70s. Woman on vocals. Sax (or any brass)... If no brass, maybe a violin or cello.. Or at least jazz chords.

One of those random finds on YouTube. Glad to see it reviewed on here of course.

Someone (a rather well known figure in the prog community actually) taped me their first album a long time ago. I always thought they sounded like a female fronted Van der Graaf Generator. However, apparently not everyone agreed with my assessment.

I recommend their album Dromology. It is more avant-garde than Catapilla; less relaxed, more neurotic, you may not be into it. But it certainly is a woman voice over jazzy brass chords.

There is only one Catapilla, I will tell you that. I find the vocals pretty annoying, at least on the first album. Try the following:
Affinity - s/t (1970). Beautiful vocals by Linda Hoyle, jazz influenced prog-rock with brass and string arrangements on few tracks.
Room - Pre-Flight - female vocals, plenty of horns and violin. Stylistically, one of those albums hard to categorize, but definitely with jazzy feel.
Tomorrow's Gift - s/t (1970) debut by German jazz-rock / fusion band with female vocals. The vocals are in English.

Thanks!

I have to agree with the vocals... On the 2nd album (which is the first one I listened to) were more "sweeter", but on the first, it wasn't as soothing, and more rough.

I love Linda Hoyle. I know Affinity ("Night Flight"), but I've listened to more Linda Hoyle. "Paper Tulips" might not be prog, but it's such a wonderful vocal, and a nice song to boot.
