I love Renaissance! I saw them live in 2009 and then again less than a year later in 2010.

 

Yep, Annie's voice is incredible. She's in her sixties now, so she's lost a little off her fastball, but still very good.

 

Ashes are Burning is probably the best of their albums, but everything from their main sequence is good:

 

Prologue

Ashes are Burning

Turn of the Cards

Scheherazade and Other Stories

Live at Carnegie Hall

Novella

A Song for All Seasons

Azure d'Or

I listened to some of their stuff on Youtube and I liked it. Still need to get their albums though.

I recommend their two-disc compilation: Tales of 1001 Nights, Volume I and Tales of 1001 Nights, Volume II. The first is better.

Here's the trailer to the new Renaissance DVD.

Annie is killer. I can't believe that she still can sing like that, especially at her age. Just WOW.

Michael Dunford was his name. I read a bit about his death and how the whole circumstances affected Annie. Edited by greyfriar

WOW is right, greyfriar! She's amazing!!

 

Cyclonus (thanks again! :) ) introduced me to this band some time ago, and while I still have much to hear, I absolutely adore the album Ashes are Burning--such brilliant work! She has an astounding voice and, based on the trailer, I'm so glad to hear that's still the case :)
