Sandy Denny solo live performance from 1971

Sandy Denny was not only a great great singer, but an inspired songwriter and performer. This footage was filmed around the time she released her first solo album, "The North Star Grassman and the Raven". Say no more really. Here she is at the height of her powers...

  2. Sandy Denny now there's a name form the past! I went to see her at the Newcastle City Hall, she was supporting John Martyn, with some of my folky friends and really couldn't get into her music at all. Maybe it was her constant giggling or he fiddling with her guitar that she couldn't tune, but she left me cold. Still my friends thought she was brilliant so what do I know?
