Fanny (1972): 'Wonderful Feeling'

Jean Millington's neat ballad, with Jean on lead vocal (and bass). Love June's super slide guitar solo here! From the Fanny Hill' album, produced by Richard Perry, recorded at Apple Studios, London, UK (third Reprise Records release).

Performed by the first, self-founded, all-girl rock band to be signed to and release an album on a major record label, FANNY.

Before the Runaways, the Bangles, the Go-Gos, etc., there was FANNY.

David Bowie said (Rolling Stone, 29 December 1999):
"One of the most important female bands in American rock has been buried without a trace. And that is Fanny. They were one of the finest... rock bands of their time, in about 1973. They were extraordinary... they're as important as anybody else who's ever been, ever; it just wasn't their time."

Audio from a vinyl LP source. Photos from the booklet in the 2002 CD box set, 'The First Time in a Long Time', which collates the finest first four albums released by Fanny, plus lots of never-before-heard or -released extras.

Fanny were (original lineup, 1969 - 1973):

June Millington - acoustic and slide guitars, vocals
Jean Millington - bass, guitars, vocals
Nickey Barclay - keyboards, guitars, vocals
Alice de Buhr - drums, percussion
