Long Playing Women

Which women have released the best albums? From Joni's Blue to Amy's Back to Black. Was it Whitney's debut or maybe Tapestry from Carole King.

Joni Mitchell's 4th album Blue is held up as being one of the greatest albums ever made by a woman. You may well agree, but surely over the past 50 years there have been equally impressive long playing albums released by female artists. Is it Amy's Back to Black, Tapestry from Carole King, Whitney's debut or maybe I Put a Spell on You from Nina Simone. Who would appear in your top 10?
