7. Hank Williams, Jr.

8. Dolly Parton

9. Loretta Lynn

10. Randy Travis

Honorable Mention:

I thought I would mention, that the Queen of Country Music, Kitty Wells, recorded 70 singles during her career. She was the first female country singer to reach #1 on the charts with her 1952 hit, "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels."

She was the first female to sell 1 million copies of a recording in country music. Kitty is the one that knocked down the doors, of the dominated, "man's world in the country music industry," and paved the way for all women who would follow, from Patsy Cline to Taylor Swift.

She held the record for over 20 years of having 23 #1 hits on the country music charts, and over another 40 top ten hits. She was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1976.
