'''''Spirit Of '73: Rock For Choice''''' is a benefit compilation released in 1995. The proceeds from sales of the disc went to support Rock For Choice, a pro-choice organization. The theme of the album is female-fronted acts performing covers of female-fronted acts of yesteryear. To further drive home the theme, most of the songs covered here are from the late 60s/early 70s, a time in US history when abortion was a hot-button issue, culminating in the controversial Roe V. Wade case of 1973. | '''''Spirit Of '73: Rock For Choice''''' is a benefit compilation released in 1995.
