BBC Review by Colin Irwin
A 19-CD box set? Twenty one and a half hours of music? A 72-page book?Artefacts that include a receipt for her first piano? Who said the musicindustry no longer had money to burn?
For anybody unfamiliar with Sandy Denny’s yearning, evocative songs, herteeteringly vulnerable vocal style and the erratic contours of a career thatended shockingly in a fall downstairs in 1978 when she was 31, thiseye-watering project may seem like ludicrous indulgence.
Yet while Denny was far from being a household name and—apart from acomedy French version of Bob Dylan’sSi Tu Dois Partirwith Fairport Convention—never had a hit, her cult status hasremorselessly risen in a manner comparable to her contemporary Nick Drake,with a swathe of younger artists mentioning her in dispatches and freshgenerations seduced by her beguiling melancholia.
This is not even the first box set in her name—the excellent five-CDA Boxful of Treasures came out in 2004. But when you consider compiler Andrew Batt has not onlyassembled everything she commercially recorded, but 100 previously unreleasedtracks, you get a measure of the extraordinary exhaustiveness of theproject.
It dates from her earliest recordings with the Strawbs to encompass herclassic folk-rock adventures with Fairport Convention and Fotheringay andalternative versions of her momentous first venture into songwriting with whatbecame 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 huskysensuality of a voice that applies gravitas even to the unsuitable throwawaymaterial to which she was occasionally unaccountably drawn.
Sandy Denny Box Set Rare
Nobody would surely miss lame covers likeSilver Threads and Golden NeedlesandWalking the Floor Over You(even in duet form with Richard Thompson), but her home demos in particularreveal a natural emotional depth scarcely replicated by any other Britishsinger. She was a troubled personality with a flawed career but this setoverwhelmingly proves that, irrespective of genre, she merits inclusion amongthe all-time greats.
