One of the first female singer-songwriters of the rock era, Jackie DeShannon <\/strong>is honored to serve as guest DJ for Sirius XM <\/strong>in celebration of Women’s History Month. <\/strong>DeShannon some of her favorite and most brilliant women of song, both household names and females who historically had careers that didn’t always resemble their more famous male counterparts, but whose importance to rock was indisputable.<\/p>\n

The American female artist program features songs from The Ronettes<\/strong> (“Be My Baby”) whose sunshine pop placed nine times on Billboard’<\/em>s Hot 100 and who became the only female group to tour with The Beatles. Also included is the “Queen of Soul” Aretha Franklin<\/strong> (“Respect”), Skeeter Davis<\/strong> (“The End of the World”), a cross-over country\/pop singer, Barbara Lewis <\/strong>(“Baby I’m Yours”), an influential icon in R&B history, and Carla Thomas<\/strong>,(Gee Whiz) known as the Queen of Memphis.<\/p>\n

DeShannon also chose songs from the “Queen of New Orleans,” Irma Thomas <\/strong>(“After The Rain”) and The Honeys <\/strong>(“He’s A Doll), a group that Brian Wilson considered the equivalent of a female Beach Boys. The American salute is rounded off by the iconic Etta James <\/strong>(“At Last”) and the legendary Supremes <\/strong> (“Stop In the Name of Love”).<\/p>\n

The British vocalists who helped shape rock ‘n’ roll history encompass three of the most successful women internationally: Dusty Springfield <\/strong>(“Son of a Preacher Man”), Petula Clark(“Downtown”) <\/strong>and Olivia Newton-John <\/strong>(“Hopelessly Devoted to You”). DeShannon also honors Shirley Bassey <\/strong>(“Goldfinger”), Cilla Black <\/strong>(“You’re My World”), Helen Shapiro <\/strong>(“Walking Back to Happiness”), and Sandie Shaw <\/strong>(“Always Something There to Remind Me”), Marianne Faithful <\/strong>(“As Tears Go By”), Jackie Trent <\/strong>(“Where Are You Now?”), Samantha Jones <\/strong>(“No Regrets”) and Mary Hopkin <\/strong>(“Those Were the Days”), are also featured in the broadcast.<\/p>\n

The radio sessions not only include songs by these female rockers but also brief histories created and spoken by DeShannon. She chose her female artists wisely, taking those well-known as well as incorporating others not as familiar. As an inspiring artist of the era – and beyond – DeShannon was the perfect choice to host. She toured with The Beatles on their first US visit, is an inductee of The Songwriter’s Hall of Fame, an inductee at the Library of Congress for “What the World Needs Now Is Love” and a Grammy recipient for “Bette Davis Eyes”). Additionally, Jackie serves as a correspondent on Sirius XM, bringing Beatle news on the weekends to “Breakfast With the Beatles.” She is also the composer, along with her brother Randy Myers and Jimmy Holiday, of one of the most beloved anthems to hail from the 1960s, “Put A Little Love in Your Heart.”<\/p>\n

Jackie DeShannon is excited to share this broadcast which can be heard on the Sirius XM GOLDEN CHANNEL 73 <\/strong>and on the Sirius XM App.<\/p>\n
