What do you think of the Female Artist of the Day [64]?

Where've I been?! My computer is a little broken and I have a handful of questions all ready to go on there and was just too lazy to start from scratch again. Then I realized it's been a month since my last one, whoops. :p

ARTIST: Katey Sagal

- 1 album with The Group With No Name

- 2 solo albums

GENRE: Folk, Pop

FACTOIDS:

- Well who doesn't know Katey Sagal? Peggy Bundy in Married...with Children, Leela on Futurama, Gemma on Sons of Anarchy, a ton of other roles.

- She did background vocals on a Gene Simmons album and sung backup for Bette Midler in the 70s. She also did some background vocals on an Olivia Newton-John song in the 80s.

- I don't know how many people will remember this, but my parents used to watch the show so I didn't realize the pregnancy on MWC that turned out to be a dream was actually real. She ended up having a stillbirth in her 7th month.

HOW I FOUND HER: I was looking through (snooping) a friend's parent's music collection and found all three albums. It's not my type of music, but I liked her voice.

ALBUM I RECOMMEND FIRST: I think I liked 'Well...' the best. Keep in mind, the first album was released in 1976, the second in 1994, and the third in 2004 so they're all pretty different from each other. The first song is from the Sons of Anarchy soundtrack. Unfortunately I could barely find any recordings though.

Feel free to listen to all three, or pick the one that looks best! Whatcha think?

"Bird on a Wire" from SoA (2010)

    I think she should stick to Sons of Anarchy as she's more convincing imo.

    lets see are you sure we are on 64? see I thought it was 56, or no wait 54, no 68... you see where I am going with this? your lack of consistency has been most taxing to this section and I am not buying this computer problem bullsh^t... I think you have just been ignoring us! Just Kidding welcome back.

    I didn't know Sagal had a career in music I mean of course I knew she was an actress but I had no idea about this sh*t Vicky, geez the things I learn from you, you should come around more often. my opinion is it sounds pretty good but not really my taste. it's like emotional biker country or something I can't really put it into words. but I will say she has a good voice.

    I was wondering what happened to you and your female artist of the day questions, Glad your back!

    I think she has a great voice. However not a fan of the music itself......out of three you posted I like "wish I was a kid" the best.

    I'm pretty versatile in music and I have to say I listened to all 3 all the way through. I'm really impressed. Thank you so much for posting these. I can't pick a "best"~~I loved them all. Her voice is just captivating. I wish I had those 3 albums.
