Description
Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Known for her time as vocalist in Fairport Convention, Sandy Denny left a beguiling, ever-evolving body of work. After leaving Fairport Convention in late 1969, Sandy Denny formed Fotheringay with husband Trevor Lucas. After one UK Top 20 LP in summer 1970, the band split while recording a follow up, leaving Denny free to make solo albums. From it's David Bailey cover photo inwards, 1972's Sandy is arguably the definitive Sandy Denny album. Recorded at John Wood's Sound Techniques studio, and produced by Trevor Lucas, it adds some special guests into it's mix - 'Sneaky' Pete Kleinow from The Flying Burrito Brothers enhances 'It'll Take A Long Time' with his unmistakable pedal steel playing, and New Orleans legend Allan Toussaint adds a brass arrangement to 'For Nobody To Hear'. But it is Denny's album. Often, it is impossible not be stopped in your tracks by that beautiful, long gone yet so-full-of-life voice, especially on two of her career-bests - 'The Lady' and 'Listen, Listen'. Out of print on LP for a number of years, this re- issue faithfully replicates the original 1972 Island Records UK release.
