In 1973 on the west coast, in the city of Seattle Washington, Heart was formed by previous active musicians Roger Fisher and Steve Fossen. Although they are not the faces most fans know and love, the band wouldn’t have been sealed together without them. The famous two women that complete the Heart the world are sisters Nancy and Ann Wilson. Now let us dive deep into the “heart” of this legendary band: Heart.
Heart has survived more than three decades of music and fashion, selling 30 million albums in the process. The band’s hits include “Magic Man,” “Barracuda,” and “These Dreams” which all remain on classic-rock radio, and they are still thriving.
Although women were nearly unheard of in the rock scene in the early 70s, Heart persisted and built a career based on bold, powerful rock music. Although they have what is considered more popular songs, pretty much all of their music is known. Since the start of their career until now, this band has had 20 top-forty singles and seven top-ten albums along with four Grammy nominations.
Here is a list of their most popular songs:
- Barracuda
- Crazy On You
- Magic Man
- Alone
- Dreamboat Annie
Each of these songs are performed lyrically by the Wilson sisters and create a strong platform for the band. These songs are heard in many movies from Guardians of The Galaxy to Daisy Jones and the Six.
Although music has evolved over the past 50 years, nothing beats a classic rock tune, especially by Heart. You can still hear classics like these on local classic rock radio stations in your area or on music apps such as Spotify, Apple Music and Youtube Music.
