Hey, folks, which woman should be called as "The most representative woman in prog-rock scene"?

God, I'm second on the thread and he's already beaten me to her...

but don't forget Heather Findlay, Rachel Jones, Sue Element & Tracey Hitchings (for services rendered to British Prog in the last decade..)

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

Probably Annie Haslam, although Sonja-Kristina Linwood, Renate Knaup-
Krötenschwanz, Stella Vander and Dagmar Krause are also major figures.
But it's certainly a myth that there have been relatively few female
musicians in progressive rock: worldwide, there have been many
hundreds over the years.

women in amsterdam are very progressive

"...misty halos made visible by the spectral illumination of moonshine."

And other than vocalists try violinist extraordinaire, Caryn Lin - her Tolerance For Ambiguity (Alchemy Records) is an important, instrumental fiddle album produced and augmented by David Torn.

Amy Denio - vocalist, sax-player (founder member of the all ladies Billy Triptons Memorial Saxophone Quartet), bass player (played with Cow's Chris Cutler in Nude, Cow's Frith as the Tone Dogs ), etc. For more details: http://petit.sebastien.free.fr/denio.html where you'll find this album listed and good point to start (CIA has a fabulous bass riff)

What a name

Release Polls

Listened to:

okay:

as sex-symbol: rachel jones, kate bush, christina of magenta

as perfect singer: annie haslam, maggie reilly

as outstanding musician: anne-marie helder, miquette giraudy, ruth underwood, mireille bauer:

christina of magenta:

[HEADPINS - LINE OF FIRE: THE RECORD HAVING THE MOST POWERFUL GUITAR SOUND IN THE WHOLE HISTORY OF MUSIC!>

Hey Greenback, I believe it's unfair to qualify Christina from Magenta just like a sex symbol, she's a great vocalist with one of the prettiest voices I ever heard, almost in the same level of Annie Haslam, but more versatile.

Judge her as a musician not like a sex symbol (even when she's very pretty also).
