Sinead. I picked a great one too....Fine then LOL.

I really hope Tal Wilkenfeld makes the cut.

Eusebio R-Z

The theme is women in music and there are no women in that duo... Jon Anderson may have a voice with a pitch range higher than most men but, as far as we know he is not a woman :P

Happy that Alanis is doing well. I had to vote for Laurie to because of multiple reasons 🕊️
