I've seen Renaissance about 8 times, and besides Annie's voice and the music, what we loved and fell in love are Annie's giggles. Thank you Peter for this wonderful interview.
Love Renaissance, Annie Haslam is prog Queen!
yes...gorgeous voice she has
Saw this tremendously talented band twice at Massey Hall in Toronto. Annie's voice was so angelic and the rest of the band were brilliant musicians. Great to see live.
A delightful interview. Annie is a one of a kind treasure.
Gorgeous lady in the 70s and still 😍 a Gorgeous lady 2021
Never heard Renaissance before...I checked them out online. Annie has a tremendous voice and the band is impressive. The interview was fun to listen to. She’s very charming. Will be listening to her music. Hope the best for her and the band and for ALL all of us.✌️🙏
Bill E. If you have Sirius radio, they sometimes play them on Deep Tracks (Channel 27).
Annie and her lovely northern flat vowels!
Annie! I came running when I saw this. Love Rennaissance! Saw then live three times and every show was incredible!
RIP Peter Green... this was excitement and a bummer
Annie used to live in near me in PA. Never met her but I know people that did. Said she is wonderful.
Lol we are in the same county shes about 7 miles from me. I saw her at the tower a few years ago. Phenominal performance!
As a member of the Renaissance Appreciation Society in the 70’s, I was privileged to meet the band backstage. The guys in the band were amazingly friendly and Annie doubly so. I was aware not to be a jerk so I only said hello. Great band. Ocean Gypsy is my favourite.
She still has this young girlish sound in her voice when she talks.
Who wouldn't love this classy lady?
I'm in Upstate N.Y. And in the 70s Annie and the boys were absolutely huge here, I saw them 4 times..I also love her solo record Annie in Wonderland..
Annie has so much class!
Their concerts memorized me,put me in a musical classical trance!
I have been a fan since I first heard "Sounds of the Sea" in 1972. I first got to hear the band perform live in a grubby, former bus parking garage, a block from the beach in Asbury Park , New Jersey. Opening for them was was an unknown NYC band that had just released it's debut album , KISS. I remember, amid the smoke machnes and fire spewing hearing "Strutter", and "Cold Gin" , songs I still love. But I was there for Renaissance, and they did not disappoint. "Ashes Are Burning" was of course the best song of the night, but "Things I Don't Understand" struck me most. i still love that song. God bless Annie.
How wonderful Annie is!!..73 and beautiful as ever in all ways..loved the dragonfly story, and her love for animals..such a talent~Thanks Pete for another great interview!
Love Annie! She always was and still is able to take one to her magical place.
There are no crushes in prog. Well, Annie's an exception to the rule. Annie looks great and remains a very talented artist. Renaissance was a game changer for me. All great musicians, but her angelical voice and Jon Camp's bass, doesn't get any better. RIP Mike Dunford. Hope you and Peter Green coincide in a jam soon, wherever you are.
And don't forget John Tour's keyboard work, especially piano and Terry Sullivan's colorful percussion.
Annie Haslam is so much older than me but she's an inspiration to all!! Glad to know she has pets too!! "Pete" your so lucky to know her. Annie is a great person and so are you!! I'm a singer and guitar player and love music!! Thank you so much for taking your time to do all your videos!! I appreciate it very much!! Life is better with music!! Take Care.🎤🎸🎵🥁
Pete, your patience is astounding. Another fabulous interview with a rock legend.
She is fabulous! I first started listening to renaissance in January of 1987! The first album I listened to was live at Carnegie Hall. One listen was all it took. I bought 5 more albums that same week.❤️
Holy S****! Thanks for reposting Pete. I missed this one the first time. What a absolute prog legend. Some folks don't even know!
Awesome, she is a amazing singer, I absolutely love renaissance..
huge Renaissance fan, Prologue to Novella being my favs.
Exactly! Prime Renaissance. A Song for all Seasons was decent as well.
Great to see Annie. Always loved Renaissance.
I was in love with Annie in 78 as a 17 year old , still such a lovely lady 😎
I had a few Renaissance albums back in the day on vinyl. And largely forgot about them, you did a ranking an albums show recently about them that kick started a reemergence of a love of their music. Thank you Pete. Renaissance is so beautiful and epic and unique. What a great voice Annie Haslam has.
I still have to listen to "Touching Once is so Hard to Keep" every so often! I am still in love with the Annie from the live performance video they did of that. Sheherazade is another periodic must, even 40+ years later!
I first heard Renaissance only last year after a recommendation from both the lead singers of Opeth and Ghost. Turned out that their taste was spot on, I love this band now and have purchased 6 of their albums.
Interesting. I discovered Opeth about a couple years ago. Every so often I Google for Prog. Been a fan of Renaissance since the 70's. I like Opeth --- not so much the screamo cuts but everything else - especially the later stuff.
GO FIGURE MIKAEL IS A FAN OF THIS BAND LOL
@@MsThebeMoon The "screamo" stuff is their best material lol
love Annie! the voice of an angel...
Another GREAT interview Pete !!! Annie is adorable..Im so happy to hear she still has her instrument after all this time...what a range!!! I'm listening to "Ashes Are Burning" right now!!! Thank you Pete. =) 73 years old and she has a "boyfriend"! God love her!!!
Annie and Renaissance's music is so serious and quite honestly, pretty intense, you'd never think of her as being so loose and funny as she is. very refreshing to see her in this light. an incredible talent, a voice that's for want of a better word, angelic and a great sense of humor. another incredible interview, Pete. love your laid back style of interviews, just very, very enjoyable. 👍👍
FANTASTIC! Got to love Annie, so full of life, spirit and soul. So pleased to see her at Newcastle UK not so long back, totally sublime.
Nice!! Renaissance are an awesome underrated band. Haslam's voice is amazing, too.
The one song I always thought would be a good song for a radio edit would have been "Day Of The Dreamer." By editing out the slow section in the middle, the upbeat start and end of the song fused together could have been released as the follow-up single to "Northern Lights." It might have appealed to more of the Rock crowd along with the Pop music crowd and been another hit for the band.
Great inspiration for bands like Glass Hammer, and Kaipa. Used to listen to Renaissance in the 70s and 80s. Thanks, Annie
Wow! What an unexpected treat, thank you Pete and Annie of course.
Lancashire lass and stunning voice.
Wow ! What a lovely surprise to find Pete interviewing Annie Hallam .
I’ve loved the music of Renaissance since “ Ashes are burning “ and still enjoy listening to their music
Wow~! One of my favorite singers ever.
She's so cool! I have to admit that I had a huge crush on her when I was younger. Her and Jinx Dawson. :)
I love Renaissance. Music you can love all your life. 🇬🇧 👍
Wonderful interview... thanks for arranging this !!
I only (re)discovered Renaissance in the last two years. Love the band! Love Annie. such a distinctive voice that takes you to wonderfully good places.
NOVELLA has been my Fave Renaissance, since I purchased it in January, 1977. My first Renaissance show was February 20,1977, a Novella tour performance at the fabulous Philadelphia Academy of music!
so perfect...annie is amazing and still so beautiful...i still have my copy of novella that i got signed by the band...saw them at carnegie hall back in the day....what can ya' say...glad that they're remembered....thanks pete...peace...rocky
Great voice - saw them at Penn State on the Camera Camera Tour. Annie's voice was the highlight of the show
Love her music, Amazing Band!
Oh wow! I just found this. I follow Annie on FaceBook too and she is always absolutely wonderful. By the way, she set my Alexa off during this interview too. LOL
In an alternate universe she is my ex-wife and I am a pathetic broken man because of it. Talent, class, and beauty in one person. Love you Annie Haslam.
Love Annie, real class. Great interview.
Well that interview had everything! Wonderful insights, terrific stories, art, tomatoes, dogs, an Alexa moment. And just great to hear Annie's thoughts on so many things. Nice one, Pete. That was an interview to treasure. Off to listen to Ashes are Burning now...
Annie, still a Lancashire red rose. Top interview.
great!
Annie, thanks for making our world more beautiful!
Met Annie a while back after an Annie's Renaissance performance in Bath, ME @ at venue called The Chocolate Church. So cool!!
Annie...thank you for everything.
Wow. Thank you. I met her in 1982! Saw them a few times back then. 1 of my favorite bands.
I’ve always loved Renaissance. Annie’s voice is incredible. But as I watch this I’m realizing how sweet Annie Haslam actually is. What a sweet woman. Very down to Earth. If not for this interview I would’ve never known.
Another outstanding interview Pete. You’ve really been on a roll lately with all the killer content. I learned about Renaissance from your channel, and now I’ve been listening to them steadily. Thankyou!
I really love this band. Great interview!
This was very special- thank you, Pete! I love Renaissance and grew up listening to their classic albums, as well as seeing them in concert numerous times. I saw some very special gigs, including the Carnegie Hall concert with the orchestra that was recorded for the live album. Annie has the most phenomenal, gorgeous voice, and she's a genuinely nice person- I met her in the early '80s when I was a journalism student and I interviewed her and Jon Camp backstage at the Paradise Theater in Boston. May the amazing music of Renaissance live on!
Annie In Wonderland did come out fabulous.
Thanks so much for this interview. I got to see Renaissance play live twice, for "Turn Of The Cards" at Convocation Hall at the University of Toronto, which is a fairly small venue, and then I saw them again at Massey Hall for the Scherezade tour. Absolutely fantastic both times.
Another great interview, Pete! Annie is a treasure for sure. Love Renaissance - saw them live more times in the 1970's than any other artist.
Thanks Pete, love Annie and the legend that is Renaissance
love..love.love.love.....
My favorite thing about quarantine so far!
great interview! love annie.
Lovely to see this. Unsurpassed singing talent.
Great interview Pete! I live in São Paulo and I was going to see them when they came here. I hope they come back..
Great interview. I saw a wonderful Renaissance performance in Asbury Park NJ back in 77 or so. Thanks for all the excellent music Annie.
Thank you for your weekend chat with Annie Haslam of Renaissance. Great interview with Annie. She's such an inspiration to all. I love the song 'Northern Lights' and have the vinyl/ CD of: Song for all Seasons. I would love to see her art work!!Thanks again,"Pete".
🎤🎸🎵🥁
Annie is a darling....Annie in Wonderland, purchased the album on release day. One of my faves... Great interview
Is that the Roy Wood one?
@@tutenvanman2715 Yes, nice gatefold with Roy Wood art
I got my album autographed by her. One of my favorite possessions.
Amazing woman, great arts. I could listen to her forever.
Hi Pete, what an honor to have a friendly talking with this wonderful artist. I am a real hard fan of Renaissance , and I still can have hope to see them here in Chile. At least she mentiooned that it was in their plans before pandemia came in. Anyway.....great video , I really enjoyed
great interview!
Gorgeous lady then Gorgeous lady now 😍 😘 ❤️ 💕
The greatest voice in progressive/art rock music, and whoever is second is not even close. Her music has brought great joy to my life and like she said, isn't that what great music does? A run of albums as strong as any band in any genre. In a golden era of music, Renaissance was shamefully under rated ! May her and her music live forever!
Great interview Pete!
Fantastic!
She is soooooooo English. Love her to bits. 😍👍🏻😁
Great interview, very entertaining.
Renaissance was my favorite band of the 1970s...I was 21 when Live at Carnegie Hall was released and the album changed my musical perceptions. It has left indelible memories along with their other albums. John Tout was a big influence on my piano playing.
Love listening to the magical one, Annie.i saw them in the early 1980’s and though not quite as good as in the 1970’s , I still loved the band and Annie. Yes Carpet of The Sun was played on radio in the seventies, you were just too younfpg to know that Mr. Pardo!👍🏻❤️☮️🎤🎸🎼🎼🎹
i think i saw them at least 3 times. always special.
We are waiting for you here in Brazil, Annie, when it's possible!
The Prog Queen!!! I Love Her!!
Oh, I remember this NEARFest. Annie had her artwork out on her vendor table. I spotted three lovely small paintings of hers of which seemed to be liked they needed to be grouped together. I purchased all three. Oh, later on, I needed a place to put/hide a wall hanging for Rob LaDuca in honor of his work on this and all previous NEARFest projects. So, anyway, later on, Annie and I went to my vehicle to get the wall hanging, and ouch! I almost locked the keys in the back of my vehicle. Annie pointed out, "Look, you are about to lock your keys in your vehicle". So, in a way, she saved my life! I really appreciate the artwork she does and am interested in finding out if she has any later pieces she has done.
This comment was made at the beginning of my viewing of this video, initially speaking of NEARfest.
Great interview! Just letting Annie be Annie! She's delightful!
Hi Pete, I'm just loving these interviews.About grandine il vento, if they had replaced il with nel it would have ment Hailstones in the wind ,whatever. Anyway I love Renaissance, my favorite album would have to be A song for all seasons.Annie has the most beautiful voice !!
the orchestrations on song for all seasons are incredible.
Novella is my favorite Renaissance album - but I love them all. Saw them line @ Robin Hood Dell in Philadelphia in the late 70's.
I Saw Annie Haslam and Renaissance Perform in The Mid 1980'S At "TOADS PLACE" In New Haven, Connecticut. It Was Quite A Thrill Hearing Her Perform "Carpet Of The Sun".
R.I.P. The great Peter Green. Annie along with Ann Wilson and Pat Benatar form the holy trinity of female rock vocalists.
Randy A 👍
I would put Sonja Kristina on the bunch!
I met Annie once and got my picture taken with her. I saw her solo once and once with Renaissance. She's a great singer. Her paintings are interesting too.
You set our Echo Dot playing Italian dinner music. Lol. Fantastic interview and great to see you. Your tomatoes are doing better than ours. God bless. We keep you in our prayers.
annie is lovely god bless her
I'm not too familiar with Renaissance's music over all, but Annie seems like an amazingly delightful lady and a wonderful human being !!!
You have a lot to look forward to. Start with Scherezade or Novella.
@@SRV2013 Or "Turn of the Cards" or "Ashes Burning" ;-)
@@Scottlp2 There all good, but Novella is the pinnacle of their music - and the songs aren't all that long, which could put off some people.
@@SRV2013 I came to Renaissance very late, only about 5 years ago, and Novella is a weak album to me. I like their music when it is upbeat and more rock than folk. I don't know why Novella is so highly regarded when it has no memorable songs to me except for Midas Man which is OK.
I will also say that my favorite music is more hard rock to Progressive rock so I am drawn more to the upbeat songs. Having said that, I do really like Ocean Gypsy even though I originally heard the cover of the song by Blackmore's Night. Carpet of the Sun, Running Hard, Black Flame, Vultures Fly High, Northern Lights, Day of the Dreamer, and Flight are the songs I tend to listen to the most. I do like some of the live versions of Ashes are Burning although it sometimes can drag on too long. The vocal tour de force by Annie near the end is the highlight of the song for me.
@@robertdendooven7258 To each his own. I've been listening to Renaissance since 1975 come from another direction.
The cool guitar mounted on it's stand!
I love the way Annie says ya for yes, exactly how my Aunties from Bristol said it, Lancashire is only very slightly close to West Country, it's incredible!!! 🥰
The English rose, Annie is. Perhaps the ‘70s primal female voice, hard pressed to think of another (British or otherwise) female singer exemplifying the decade as much. Maybe Karen Carpenter as far as America's concerned, for the UK/Europe I'd say Haslam embodies it like few others.
Karen Carpenter was a fan of Renaissance ironically.
