Title: Re: Sandy Denny Post by: billy on March 03, 2008, 04:58:30 PM thanks.your first quote in Heylin's book mentions you being carried out of there (Les Cousins) "feet first" a few times !
Title: Re: Sandy Denny Post by: Jamie73 on March 03, 2008, 05:00:37 PM Can you remember recording "Quiet Joys of Brotherhood" with Sandy on the "Sandy" album? That tune really, really stands up.
Title: Re: Sandy Denny Post by: Swarb on March 03, 2008, 05:54:07 PM yes feet first is right, and i recall the quiet joys as if it was yesterday

Jules the sleevenotes will tell you the answer.Dave Swarbrick - solo violin Yes but it doesn't say which tracks, Billy. It could just refer to Quiet Joys, so I'm still not sure about Sweet Rosemary.

Jules Well, no other fiddlers are mentioned in the list of appearing musicians, so you can be pretty sure it's Swarb. Thor-Rune Title: Re: Sandy Denny Post by: Jules Gray on March 05, 2008, 09:30:04 AM Well, no other fiddlers are mentioned in the list of appearing musicians, so you can be pretty sure it's Swarb. Thor-Rune Yes, well, I think so too. It's just that Big Trev also used orchestral players on that album. Jules Title: Re: Sandy Denny Post by: Jules Gray on March 05, 2008, 12:57:03 PM By the way, Swarb, even if it is irrefutably your good self on Sweet Rosemary - it's still worth digging out to play. Beautiful song, beautifully sung (and a fiddle beautifully played too).
