My two choices are Chrisie Hynde and Patti Smith.
They both have the look and the style.
Any others?

You are right Rockman Anita was the original Keith.

Joan Jett

Boy George.

Good one Rockman. And Patti Smith.

It's gotta be Marianne Faithfull.

My first choice was Courtney Love... kinda fits lifestyle-wise, not necessarily musically.

2nd choice was Janis Joplin... prolly a little closer fit.

Joan Jett kinda fits with the guitar, Grace Slick with the lifestyle.

Somehow I come back to Courtney Love, not a perfect fit, but prolly the best all-round: lifestyle, guitar, attitude.

me 2 on love & joplin ,joplin had that cool dress code like keef thou , 2 bad janis didn't live long enough 2 prove her point more ,how's this 4 a match

Keith and Janis were both huge talents... Courtney not so much though that might be self-induced.

Janis might be a bit closer, come to think of it... the blues, the booze, 'cept she wasn't a guitarist like Courtney.

There's not a one perfect match really.

"It's just that demon life has got me in it's sway..."

How can Janis be it? She died. Part of being the female Keith would be, of course, to have survived the ride. Talent aside, you have to be able to party like nobody's business. A female Richards? I don't know of one yet. Anita Odey is the closest musician I can think of. A hardcore junkie and crazy drug addict for years but still playing at 80-years-old. I think even Keith might agree with that one. We all know how he feels about Kurt and Courtney. Neither one of those clowns could hold Keith's dirty spoon. How many rehab's has Courtney been in? How many has Keith? Answer that and you'll cross her off the list right-a-way.

if being a junkie is the only qualification, then there's lots of those... gotta be a pretty great musician too... Keith's gonna die one day so "living", not sure how important that is.

"It's just that demon life has got me in it's sway..."

It be good to make it past 30 though, don't you think?

Lucinda Williams all the way!

Patty LaBelle?

PJ Harvey

Billie Holiday

Joan Jett

Lucinda Williams
Bonnie Rait

Lucinda Williams or Patti Smith

Gotta agree with Bayou. Courtney kinda does seem like the most logical choice as far as lifestyle, attitude, etc.

Jennifer Herremma of RTX/royal trux. the most wasted woman in rock. most underated female songwriter i know of.

I'm free to do what I want any old time...
I'm free to sing my song knowing it's out of trend

Nana Mouskouri

There isn't one.

if anyone - Lucinda

Courtney would like to be, but doesnt have the talent or charm.

Is Texacala Jones still around ?

Judy Garland

Mick Jagger
