And considering the band started in the 70s, I believe, she's one of the grandmothers of black female rock.

I'm a black woman who writes and sings her own rock music, too. I stopped about a decade ago, after being told that although they loved it, Warner couldn't sign my stuff because "we wouldn't know what section of the store to put your CDs in". I asked the A&R woman what that meant, and she said, "Well, your music appeals to a white male demographic but your face is black." I said, "Stock it in the ROCK section" and didn't add, "you stupid bitch" even though I badly wanted to. After about six labels' worth of this, I stopped making music altogether. Last night I recorded another song after a decade of silence. Today I stumble across this blog entry. Coincidence? I think not! If any of you wants to hear what black female gothic rock sounds like, I exist. Spot on post. I’m a black woman who writes and sings her own rock music, too.
