Fanny: The Right to Rock

Hart, Bobbi Jo, director

Medium:

Movie

Commentary

The first all-female rock band to be signed to a major record label was groundbreaking in a number of other ways too. This documentary restores the forgotten history of Fanny, and begs the question as to why they are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Notes

Fanny’s music straight up rocks no matter how you cut it. Charity Ball and Fanny Hill are the best of the original four albums, but Fanny and Mother’s Pride are also very good. First Time in a Long Time is a rich and enjoyable box set. Fanny Walked the Earth (2018) is all new material with many special guest stars.
