Renate Knaup (Amon Duul II); Kate Bush; Floor Jansen; Annie Haslam; Grace Slick; Heather Findlay; Tarja Turennen and so on. Quite hard to pick an out right favorite when most prog female vocalists are well above average vocal performersSmile

Back to the topic at hand, I recently acquired The Gathering's "Mandylion", and yesterday listened to it for the second time - great music (I'd say more prog than metal, btw), and great vocals too. Anneke is the original who spawned a thousand copycats, beautiful without being gaudy, and a wonderful singer indeed.

Out of a harem of high-quality vocalists, such as Annie Haslam and Kate Bush mentioned here, I'm going for Petronella Nettermalm, as the present favorite. Not the best, but I seem to find something mildly ghastly and simultaneously beautiful in her performance, probably much due to Paatos' music.

This is why you should let Robin save the day...

that's right.... I tried to no avail to find pics of  Anna Galliano (keyboardist) and Liliana Bodini (vocals, guitar) of Zauber.  Also from RPI we also have Silvania Ida from Apoteosi as well.  Not too many from RPI land. Zauber being the only one I've heard from the 70's that had female instrumentalists.

I would have to say Sonja Kristina, seeing as she was the woman of many a fantasy in my teenage years.

Annie Haslam is a voice, rather than a woman... she mixes emotion and tecnic so well.

But my favourite female on Prog-rock is Jane Duboc, from Brazilian Bacamarte. Actually, she's a singer of Brazilian Popular Music (which is a sophisticated genre, rather than popular!), and appeared on "Depois do Fim" only as a guest. But what a guest appearancee! Her voice is amazing, she sings with such a power!
