Still no mention of Maddy Prior.
You've done it again buzzer. I was singing 'inbetweener' all the way home earlier, trying to remember the name of the band.

Interesting all this talk about All About Eve. I happened to spend some time yesterday making a digital copy of my vinyl edition of the eponymous debut album, only to find that I already had a CD of it on the shelf nearby - and with two extra tracks. D'oh!
Oh, and the answer is "wild Hearted Woman" of course.
Lost little girl
In hurricanes of love and pain
Locked in her world
Of daisy chains and love and pain
Trying to find peace of mind.

My two favourites are Reagan & Bush, being Julianne and Kate, not the presidents.
However they have produced some rubbish AAE with the album Ultaviolet, and although waiting twelve years, Aerial has a couple of dodgy moments.

Try as hard as i can , but Annie Lennox's voice doesn't do it for me at all .I find her too cold and mannered : technically perfect , but emotionally frigid .

I know this is dreadfully unhip and not-very-with-it, but I'll dare to be square, becuase Dame Vera Lynn is VERY worthy of mention in this thread.
I saw her a few months back being interviewed on tv, and she just sang a couple of lines and sent a shiver down my spine!
What she meant to men fighting abroad in World War II, cannot be quantified.
Legend!

Got to love Babuschka - you should hear me belting it out whilst cleaning the shower - its enough to make the limescale jump of the taps!!

Good call re: Kate Rusby and June Tabor. Haven't heard any Anne Briggs stuff but I trust your judgement on that.
How about Annie Haslam from Renaissance?

Elizabeth Frazer, Lisa Gerrard, Kirsty (rip), Sarah Cracknell- chatted to her once, lovely lady. Listened to So Tough only yesterday- how British sounding an album is that?

And a vote for the delightful Sheila Chandra (although I suspect there are a few racists on here who would be troubled that she is British.)

Dusty Springfield is sadly missed.
