Nobody can play a bass like that and sing so great as Jean Millington!, She never ceases to amaze me,,, love these ladies

Ever hear of this guy named Paul McCartney?

​@@generalyellor8188he can't play like she can. Beatles are better song writers than musicians.

This is what 50 + years of rock and roll talent sounds like. They forgot more about rock and roll than most bands today ever learned in the first place. Killer rhythm.

I discovered Fanny recently and this is awesome to watch and hear. She definitely is slapping that bass proper! The funk is strong here.

Yes! The Millington sisters are BOTH killin' it!

Playing bass and singing at the same time is not easy! Jeane manages to do it very well!

[@tjrox]

Drummer is rock solid as well. They are all great.

[@jonathanweiss7716]

Great players. I think their originals could have been better. Maybe if they had found a lyricist like the Dead (Robert Hunter) or Procul Harem. Their arrangementa of pop tunes are great.

I was at this rehearsal! I was mind-blown then, and I remain so.

I only just discovered these amazing ladies, it goes to show the Australian music industry in the 70s, obviously pre-internet, only let us hear what they thought would sell... I'm on the other side of 60... it annoys me intensely that I wasn't able to appreciate Fanny when I was a teenager. And now the rhythm section is mother and son? Just incredible.

[@JuneEsWorld]

Yes, absolutely incredible. xx

June is a damn good bass player. She should have been a session musician. Tight AF.

[@Hamer95USA]

As a Filipino/American male musician, there were few role models in the U.S. for people like myself to watch or learn from when I started out. I only knew of Filipino musicians or entertainers that were successful from the Phillipines being a nephew of Paraluman, the famous actress from the Phillipines. I didn't know who Jean or June Millington were until I read the Premier Guitar article and saw the videos related to the article. Their music was before my time but I give props to the Millington sisters for writing & playing great music, being a role model, being extremely talented, perservering in an industry that was male dominated & racist, and was one of the few Filipino/American female musicians to reach that level of success in a time when the music industry was still open to younger artists. Thanks June & Jean for keeping me inspired by their music & talent.
