Description
Two Sandy Denny solo albums. Dispatched via Royal Mail to UK addresses only. No international postage.
Items include:
• Sandy Denny’s first solo album The North Star Grassman and the Ravens: Released in 1971, it is distinguished by its elusive lyrics and unconventional harmonies. Highlights included "Late November", inspired by a dream and the death of Fairport band member Martin Lamble, and "Next Time Around" a cryptogram about Jackson C. Frank, one of her many portraits in song.
• Sandy with a cover photograph by David Bailey followed in 1972 and was the first of her albums to be produced by Trevor Lucas. As well as introducing eight new original compositions, the album also marked her last recording of a traditional song, "The Quiet Joys of Brotherhood" (words by Richard Fariña), with Denny's ambitious multi-tracked vocal arrangement inspired by the Ensemble of the Bulgarian Republic.
Melody Maker readers twice voted her the "Best British Female Singer" in 1970 and 1971.
I do not grade - and cannot play - my vinyl, so I cannot guarantee playing quality. However, the records looks in generally good condition, with no significant surface marks.
The sleeves look in generally good condition (please see photos).
