calypsus_1 Oct 18, 2011 - 20:21 | Sandy Denny and Fairport Convention - Farewell Farewell: Montage mixing footage of Sandy Denny singing with Fotheringay on "Too Much Of Nothing" (1970), with rare footage of Fairport Convention in 1970, just after Sandy Denny departed. Farewell Farewell. As somweone who lived through Sandy's carrier and was lucky enough to have seen her performe live not to mention her numerous albums and contrbutions along the way there was something about this lady's voice that was compelling that made you listen. A real privalage God be good to her saoirseterri "The understated work of the Fairport musicians helps, too, in creating a rich tapestry to ground that ethereal voice". Excuse my giving your words the royal quote treatment, but you say it so well. The voice really was of a mystical perfection. And the band has a way but is never in the way. written12 |

medoras Jan 17, 2011 - 15:04 | Good for you Bill! It's great to have a station that plays Fairport Convention and Sandy Denny instead of the mindless teen drivel that you hear elsewhere. |
MinMan Nov 15, 2010 - 11:42 | 40 years later and this still moves me. |
CamLwalk Nov 15, 2010 - 11:41 | Sandy sang like an angel. Gorgeous. (Very pretty guitar from Richard to boot). |

Yes, 30 years later and Sandy almost 30 years dead and still the only person to come close in my estimation is the new Patty Griffin. This is the saddest song I know. Exquisite sadness. |
