Nancy Wilson, the guitarist and singer who helped power Heart to international success, turns 72 on March 16.
Just two years later, Heart delivered another defining moment with the song "Barracuda," which became one of the band’s signature hits and a staple of classic rock radio.
Heart continued to dominate through the late ’70s and into the ’80s, eventually scoring their first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with the song "These Dreams" in 1986—featuring Nancy Wilson on lead vocals.
Wilson’s influence as a guitarist has also earned major recognition. In 2016, Gibson ranked her among the greatest female guitarists of all time.
Even after more than 50 years in music, Wilson remains active as a performer, songwriter and mentor to younger artists.
"When The Beatles showed up, it was like, 'Must have guitar,'" she told Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan.
And today, fans are celebrating the legendary guitarist who helped shape the sound of classic rock.
