Title: Iain Matthews and Sandy Denny Post by: Jack O Diamonds on April 06, 2009, 09:12:03 AM God they were good together for the few (very few) short months they were together in FC... I was just listening - for the first time in ages - to Iain's 1970 album "If You Saw Through My Eyes" to the title track - Iain and Sandy singing so well together... I commend the track to all here...

I'm now playing my Universal Archive Collection CD which includes Tigers Will Survive as well as If You Saw Through My Eyes: Reno Nevada playing at the moment. It's all so beautiful ... I love Ian/Iain Matthews! Iain and Sandy - definitely a pairing made in heaven :D

Title: Re: Iain Matthews and Sandy Denny Post by: DaviD J (was geriatrix) on April 06, 2009, 12:14:54 PM Iain certainly has a superb voice,and, I've said it before, I would just love to hear Iain and Julianne Regan singing together... That's one for the pigs might fly, hell freezing over, department, as Julianne is currently "resting" from live performances.
I wonder who will be doing the "Sandy" parts at the Barbican... And I do hope Iain is allowed to do more than just backing vocals. Title: Re: Iain Matthews and Sandy Denny Post by: Pat Helms on April 06, 2009, 05:34:54 PM Wonderful track (and album), indeed. Much of it seems like your listening to HOLIDAYS, part 2.

And I do hope Iain is allowed to do more than just backing vocals. From the Barbican's own site ... not that that's much to go by ;) "The line-up for the Barbican Concert will be combinations of Simon Nicol, Ashley Hutchings, Dave Mattacks, Dave Pegg, Iain Matthews, Dave Swarbrick and Richard Thompson – and an array of guest singers." I'm hoping Kellie While will be one of them. Wileytown, I agree with you about the Holidays similarity - it's just what Katy's Dad and I were saying this morning when IYSTME was on the CD player. |
