I like some of the lesser-knowns.

I like Sister Rosetta Tharpe (rocking an SG before the SG was cool).

I have a soft spot in my heart for Joanna Connor:

And, since I post this video from time to time, I think this is as good a time as any to highlight Juliette. She's got great phrasing and feel.

Still, it gives me an excuse to post a few of my own faves ...

The premise was our favorite female guitar slingers. If I expand that a bit, one can't forget Susan Tedeschi. One half of the Tedeschi Trucks band. And we all know who Derrick Trucks is.
