I'll go out on a limb and say I'm probably who never heard of this rockin band, even in passing. Their links go to Streisand, Rundgren, Joe Cocker and many others. Really incredible, and they rock. Got a Hammond in there, that's always floats my boat. It's my inner Jon Lord, I can't help it.
[QUOTE]Fanny was an American rock band, active in the early to mid 1970s. They were one of the first all-female rock groups to achieve critical and commercial success, including two Billboard Hot 100 Top 40 singles.
The group was founded by guitarist June Millington and her sister, bassist Jean, who had been playing music together since they moved from the Philippines to California in the early 1960s. After playing through several variations of the band, they attracted the interest of producer Richard Perry who signed them to Reprise Records in 1969 as Fanny. The band recorded four albums together before June Millington quit the group, leading to the original line-up splitting. Following a final album, Fanny disbanded in 1975. [QUOTE]
Here's them covering Hey Bulldog. It got me going a bit.
So, am I the only one who didn't know about this band until today?
