Bessie Lee Mauldin!?!?
Steve, you've GOT to be kidding, right?!?! I don't see any smiley faces. If you're talking that era, I'd take Donna Stoneman over Bessie Lee anyday, except in a fistfight. That one, Bessie would win hands down.
For the forum: Mauldin was Bill Monroe's girlfriend throughout the 50's and 60's. They might have been married. She was a big ol' gal with peroxide hair to match, and a hell of a bass player. But her "babe status" is up for debate.
Used to see her a lot when Monroe came through LA in the early-mid 60's. There was a lot of her to see, also.
My criteria for "sexy" is a woman that gives off the vibes that she's enthusiastic about doing the Wild Thing. So my current faves are Shania, Faith, Chely, and that current hottie that sings "Redneck Woman," whose name escapes me at the moment. But of course, that's what their videos are intended to portray, which is part of what destroyed country music as we used to know it. So the sexy sword has two edges to it.

Bob! I can't believe you let that out. I was wondering where his Adam's apple was.

What about pre-country music? This photo of Nancy Hamilton from the Library of Congress has always haunted me. There's a come hither something or other in her eyes that looks right through you.

Dang Joe, Princess Ramona? That's a blast from the past. I've actually played a couple of gigs with her in my old SoCal days. Back to the sexiest women thing, I'd go for these:
Linda Ronstadt in her prime (before the fat and dumb polital statements.
EmmyLou back then and even today she's hot.
Geraldine? of the gospel group Wendy Bagwell and the Starlighters
Donna Stoneman, dancing around playing that mandolin.
Allison Krause, she should be moved way up on that list.
Chris Connell of Asleep at the Wheel, she was/is so cool and sexy.
Lorrie Morgan, "Great Hooters" and a voice to boot.
Nancy Griffin, that girl puts me in a "Texas State of Mind"...
Last but not least, in a senior moment I can't think of her name, but she wins the Bluegrass female vocalist of the year on a regular basis. Dark hair and plays the mandolin and sings her butt off...
Have a good 'un...JH

I can't belive no one has mentioned Wanda Jackson! Her sexy growl on those late 50's records makes me feel all tingly and funny like inside.

Wanda Jackson was always at the top of my list!
To the best of my knowledge, Bill Monroe was never married.

Bessie Lee, wasn't she also the catcher?
Bill M. often fielded most of a baseball team on the road.
She was all woman, and could run down a bunt too.
Stephen, you hit the nail about Emmylou.
The complete package, she never let her beauty get in her way.
She clearly heard her own music in her head, went for it,
and pulled it off.
She also has that indefinable 'Cute".
Cute can last forever, great grannies can be cute.
But beautiful outside fades eventually,
but beautiful inside and CUTE. lasts forever.
You can see her most anywhere and totally at home, and most everybody likes her. |

Thanks Craig, that would be Rhonda Vincent. What a honey! Also how 'bout Claire Lynch or Gillian Welch. Gillian's kind of a plain jane but something about her intrigues me a lot. JH

Hey, Gang!
My pick for one of the sexiest female country stars would have to be Julie Roberts but I also like Faith, Shania, LeeAnn Womack, and some of the newere female country stars as well.

I hate to admit this ( just kidding) but I have the agree with Herb on this and applaud him for his honest remarks. SHANIA Twain is the hottest looking female with talant I can think of. She is hotter than a rear ended pinto. [This message was edited by W Franco on 02 December 2004 at 12:18 PM.] |
