Annie Haslam for Crossover Prog?

^ Well, that's a start but you would have to add Blessing In Disguise, Still Life and The Dawn Of Ananda to that list of MOR albums, with her s/t debut falling between MOR and AOR. That's all of her albums after Annie In Wonderland. And MOR is not a bad word in my book. Frank Sinatra is the most famous and successful MOR artist ever and I doubt, if he we're still alive, would have any problem being labeled as such as he's laughing all the way to the bank.

I'll leave that for the relevant PA team members to decide between them. I don't want to get into a pointless argument about which category of prog Annie Haslam belongs in.  Annie Haslam's prog credentials are far stronger than those of Kate Bush or Tori Amos in my opinion.   Anyone who dismisses Annie Haslam as an "MOR Pop singer", as SteveG did earlier, clearly doesn't know much about music, so if anyone needs an education here, it's SteveG.

To make you feel better Paul, I meant that Annie's solo albums taken purely in isolation, would paint her as an MOR artist. A fact that she readily agrees with and has stated so on many occasions and is quite proud of that fact. She was making solo albums in order to make a living and did not see prog as a way of getting there at the time. Please be aware that many members like myself personally know Annie as well other prog artists, even though we don't publicize the fact, and we know of what we speak and would not say anything that these artists would find to be contrary. What they say is what we relate to others, no more no less. You may not need an education in musical genres but you definitely need an education in how to relate with other adults that you disagree with. I found your responses to be quite childish and annoying. As usual.

Annie Haslam for cross-over porn? Sure! Where are the videos?

Alrighty Paul, I'm one of Crossover Team members (and one of Related Team ones) so shall I take her to Team for eval?

Okay, let me put it another way: I have good reason to think you might be from Eastern Europe. good reason? do tell. I may be wrong but I seem to recall you mentioning you're from Eastern Europe in another forum. I don't remember that. And I am happy I don't have to mention where i am from, simply because sooner or later someone will misjudge someone else based on where one is from, which is not ok (to put it nicely). It's happened to me, not on PA, but still... If music brought us here, let's stick to that.
