I'm making a chart for the top 50 best female albums. I've found 40 so far that make the list (PJ Harvey barely makes it on; Joni doesn't), but I need another ten. Any suggestions?

Nicole Atkins - Neptune City
Garbage - Garbage

I know those two might not be in many people's top 50, but they'd probably be in mine.

I saw someone posted Blondie, so... I don't know if we're going for solo artists or bands with female singers, but some others to consider might be:

No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom (maybe even Gwen's solo debut?)
Christina Aguilera - self-titled and Back to Basics
Rilo Kiley - More Adventurous is the only one I have, but I've heard Takeoffs and Landings and The Execution of All Things are really good, too.
