My vote would be with The Supremes. They broke not only gender barriers, but race barriers. They were talented entertainers who put out many classic pop songs.

Fanny - they were ace musicians & songwriters, could take a pop tune like "Ain't That Peculiar" and do a wonderful version of it & yet jam with the best of them (this was the early 70's). Fanny's problem was that they came along too early when the average rock fan just couldn't handle women actually playing their own instruments!

Not personal opinion but reckon it has to be the Spice Girls!
Reason - the did have pretty much world domination - and they are an English group! ( Easy to be big from USA if have the backing and wads of money invested in the band.)

Dixie Cups, The Supremes were both leaders for girl bands.

The Shrillelles. They launched the career of Carole King and mad a fortune for the record companies. They are still together and they are still singing and I take my hat off to them
The Supremes. They were electric

I'd have to go with Diana Ross and the Supremes, legends of Motown.

The Go Go Girls. All were teens and sounded good. That was in the 80's.
