Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Sandy Denny, the folk queen of the 70s! "Sandy" is a delightful mix of hauntingly beautiful ballads and toe-tapping folk tunes that will transport you to the English countryside faster than you can say bangers and mash.
Denny's ethereal voice soars on tracks like "It'll Take a Long Time" and "Listen, Listen," sending shivers down your spine and making you wish you were wrapped in a woolly jumper by a roaring fire. The lush arrangements on songs like "Bushes and Briars" and "Late November" are a masterclass in folk instrumentation, with intricate guitar picking and gentle strings creating a rich tapestry of sound.
But it's not all about melancholy and introspection on "Sandy" - tracks like "Solo" and "Like an Old Fashioned Waltz" will have you tapping your feet and twirling around the room in no time. Denny's songwriting is sharp and insightful, with lyrics that cut straight to the heart of the human experience.
Overall, "Sandy" is a timeless classic that showcases Denny's talents as a songwriter and performer. So grab your favourite mug of Earl Grey, curl up on the sofa, and let Sandy Denny's enchanting music whisk you away to a simpler, more poetic time. Cheers, love!
