Lita Ford stands as a monumental figure in the world of rock music, her career spanning several decades and influencing countless artists across genres. She first burst onto the scene in the late 1970s as the lead guitarist for The Runaways, an all-female rock band that broke new ground and challenged the norms of the music industry. With hits like "Cherry Bomb," The Runaways gained a significant following, but it was Ford's move to a solo career in the 1980s that truly cemented her status as a rock icon.

Her solo discography, highlighted by albums such as "Out For Blood," "Dancin' On The Edge," and the self-titled "Lita," showcases her prowess as a guitarist and a songwriter. Hits like "Kiss Me Deadly" and the power ballad "Close My Eyes Forever," a duet with Ozzy Osbourne, have become staples on rock radio and made her one of the most recognizable faces in rock music. Over the years, Ford has continued to evolve as an artist, experimenting with her sound on albums like "Stiletto," "Dangerous Curves," and more recently "Living Like a Runaway," and "Time Capsule." Despite the changing trends in music, Ford's raw talent and passion for rock n' roll have remained constants, earning her a dedicated fan base and respect among her peers. Her live performances, documented in releases like "Live & Deadly" and "In Concert," capture the energy and intensity that have been hallmarks of her career. Lita Ford's journey is not just a testament to her individual talent but to the power of perseverance and commitment to one's craft.
