Needs more discussion of 60s female rock bands; statement about post-Ebert proliferation misleading; should mention garage rock;

The article, though it provides a brief discussion, says way too little about the female rock bands of the 60s--the all-time heyday for female rock bands (in terms of numbers of groups). It mentions only a few bands. Some of the better known groups, such as The Luv'd Ones, The Liverbirds, The Continental Co-ets,The Shaggs, The Moppets, The Fatimas, The Mod 4, and The She's are not mentioned. I am not advocating that all of the bands on that website be mentioned here (this is a summary--space would not allow), but that there could be more said, about the breadth and scope of the 60s female rock band phenominon. The period warrants far more discussion than is given. Wording such as "proliferation," and/or "phenominon" would be accurate and appropriate descriptions for the female bands of this era (1963-1967). The article makes it look as if there were only a handful of 60s girl bands, when there were never more than at that time.

The article makes it look as if there were more female rock bands in the 70s and 80s, which is not even remotely true. The statement about bands "springing up" after Ebert's remarks is misleading. While a few probably did spring up after that, they were not nearly enough to fill all of the boots (made for walkin') by the 60s girl bands--not even close. Keep in mind that the 60s girl band phenominon had already lost steam after 1967, with the demise of the garage rock phenominon, so any bounce from Ebert's remarks would be a step back up.

By the way, most of these bands were part of the Garage Rock phenominon. But, the article makes no mention of that, when it is essential knowlege. That should be mentioned. Garagepunk66 (talk) 04:40, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2000s and 2010s

Why is there no section for all-female bands from this century? I would think that that would be the most important information this article could offer, but there’s no mention of them at all... VictimOfEntropy (talk) 02:30, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
