Great women in world music.?

I wanted to know why my World Party CD had no women on it. And that got me working a children's book about great female musicians (singers, composers, instrumentalists) of the 2oth century (the 1900s). So I want your nominations you think would be worthy to be in such a book. You can nominate anyone from any country; Arabic legends, Eastern European legends, Greek legends, J-pop Legends; Percussionists, guitarists, composers...

Here some of the more famous nominations I have received already.

Billie Holiday
Bessie Smith
Aretha Franklin
Bonnie Raitt
Etta James
Tina Turner
Koko Taylor
