Top 15 youTube Rockin' Gals
There seem to be more female performers on the rockin' scene now than ever before and to
quote one of the greatest, Barbara Pittman, they're getting better all the time.
Here's 15 hot performances with apologies to any I've missed out.
Marti Brom - Black Cadillac
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seQ2DoWFAgM
To me, still the cream of the crop, Marti Brom gives a scorching version from the 10th
Rockabilly Rave in March 2005.
Vicky Tafoya - Why Do Fools Fall In Love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlmb3eaZXvw
With her backing band, the Big Beat, live at The Rhythm Riot 2004. With a voice to match
her look, she's the Marie Adams of the new Millennium.
Cari Lee & The Saddle-Ites - Eenie Meenie Miney Mo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4y25dYGhKQ
Hot version with great sound. I love these country-girl outfits.
Catslappin' Crissy - Rock My Baby

New one on me but goes like the clappers.
Miss Mary Ann & the Ragtime Wranglers - Watchdog

Miss Mary Ann shows off her great vocals at the Hi-Rockabilly Festival in Calafell, Spain
in September 2004.
Imelda May - Johnny's Got A Boom Boom
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ8pKX_WsPQ
From the Old Joint Stock Theatre in Birmingham, April 2008, Imelda hypnotises with her
band that includes hubby Darrel Higham and the great Al Gare on bass.
Josie Kreuzer - Good Time Girl
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCoE-M056l4
Always enjoyable, but where is Josie Kreuzer these days?
Kim Lenz - The Swing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JyjKZ5snrE
Great cover of my favourite Johnny Carroll song from the Hollywood Showdown 8.
Lil Esther and her Tinstars - Rock Boppin Baby
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tceNfL9R_xQ
The Edwin Bruce bopper get's a fitting tribute from the wonderful Lil Esther at the
Rockers Club Festival 2008.

The Japanese rockaphillies cover the old Housemartins song.

Sue Moreno - Believe What You Say
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpuI0nS0BNo
More than just a pretty face, Sue Moreno gives a hot performance of the Ricky Nelson
number at the 2007 Rockabilly Rave. Did I mention hot?
Ruby Ann & Eddie Clendening - Hoy Hoy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzm-5UH4nok
Duet from the New Years Party 2008 at the Amsterdam Cruise Inn. They burn up the Collins
Kid classic with two dymanic guitar solos from Eddie Clendening.
The Southerners

Hot and sweaty might in an Anaheim juke joint in 2007.
