Improvements

[edit]

The article contains a good deal of info about Heart that can be found on the Heart page and is not specifically about Nancy. Also, more than half of the footnotes in the article are drawn from the same source. 24.29.56.240 (talk) 06:03, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Claim that Heart was the first rock band fronted by women

[edit]

As the band was formed in 1973 there were plenty preceding. Fanny, formed in 1969, Pleasure Seekers, featuring Suzi Quatro in 1964 etc. Although the claim is backed by a Rolling Stone citatio, it's clearly false hyperbole and should be deleted from an encyclopaedic approach.

Actually, the Rolling Stone article does not say so. It says: Heart is the first hard-rock band dominated by women — primarily Ann, with her 23-year-old sister Nancy just a step behind — to enjoy the smashing sort of success that comes from selling 2 1/2 million copies of their debut album [...]. It is true that neither Fanny nor Pleasure Seekers or any other female-fronted band was so successful, so the original claim is quite true, even if it has been taken out of context here. So I am changing the intro to better reflect the reference. Gorpik (talk) 12:16, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
