What are your 5 best albums by women? There's a list of the best 150 here, but it's asking a bit much of TAS members to list that many. Here are their top 10: Joni Mitchell, Blue (Reprise, 1971) Lauryn Hill, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (Ruffhouse/Columbia, 1998) Nina Simone, I Put a Spell on You (Philips, 1956) Aretha Franklin, I Never Loved a Man the Way I Loved You (Atlantic, 1967) Missy Eliot, Supa Dupa Fly (The Goldmine/Elekra, 1997) Beyoncé, Lemonade (Parkwood/Columbia 2016) Patti Smith, Horses (Arista, 1975) Janis Joplin, Pearl (Columbia, 1971) Amy Winehouse, Back to Black (Island, 2006) Carole King, Tapestry (Ode, 1971)

Michelle Shocked - 'Short Sharp Shocked' is a great cd I got turned on to her back in the 80's when you done a tape called Texas Campfire Tapes but it was only recorded on a Walkman if I remember right and as expected the quality was not great.

Short Sharp Shocked is one of my favourite hifi demo records - it has a bit of everything on it.

Wrecking Ball #46. The Carpenters and Fleetwood Mac (amongst others) are apparently 'women." Nah! No Elite Hotel no top 100.
