weslgarlic Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Many solo artist have worked with female singers, many mixed groups have female vocalists Robert Plant – Alison Krauss & Patty Mark Knophfler – Emmylou Harris Fleetwood Mac – Stevie Nicks Big Brother – Janis Joplin Jefferson Airplane – Grace Slick Heart – Ann Wilson et al What about Jimmy Page working with a female vocalist , I’d go for Bettye Lavette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudslider Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 as long as it's not leona lewis or whatever her name is. I certanly wouldn't mind anything "new" at this point, including even an acoustical LP featuring Leona Lewis on vocals. Personally, I like Sharon Little. Saw her in Seattle as an opening act for Plant / Krauss. She was so well received and had such a beautiful voice, receiving a loud standing ovation, though she was so admittently nervous.

aen27 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 There is Stevie Nicks, Joan Jett, Marianne Faithfull and even Jackie DeShannon. I could see him working with all 4 of them. He has already with the last two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP78 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Ann Wilson would be my top choice . but this is a case of whether Jimmy himself is up for it. i can't any of the women mentioned not wanting to work with him. in fact i think he could easily get almost anyone (male or female) to work with him if he wanted to.

the chase Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Of course It could work.. Jimmy Page could work with 100 kazoo players and it would be great. Whether or not the public would embrace it is another thing.. For Female singers I'd pick.. Tori Amos / Kate Bush - brilliant and eccentric. Leann Rimes - amazing beautiful voice. Ann Wilson - of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Dee Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Jimmy Page seemed to enjoy Bonnie Raitt's performance on The Kennedy Center Honors. I don't see why they couldn't collaborate on a project together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth and beauty Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Absolutely fascinating question. Could he ? We can all list women, and men, he's worked with in the past. We can all draw up a future wish list with either men or women. I think that, apart from his very early days, his world of music has been with men. And his world of work has been with men. Few of us build our own workplaces and people them just as we choose. Jimmy's in a different place, and in terms of musical collaborators, plus other support staff, guitar techs & the like, it's a male domain. We all know he needs to find a key musical collaborator, who can hold their own, and yet tune in . Perhaps he will find the man who fits that bill. I do think it would represent a whole new area of challenge and musical excitement if he could have that kind of working relationship with a woman. But I just don't think the precedents are there.

reswati Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Anne Wilson Ann would be a good one, she got the balls, or else Lynne Jackaman, the lady who fronts Saint Jude (And Jimmy digs that band) another interesting singer to work with him would be Loreena MacKennitt.

ledded1 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I guess it depends on what tunes he has and whether he was thinking of a female singer for any of them. Some light and shade could open that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grecko1 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I think Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Jason Bonham and Deborah Bonham could make for a very interesting recording. She sings very soulfully and also has a very powerful voice. Plus, Jason could do backing vocals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
