I vote for Patti Smith.
If she was prog I'd vote for her too, but I don't think she would be happy of being considered prog

I'm no expert on La Femme de Prog but I would've thought Kate "I had David Gilmour play guitar for me' Bush might've rated a mention.... 'Course she might be mentioned on one of the other nine pages of topic exploration so apologies if repeated...

Maybe Jennifer Batten, and those highly talented bass players (oh and singers - Imogen Heap and ... Joss Stone? - Jeff Beck gets as well... (that Live at Ronnie Scott's DVD / CD is the business btw...)

Diamanda Galas for me. Annie Haslam has a lovely voice, but Galas's music is just astonishing. I think Amanda Palmer (of The Dresden Dolls) deserves a mention here as well.

Inga Rumpf of Frumpy. No contestant to her voice when it comes to pwer and emotion. Have a look at "Take Care of Illusion":

Or "How the Gipsy Was Born":

She is over 60 now, but she still has i, as you can see here:

Sadly hardly anyone knows her outside of Germany.

Jill Saward when she was in Fusion Orchestra is a serious omission! Great voice, great on stage, and a multi-instrumentalist, too.

And Jo Hollands of FO2 should rank here!

I wasn't aware of Nick Mason's Lie For A lie.

Truth.

Something to look for.

But yes, Ms Reilly has three solo albums and I have two. She just needs a decent band.

Also on Nick Mason's Lie for a Lie. I wasn't aware of her making solo albums.

Not sure if mentioned over 8 pages but no Maggie Reilly? Just for her singing on Mike Oldfield tunes. She may have a wonderful voice but I recommend avoiding her solo albums, unless you like anonymous programmed computer pop of course.

But for her work with the Oldfield fellow, marvellous....

I voted for Annie Haslam, but I almost voted for "Whom have I forgotten?", which would represent a vote for Ruth Underwood.

Jane Duboc did excellent job in Bacamarte, but my vote goes to Clare Torry for classic The great gig in the sky

Largely agree except that Rockalise off Annie in Wonderland is the best thing she ever did, far better than any Renaissance, not so much compositionally but singing-wise (and personally I don't listen to Renaissance so much for the compositional aspects where they are not so interesting).  She also interpreted the traditional funeral song Going Home magnificently in that album.
