All my life I thought Joan Jett was the best female rocker. Her music inspired me to learn the guitar. But I will have to say that over the years, comparing Pat's song collection to Joan - they might be tied, maybe even Pat takes the top spot.GIJigsawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398778708491795748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465846926358835088.post-74852267541868410912021-02-24T21:53:57.103-05:002021-02-24T21:53:57.103-05:00I love the Monkees.
