Have you voted for your fave albums by female artists?

Which are the most important albums by female artists do you think? Hold that thought and run to the online voting form with your answers.
Around the office the names of Kate Bush, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Sinead O'Connor, PJ Harvey and Yeah Yeah Yeahs were immediately being bandied about - but we're not going to be prescriptive. Just name your five fave albums - and explain your top choice, in up to 50 words (or so).
We'll let you know what the consensus is and print the best submissions in an upcoming issue of Hot Press, so get writing - we'd like your responses to arrive before Friday 2 December.
Oh, and we're interested in hearing from members of both sexes, of course!
