We Look Back At Ann Wilson’s Greatest Performances

Heart’s Ann Wilson is well-known in the music industry. She has established herself as one of the best hard-rock vocalists of all time because of her extraordinary vocal ability as well as her captivating stage presence.

She enjoyed notable success throughout her career, which began in the 1970s and continued into the early 2000s, with 29 singles appearing on the Billboard Hot 100 list and more than 35 million albums sold globally. Along with her band Heart, she received recognition in 2013 when they were both inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Wilson’s talent and influence in the rock genre have not only earned her the title of a rock goddess legend but have also cemented her as one of the most revered and respected vocalists in the history of rock music.

Here are two standout performances by Wilson and Heart from the 1970s:

1. “Crazy On You”
This hit song, co-written by Ann and her sister Nancy, featured a blend of electric and acoustic guitars and made its debut on national television in 1977. The fast-paced rock sound and memorable performance quickly propelled Heart to fame during the late ’70s and early ’80s.

2. “Barracuda”
Released in 1977, “Barracuda” is a powerful revenge song that might have been a response to criticism received about Ann and Nancy’s music. Ann’s emotional and compelling performance, accompanied by her rock and roll bandmates, showcased her exceptional musical talent.
