If we could turn back time, who would you have liked to have taken out for a..um.. er..coffee?
I made this poll for everyone!
 It is pretty difficult, a lot of those women were really something in their day!

Ann Wilson of the ones listed. Also, Carly Simon or Linda Ronstadt.

I chose Ann´s sister, Nancy. Second would be Pat Benatar!
I completely forgot about Linda Ronstadt and Carly Simon.

Well..I grew up in the 70's(ages 4-14)and had a huge crush on Nancy Wilson. -------------  |

Actually she still looks good, she´s aged very well. I think Ann had a bit of a weight problem later on, but they were both stunning in the 70´s.

Susanna Hoffs, no question. I've had a hopeless crush on her since I first saw her. Sadly (for me, not her), she's married. Suzi Quattro was also pretty hot... |

OK, let me see.... I'd have said Glenn Hughes, if it were not for the fact that in the Seventies he was a hopeless cokehead. Ian Gillan was also pretty hot at the time (and he's aged quite well too...). Coverdale was never at the top of my list, and neither was Plant - though I love both their voices, obviously. Daltrey and Frampton were not my cup of tea... So that leaves us with dashing, dark-haired Steve Harris, whom I dug quite a bit in the early Eighties (and still looks far from displeasing) - not to mention that he's one of my musical heroes and a thoroughly decent chap. Still, you managed to forget two essential pieces of Seventies male eye candy... Blond Eddie Jobson and dark-haired John Wetton. A UK concert would have been for sure a matter for cold showers aplenty...  Ghost Rider strikes back...  |

Kate Bush, or Suzi Quatro... BTW I think that not only the Bangles, but also Kim Wilde was eghties. ------------- Blog this: http://artrock2006.blogspot.com |

Yup. Susanna Hoffs was still attending college in 1980. The first Bangles album was in 1984. Kim Wilde signed her first record deal in 1980 and her first album was released in 1981. 
But that's not as fun as remembering how hot they were....  ------------- "Peace is the only battle worth waging." Albert Camus |

Sonja Kristina was pretty hot. And Renate from Amon Duul II seemed like a looker too, from the few pictures I've actually seen of her. |

I went for Ann's sister Nancy (who has aged better too).
Second would be Kate Bush, but I would be quite weary of how weird she could scream during orgasm!
 Pierced eardrums are just not worth getting laid
 Anyway half these ladies belong to the 80's.
And I prefer the classier Christine McVie to Stevie Nicks
in the 60's Grace Slick was the one and only
Janis Joplin anyone? ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

It's a dirty secret - I blame it on peer pressure! I had a huge collection of chick-band albums in the 80s. I was even the first guy at my college to own a Go-Gos album  .------------- "Peace is the only battle worth waging." Albert Camus |

David Coverdale had a hell of a voice in his time, though as I said before he's not really my type. However, if you refer to his 'hair metal' days, I tend to agree with you. |

I was watching "California Jam" the other day, and on that DVD Glenn Hughes does indeed look like he is on something pretty heavy!
I read a recent interview and he seems to have calmed down a lot. Now he says he just wants to concentrate on making good music and meet a nice Italian woman

He really was at the time... I believe later on he almost died of his addiction, this is why he decided to go into rehab and start a new life. Sadly, though, he's been happily married to a Californian woman called Gabi (who, BTW, is a Sagittarian like me...), so I've got no chance...  |

Deborah Harry. She was hot stuff back then.
I think I may have envisioned having "coffee" with her at the time.

I used to daydream with Stevie Nicks and in 1978 I got a stage pass after a Fleetwood Mac concert and talked with her,I honestly didn't thought she was so tiny, I am 1.80 Mts now but I was around 1.69 then, still was more than a head taller than her.

Of the young ladies in the list, I guess Susannah Hoffs would get my vote (even if she was in college at the time...)
But if I had to choose my favorite lady from the 1970s it would have to be this little hottie:

I'll give you that she looked good in the 70's (especially in the 'Heart Of Glass' video), but I saw her at the Glastonbury Festival on TV a couple of years ago & she looked like nothing more than the usual elderley aunt who has too much to drink at a wedding & tries to dance sexily... -------------
