+1 on Joan Baez, Buffy Sainte-Marie and Mary Travers. Also totally agree with the inclusion of Sister Rosetta. She could wipe the floor with a LOT of guitar players I know who actually get PAID to play as badly as they do. Lydia Mendoza, anyone? A female corrido/ranchero singer and none-too-shabby guitarist in a very macho (no pun intended) musical and cultural environment of the 20s and on in Mexico.
