#GreatWomenInRock Jinx Dawson, lead singer of OG occult rockers Coven & top 40 hit maker thanks to ‘One Tin Soldier’. Credited with popularizing the sign of the horns - she was flashing it years before the boys caught on - she’s still touring with Coven today. #JinxDawson #RockHonorRoll 3/9
Just got the 🤘 #Coven 5 #CD set with book. Trailblazers in dark and moody #rockmusic Founded in '67. Bassist Oz Osborne, a song called #BlackSabbath , the coincidences are interesting. #JinxDawson is a great #vocalist and brilliant pioneer of women in #classicrock #60smusic #70smusic 💀🔥 #occult
#QuickSidenote 🇺🇸 Occult-rock pioneers Coven earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1971 when their version of the Brian Lambert & Dennis Potter-penned “One Tin Soldier” spent 6 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #26. #Coven #JinxDawson #BillyJack #OneHitWondered
#Interestingly To add to the confusion at this time, MGM signs Coven… who rush out their own version of “One Tin Soldier.” Theirs, I believe, is the version that briefly spent some time on Billboard’s Hot 100 in 1973, peaking at #79. #Coven #JinxDawson #MGM #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly Jinx Dawson was brought in to sing “One Tin Soldier” with the orchestra hired by the producers of the film Billy Jack. She did not want to be credited as a solo artist and fought to keep the band name (Coven) on the record (and also in the film credits.) #JinxDawson #OneHitWondered
#OneHitHistory 🇺🇸 occult-rock pioneers Coven earned US #Billboard #Top40 honors the week ending October 30, 1971 when their cover of “One Tin Soldier” entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #39. It spent 6 weeks on the chart, peaking at #26. #Coven #JinxDawson #BillyJack #OneHitWondered
