Does anybody know (or can anybody guess) what instrument she has played for over 40 years (pic was taken in the 1970s, but she's still going strong). No cheating with Google!
(Hint: it's a fairly unusual musical instrument for a female to play in the broad category of pop/rock/soul/jazz):

Without being sure who it is, a guess is all that can be had. I'd go for drums since the female drummer was and remains a rarity.

Offline Unusual instrument for a woman to play in general (i cant think of anything usual for a woman to play or why it would be) or for anyone to play in a pop/jazz/soul/rock? Im going for the kazzoo which would be an unusual intrument to appear in a band.

Is that Phoebe Snow? I'm not sure what she played...nothing unusual, I'm pretty sure.
For a minute I thought it might be Alice Coltrane but she's dead! Plus I don't think I'd ever seen her dress like that...
Good question! I don't think I wanna guess what she played without being sure who she is.

Offline If it is Phoebe Snow, she was a guitarist, and I don't think female guitarists are that unusual...

Well, I guess enough people have tried, so I can give the answer. No, that's not Phoebe Snow -- it's Cynthia Robinson, trumpet player for the Sly and the Family Stone group.
