FANNY - ROCK AND ROLL SURVIVORS

RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2009

Classic 1974 album by Fanny, the pioneers of female rock, often quoted as the original godmothers of chick rock.

Featuring the original album tracks and original artwork. The CD booklet includes sleeve notes and a full discography.

It can't be underestimated how important the band are in rock music history. Their reputation was as musicians first and women second. Their ability, creativity and the level of success they achieved in this field was unprecedented.

This album was made without two of the original members, June Millington and Alice de Buhr, who'd moved on and they were replaced by Brie Howard and Suzi Quatro's sister Patti.

The band were the first all-female band to release an album on a major label.

One of the band's fans was David Bowie, who during an interview with Billboard in 1999 stated One of the most important female bands in American rock has been buried without a trace. And that is Fanny. They were one of the finest...rock bands of their time, in about 1973. They were extraordinary... they're as important as anybody else who's ever been, ever, it just wasn't their time.
