Fanny-Awesome Rockers, All Female Band From The 1970's

I'm reading the October 2017 50th Anniversary issue of "Guitar Player" and in their feature story picking 50 noteworthy Guitar Albums of the last 60 years, for the 1970's, directly next to "The Allman Brothers Band -At Fillmore East" is a band I have never heard of until now that slipped past my radar, an all female rock group called Fanny (no stupid jokes please from the peanut gallery though I'm sure the name was intentional, LOL). Boy can these ladies rock! If they had not been listed next to the ABB I might have not noticed them. Nice to discover some awesome badass rocker Ladies Of Rock.
Here's a bio about them.
The first ever collection of every music video ever made by Fanny. They were one of the first notable rock groups to be made up entirely of women, the third to sign with a major label (after Goldie & the Gingerbreads and the Pleasure Seekers), and the first to release an album on a major label (in 1970). They achieved two top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and released five albums. They toured with the likes of David Bowie who considered them top flight musicians.
The band featured June Millington on lead guitar and vocals, sister Jean Millington bass guitar and vocals, Nickey Barclay keyboards and vocals and Alice de Buhr on drums. All contributed to the songwriting, though the band did a handful of covers on their albums as well.
Also on Wikipedia.
