This review is from: Original Sandy Denny (Audio CD)
The most memorable tracks on this very first recording of the legendary Sandy Denny from 1967 are My Ramblin' Boy, The Last Thing On My Mind, Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor and You Never Wanted Me.
She sings with passion as her voice dips, soars and trembles whilst her guitar playing is mesmeric. I don't like all of the songs though and I think the material she recorded with Fairport Convention was generally of a higher quality.
But this is an essential album for lovers of 1960s folk music, especially of the UK variety. The genius of Denny was born and formed here on these early recordings, and her mastery of the acoustic guitar adds to the sonic enjoyment.
