It’s Been a Long Cold Lonely Winter

Last year in February I featured Black History month. I noted at the time how ironic it is that Black History gets the shortest month of the year.

The Basement Beehive Girl Group Underground gave me a great idea.

This year's shortest gets my own heavy dose of irony. Another group of second class citizens in a white male dominated world, womyn, get this month all to themselves. Trying to not cover the near universally known...Billie Holiday, Janis Joplin, Bjork, etc. but give some time & space to lesser known but no less talented womyn. 

The Fems of Feb. 

 



As always I have to start off each adventure down JA way. I’ve featured this fine lady before in a compilation of No,No,No...the incomparable Dawn Penn, Come(ing) Again.
