VA - Girls! Girls! Girls! 600 American Girl Smashes of the Swinging Sixties (Super Deluxe Edition) [2023] (21 x CDs]
The 1960s were a decade filled with political and social action, civil rights, and feminist activism. The music world saw a shift away from the popular rock and roll of the 1950s and an emergence of folk music and all-female singing groups.
It also brought a revolution in modern music, from rock ’n’ roll to folk to R&B, and much more. Many of the most important contributions were made by female singers. These best female artists of the 60s left a permanent mark not just on music but on culture as we know it today.
The counterculture of the sixties culminated in the 1969 music festival Woodstock. This four-day festival in New York saw over 400,000 attendees, about eight times as many as organizers expected.
Aretha Franklin was one of the biggest stars of the 60s. She was born in Memphis, Tennessee, and started singing gospel music when she was a child.
She was one of the most talented and influential singers not just in the 60s but the entire 20th century. Her unique style and dynamic vocals helped shape the modern music scene, earning her the nickname the “Queen of Soul.”
Franklin started out singing gospel music in her father’s church before signing her first record label in 1960. But it wasn’t until 1966 that she became widely known. In 1967, she released the album I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You.
The most famous song on the album was “Respect,” which remains one of her most well-known and beloved songs to this day. The song was originally written by Otis Redding from the perspective of a man; Franklin took the song and made it her own, shaping it into a powerhouse anthem of confidence, and became a popular song in the feminist movement. It also won two Grammy Awards.
She was the first woman to ever be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. This American pianist and singer started off as a gospel singer and rose to become one of the biggest stars in the USA along with a black empowerment icon.
She moved to New York at the age of 18 and released her first album, Aretha, in 1961 with the Ray Bryant Combo. Her self-titled album was a mix of doo-wop, jazz, and R&B.
Franklin’s other hits included “Chain of Fools” and “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman.”
Janis Joplin who began singing blues and rock tunes in coffee shops and bars quickly became one of the most successful and well-known rock stars of her time. Along with her mesmerising, husky voice, she was known for her raw, powerful vocals and energetic stage presence.
Considering how short her career was, it is amazing how much Janis Joplin contributed to the development of contemporary rock and roll and blues music. She is widely considered one of the pioneers of the psych rock genre, which would go on to influence the development of popular music throughout the 20th century.
She used her unique appearance to her advantage, characterizing the flamboyant hippie look of the 60s with feather boas, wild hair, and extra-large glasses. Her characteristic gravelly voice drew on influences of blues and jazz. Joplin was known for her dynamic live performances and her music that seamlessly combined blues and psychedelic rock.
Famous songs from the 60s: ‘Piece of My Heart’, and 'Down on Me'.
Nina Simone. Eunice Kathleen Waymon) known to the masses as Nina Simone and The High Priestess of Soul created music consisting of jazz, folk and blues. An activist and one of the most popular black female singers in the 60s, she combined hard-hitting lyrics with a piano to convey the plight of inequality.
Famous songs: ‘Feeling Good’, ‘I Put a Spell on You', 'My Baby Just Cares for Me'.
Etta James. As a girl of five, she was known around her Los Angeles community as the gospel prodigy. Her powerful voice makes her one of the greatest blues singers of the modern era.
She was one of the defining voices of many genres during the 1960s. In the latter part of her career, her earlier music was already considered to be standards of blues, jazz, soul, R&B, and rock and roll.
James got her start in the early 50s when she was only 15 years old. Already, her rich contralto voice was gaining her attention, and she released her first single before she was out of her teens. Her early music fused elements of R&B and doo-wop. This type of musical innovation would follow her throughout her career.
Her most famous song was 1961’s “At Last,” which perfectly showcased her rich, intense vocals. James received many awards and honors during her career, including induction into the Blues Hall of Fame and the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. She was granted a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2003 and earned her final Grammy for her last album, released in 2005.
Famous Songs: ‘At Last’, ‘I'd Rather Go Blind', 'Tell Mama'.
Dionne Warwick is an iconic black female singer in the 60s who won six Grammys and charted over 75 hit songs. Her records have sold over 100 million records worldwide. Warwick crossed cultural, racial, and national boundaries with her soulful blend of genres such as R&B, pop and gospel. Furthermore, the singer is also a TV host, actress and a former Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization.
Unlike most other professional singers of the time, she was highly educated in music, having studied at the Hartt College of Music on a scholarship. In 1962, she signed on with a recording studio and quickly climbed to the top of the charts. Her smooth and mellow voice made her successful in both pop music and R&B.
Her 1969 song “Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” earned her her first Grammy - she would go on to earn five more.
Famous Songs: ‘Walk on By’, ‘Do You Know the Way to San Jose?’, ‘Anyone Who Had a Heart'.
Diana Ross. Diane Ernestine Earle Ross known popularly as Diana Ross is one of the most iconic female singers in the 60s. Ross sang primarily in the Pop, R&B and Soul genres.
Ask anyone for the best female vocalists of the 60s, and there’s a good chance that they will say, Diana Ross. This decade-shaping musician’s powerhouse voice is instantly recognizable.
She started her career with the girl group The Supremes, recording with Berry Gordy’s Motown Records. The group got its start in 1961 but wasn’t widely known until they released “Where Did Our Love Go” in 1964. One of the major reasons for The Supremes' rise in popularity is the vocals provided by Diana Ross which made them a contender to The Beatles. The Supremes were record breakers from the earliest parts of their career. They were the first musical group to have five chart-topping songs in a row. They were also the first black group to perform in white venues. As a youth, Ross had dreams of being a fashion designer, and The Supremes’ glamorous style became their trademark along with their powerful vocals.
Due to her solo work as well as her time as lead singer of The Supremes in the 1960s, Ross is one of the most successful artists of her generation.
Famous Songs: 'Baby Love', 'You Can't Hurry Love', 'You Keep Me Hangin' On'.
Ronnie Spector was one of many famous 60s female singers who paved the way not just for their stunning vocals but also for their unique style. She stood out from the well-known musicians of previous decades. Not only did she have a rough, gravelly voice and a noticeable Harlem accent, but she was also mixed race, with a white father and a mother who was black and Cherokee.
Spector got her start with the group The Ronettes. The ensemble pioneered the Wall of Sound genre, with complex instrumentals and inspiration from Latin music and rock and roll. Other groups who later adapted this style include Amy Winehouse, Ramones, and the Beach Boys.
In addition to their dynamic music and complex backing instrumentals, The Ronettes were widely recognized for their daring fashion style, which was characterized by elaborate hairdos and dramatic eyeliner. This image - along with her musical influence—earned Spector the nickname the Original Bad Girl of Rock and Roll. The 60s brought a revolution in modern music, from rock ’n’ roll to folk to R&B, and much more. Many of the most important contributions were made by female singers. These best female artists of the 60s left a permanent mark not just on music but on culture as we know it today.
Famous Songs: ‘Be My Baby', 'Baby, I Love You', 'Walking in the Rain'.
Brenda Lee was one of the most popular and influential singers of the 60s, although history doesn’t remember her as well as many other musicians of the same era. She began her career when she was still a child, performing country music on television.
She became more famous with the emergence of the rockabilly genre during the last part of the 50s. Throughout the 60s, Lee successfully transitioned between genres such as country, rockabilly, and pop. One of her earliest hits was “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,” released in 1958. In 1960, her song “I’m Sorry” became a hit.
Throughout the decade, Lee became synonymous with Nashville sound, using orchestral music to provide background for powerful, moving ballads.
Tina Turner is one of the best-selling musical artists in history and has earned the nickname “the Queen of Rock n’ Roll.” Her successful career has spanned seven decades, earning her twelve Grammy awards and even breaking a Guinness World Record for the biggest audience for a solo performer.
She first appeared in 1957 in the group Ike Turner’s Kings of Rhythm before appearing as a duo in 1960. Ike and Tina were one of the most popular double acts of the 60s and 70s, releasing songs such as “River Deep - Mountain High,” “Proud Mary,” and many more.
She has won countless awards, including a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and not one but two inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Martha Reeves was an influential singer in several genres over the 60s, including Motown, R&B, and pop. She first started singing gospel music before becoming interested in other genres.
She was working as a secretary at the Hitsville USA Studios when singer Mary Wells could not make it to a recording session. Reeves jumped in to provide the needed backup vocals, giving producers a chance to recognize her talent. She and her group The Vels were hired to back up Marvin Gaye on several tracks, including “Stubborn Kind of Fellow.” The song became wildly popular and catapulted the group - now called Martha and the Vandellas - to fame.
Throughout the decade, Reeves and her bandmates were pioneers of Motown, paving the way for The Supremes and other groups. They had many defining hits of the 60s, earning them induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Cher, born Cherilyn Sarkisian, has been such an influential musician that she played a role in the development of music not just in the 60s, but also in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Her career has lasted for six decades thanks to her unique looks, powerful voice, and avant-garde musical style, which has consistently been ahead of the industry.
Her career was supposed to begin as a solo act, but Cher was crippled by stage fright - so she reached out to fellow musician Sonny Bono, who eventually became her husband. They skyrocketed to popularity after releasing their duet “I Got You Babe” in 1965.
Connie Francis. Concetta Rosa Maria Franconero (born December 12, 1937), known professionally as Connie Francis, is an American pop singer, actress, and top-charting female vocalist of the late 1950s and early 1960s. She is estimated to have sold more than 100 million records worldwide.
In 1960, Francis was recognized as the most successful female artist in Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, Italy, and Australia, and in every other country where records were purchased. She was the first woman in history to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, just one of her other 53 career hits.
Mary Wells first began singing to distract herself from the pain of chronic hunger as well as partial blindness and deafness from childhood meningitis.
She began her career as a teenager, first in her church and then in nightclubs. She had early success and signed a record label - specifically, Motown Records - when she was only 17 in 1960.
Over the course of the decade, she was a driving force of the genre and earned the nickname “the Queen of Motown.” She is most widely known for 1964’s “My Guy,” but had a number of other hits throughout the decade, including “One Who Really Loves You” and “You Beat Me to the Punch,” which was nominated for a Grammy. “My Guy” was so popular that it replaced Louis Armstrong at no. 1 on the charts and led Wells to a collaboration with Marvin Gaye. The song has been inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
Karen Carpenter was a member of the folk-pop group The Carpenters, which gained widespread popularity during the late part of the decade. The group consisted of Karen and her brother Richard.
Though she considered herself a drummer, Carpenter soon became the lead singer. Her sweet vocals were responsible for helping their music become more popular. The Carpenters were pioneers of the folk-pop genre and helped propel it to the international stage.
This compilation features both sides of her 1966 debut single 'Looking for Love' and 'I'll Be Yours'.
"Looking for Love" is a song released under Karen Carpenter's name. It is regarded as the first release by what was to become the Carpenters. The music was written by Karen's brother, Richard Carpenter. It was recorded in 1966 and released on record label Magic Lamp, a small label with a limited budget. Even though Richard Carpenter does participate on the recording, it is printed "Karen Carpenter" on the recording contract and record label.
The record has now become a collectors' item and is worth between $2,000 to $2,500 as only 500 copies of the 45 rpm single were pressed. The single did not chart commercially, and no music video was shot for the song (because promotional music videos were in their infancy at the time). This process led Magic Lamp to defunct, but the song, along with its B-side "I'll Be Yours", were later included on the 1991 4-CD box set From the Top. According to the liner notes for the album From the Top, the master tapes for this recording and its flip side were lost in a fire at Joe Osborn's house in 1974. All CD reissues have been made from a 45rpm copy owned by Richard Carpenter.
Their music dominated the Top 100 charts starting in the late 60s and throughout the 70s, landing them solidly on the list of the best-selling artists of all time. She was also wildly talented as a live performer and recording artist, known for needing only one take per song.
Tragically, she passed away in 1983 from complications of anorexia.
Joni Mitchell is considered one of the pioneers of mid-20th-century folk music. Her poetic lyrics, sweet voice, and acoustic guitar accompaniment are instantly recognizable, even many decades after she got her start. Her career started out in the mid-60s by busking on the street and performing in nightclubs, but it wasn’t until she started writing her own songs in the late 60s that she signed on to a record label.
Now, Mitchell is considered to be one of the definitive voices not just of a musical genre but of an entire era. Her airy vocals and eloquent lyrics are known far and wide in their own right, but also for their influence on the development of modern folk music.
She placed 9th on Rolling Stone Magazine’s list of Top 100 Greatest Songwriters. Her most famous tracks include “Big Yellow Taxi,” “Woodstock,” and “Both Sides Now,” with the last being covered countless times by other artists.
Patsy Cline. Like many other famous singers of the 60s, Patsy Cline started singing in a church choir. But it was a unique childhood experience that she claimed gave her her stunning singing voice. When she was 13, Cline came down with rheumatic fever, which spread to her throat, causing a severe infection. Throughout her life, she claimed that the experience altered her voice dramatically to give it the range and style that she became known for.
Although the earliest part of her career began all the way back in 1948, it didn’t hit its peak until 1957 with her release of “Walkin’ After Midnight.” She gained even more popularity throughout the early 60s, during which time she released several number-one hits, including “She’s Got You” and “I Fall to Pieces.”
Cline’s sweet voice shaped the country music scene of the 60s and would continue to influence its development throughout the decade and beyond. Her most enduring hit was 1961’s “Crazy,” which has been called a country standard. Tragically, Cline died in an airplane crash in 1963 at the age of 30.
Joan Baez wasn’t just instrumental (pun intended) in the 60s music scene for her own musical talent, but she was also responsible for helping Bob Dylan get his start. Some people also give Baez credit for kicking off the New York folk revival. She is widely known for her songs “Diamonds and Rust” and “We Shall Overcome.”
During the mid-60s, Baez was a pioneer of the style of folk music that consisted of an acoustic guitar and anti-establishment poetry. Although she composed her own songs, she preferred to cover other artists, including the then-unknown singer Bob Dylan. Baez herself was already a wildly popular musician, having achieved instant success with her first album, released in 1960.
She continued to be outspoken on topics of human rights, pacifism, and others throughout her career; she was extremely active in the civil rights movement and protests against the Vietnam War. She also performed fourteen songs at Woodstock while pregnant with her son Gabriel.
Cass Elliot, often called Mama Cass, was a pioneer of the 60s not just for her stunning solo and group vocals but also for her representation of plus-sized female beauty. She dropped out of high school to pursue a musical career in New York City. There, she became influential on the burgeoning folk music scene as part of the group The Mamas & The Papas. Their first hit “California Dreamin’” was released in 1965.
Voices in the media relentlessly drew attention to her weight, which Elliot had tried in vain to lose. She ignored them and focused on her music while creating her own unique fashion style. She was an excellent live performer, disarming audiences with her rich vocals and electric stage presence both alone and in an ensemble.
The Mamas & The Papas broke up in the late 60s, and Elliot released her first solo album, Dream a Little Dream of Me, in 1968. Tragically, she died of a heart attack in 1974 at the age of 32.
Nancy Sinatra is the elder daughter of Frank Sinatra, one of the greatest jazz singers of the 20th century. But she was also an iconic singer in her own right, having earned a music degree at the University of California at Los Angeles.
Throughout the 60s, she was a music and fashion icon, exemplifying the progressive fashion of heavy eye makeup, high boots, and mini-dresses. Her music consistently topped the charts throughout the decade, with tracks such as “Some Velvet Morning,” “Somethin’ Stupid,” “Summer Wine,” and “Sugar Town.”
Her most enduring hit was “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’,” which was released in December 1965 and nominated for three Grammys.
Lesley Gore was discovered when she was only 16 years old, but her age and inexperience didn’t stop her from becoming an instant success. Her first single, released while she was still in high school, was 1963’s “It’s My Party.” It skyrocketed to No.1 on the charts and was certified as a gold record.
Throughout the decade, Gore continued to release music, striking a fascinating image to contrast with societal expectations. Though she looked traditional and innocent, much of her music expressed deep emotions, including frustration with society and mistreatment from male partners. She is widely remembered for her 1963 and 1964 hits “Judy’s Turn to Cry” and “You Don’t Own Me.”
Though she continued to have a successful career throughout much of her life, her most renowned songs were released before her 18th birthday. Gore’s feminist attitude as evidenced in her lyrics has been described as a trailblazer for other female singers who rose to fame throughout the 60s, 70s, and 80s.
Peggy March isn’t widely known to history, yet her music shaped the music scene of the 60s. Her most significant accomplishment was her first single “I Will Follow Him,” which she released in 1963 at the age of only 14. It immediately became a top-selling hit, earning March a record as the youngest female musician to have a No.1 hit. The record has still not been broken to this day.
She was also the first white female singer to have a best-selling R&B single. She released several more Top 30 hits throughout the 60s, both before she graduated high school in 1966. Through the subsequent decades, her career shifted to Europe, and she continued to sing in the United Kingdom and Germany.
Tammi Terrell (born Thomasina Winifred Montgomery; April 29, 1945 - March 16, 1970) was an American singer-songwriter, widely known as a star singer for Motown Records during the 1960s, notably for a series of duets with singer Marvin Gaye.
Terrell's career began as a teenager, first recording for Scepter/Wand Records, before spending nearly nine months as a member of James Brown's Revue, recording for Brown's Try Me label. After a period attending college, Terrell recorded briefly for Checker Records, before signing with Motown in 1965. With Gaye, Terrell scored seven Top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, including "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", which was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999, "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing" and "You're All I Need to Get By". Terrell's career was interrupted when she collapsed into Gaye's arms as the two performed at a concert at Hampden-Sydney College on October 14, 1967, with Terrell later being diagnosed with a brain tumor. She had eight unsuccessful surgeries before dying of the illness on March 16, 1970, at the age of 24.
