Not prog, but my my favorite song by her, "Land" is written in several different movements (most notable being the infamous "Horses" . Decent instrumentals, fantastic lyrics. I enjoy more of her other material although it's the least bit prog.

Great singer. Favourite songs: Dancing barefoot and Because the night.

Her first three albums are all excellent, but Easter is the essential album IMO. Like contemporary albums by Television, Talking Heads and Pere Ubu this was new wave with some seriously interesting musical ideas.

One of my favourite female rock artists to come out of the 70's.

Favourite album is  Wave and favourite track Dancing Barefoot.

Great! I love Because The night (definitely a true CLASSIC) and in more experimental vein Radio Ethiopia/Abissinia.
Note that keyboard wizard was Allen Lanier of Blue Oyster Cult fame...
