LRC is not the place to come for music knowledge. LRC is not necessarily the best place to come for running knowledge, though it does have Jamin and assorted trolls that bring out the best in humanity.

Female band has to be Heart. Janis and Patty S were more solo singers backed by a band.
For band with a lead female singer - Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks.
What about Motown artists, like Diana Ross and the Supremes? What is the difference between a band and a group?

The Kinks.
Here's a kick-butt live show from- get this - 1965! The Beatles, The Who, The Stones, and others just were not doing stuff this loose and raucous until a couple of years later. Link:

In particular, a couple of songs like All Day and All of the Night' and 'I really Got You' lay the groundwork for some much heavier rock and metal to come. Noteworthy, is that this stuff pre-dated The Who's "I Can See for Miles", which was credited by the Beatles as the catalyst for their "Helter Skelter", and which are both sited as influencing heavy metal to come.
I quote from Wikipedia: "Artists influenced by The Kinks include punk rock groups such as the Ramones,[183] The Clash,[184] and The Jam,[185] heavy metal acts including Van Halen and Britpop groups such as Oasis, Blur and Pulp.[1] Craig Nicholls, singer and guitarist of The Vines, described the Kinks as "great songwriters, so underrated".[186] Pete Townshend, guitarist with the Kinks' contemporaries the Who, credited Ray Davies with inventing "a new kind of poetry and a new kind of language for pop writing that influenced me from the very, very, very beginning."[187] Jon Savage wrote that The Kinks were an influence on late 1960s American psychedelic rock groups "like The Doors, Love and Jefferson Airplane".[63] Music writers and other musicians have acknowledged the influence of the Kinks on the development of hard rock and heavy metal. Musicologist Joe Harrington stated: "'You Really Got Me', 'All Day and All of the Night' and 'I Need You' were predecessors of the whole three-chord genre... [T]he Kinks did a lot to help turn rock 'n' roll (Jerry Lee Lewis) into rock."[183] Queen guitarist Brian May credited the band with planting "the seed which grew into riff-based music."[188]"
why has it taken so long...

Ha. Thanks for that. It is like the Player's Tribune for music.
You can tell each tribute was written by a person who loved that person's music for sure. Great pairings.
I wish they were five times as long. Or fifty times as long.
