I Am Woman
~ Recording by Helen Reddy
Annotation
This version of Helen Reddy’s iconic hit single and feminist anthem was recorded at Sun West Studio on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles. It is the most famous version of the song, with some of the best session musicians of the day assembled. The recording builds nicely with the addition of a brass backing from the second chorus and strong back-up vocals.
