SANDY DENNY

Sandy Denny - The Complete Recordings Box [2010] (19 x CD's + Booklet)

Sandy Denny -The Complete Recordings Box [2010] is a compilation box set of recordings by folk singer Sandy Denny and comprises all studio material and recordings made during her time both as a solo artist and as a member of Fotheringay, Fairport Convention, and other groups, together with home demos and live recordings. This set includes100 previously unreleased tracks. It dates from her earliest recordings with the Strawbs to encompass her classic folk-rock adventures with Fairport Convention and Fotheringay and alternative versions of her momentous first venture into songwriting with what became her signature song, Who Knows Where the Time Goes? (Voted the best folk track of all time in a 2007 BBC poll). She was 20 then, and the maturity of her composition is almost as striking as the husky sensuality of a voice that applies gravitas even to the unsuitable throwaway material to which she was occasionally unaccountably drawn.

This limited edition 19 CD box set includes 11 CD's featuring Sandy's complete studio recordings with Alex Campbell, Johnny Silvo, Fotheringay, Strawbs, Fairport Convention and solo with additional content: outtakes, demos and live recordings. There are eight CDs of bonus material: unreleased songs, demos, unreleased BBC recordings, alternate takes, live recordings, acoustic versions, and rare radio interviews. This set includes the legendarily long lost "Lord Bateman" and is lavishly packed with all-new artwork. It comes with a 72-page 11" square hardback book containing over 100 rare and mostly unseen photographs, Sandy's handwritten lyrics (many of which are unrecorded songs) and fascinating memorabilia. Each CD is housed in an individual gatefold digipak sleeve. The box also contains a reproduction of a beautiful original Island press pack, an exceptionally rare A3 promo colour poster for Northstar Grassman and the Ravens, a set of Postcards, the receipt for the purchase of her first piano and one of Sandy's handwritten notebooks.

For anybody unfamiliar with Sandy Denny’s yearning, evocative songs, her teeteringly vulnerable vocal style and the erratic contours of a career that ended shockingly in a fall downstairs in 1978 when she was 31, this eye-watering project may seem like ludicrous indulgence. Yet while Denny was far from being a household name and – apart from a comedy French version of Bob Dylan’s Si Tu Dois Partir with Fairport Convention – never had a hit, her cult status has remorselessly risen in a manner comparable to her contemporary Nick Drake, with a swathe of younger artists mentioning her in dispatches and fresh generations seduced by her beguiling melancholia.  (Amazon)

There is no doubt about the musical excellence of this Boxset. It is a truly astounding collection of Sandy Denny's work. Her home demos in particular reveal a natural emotional depth scarcely replicated by any other British singer. She was a troubled personality with a flawed career, but this set overwhelmingly proves that, irrespective of genre, she merits inclusion among the all-time greats.

  5. I accept it. I am an uncultured oaf. I just don't get it. Never really understood why people like her so much. I've tried, but like I said I must be uncultured and an oaf. Please tell what song I can listen to to change my mind.

    1. Hi Pol,
      Music is like that sometimes.
      I would suggest the track LISTEN, LISTEN, (Track 06 of CD7) a good one along with many others.
      and /or maybe ONE MORE CHANCE. There are several versions on this set.
      Cheers.
