Default Re: Best Female Songrwiter (of all time)?

I'm not much of a Joni Mitchell fan.

I thought Fiona's first album, Tidal, was really amazing.

Always been a fan of Carole King and that's who I initially thought of when I saw the thread.

Agree that Liz Phair's Exile in Guyville is good but this one's probably not all the way up there with the greats.

One mostly unknown one that I like better than Exile in Guyville:
Was really impressed with the mid or late 90's Patti Rothberg album 'Between the 1 and the 9'. Great flow to the album and great songs throughout.

Some of the good ones are the ones where you just KNOW they were going through some lousy heartache at the time they wrote it.
