A bit of both, Dan. It’s a collection of my writings on Sandy which have appeared in magazines, album notes and online over the years, together with new material and a host of photos, some of them previously unpublished.

Several years ago, I remember suggesting to you that expanding your thoughts on Sandy would be a marvellous idea. Many congratulations to you.

Title: Re: New Sandy book - Sandy Denny: Reflections on her Music Post by: Philip W on September 18, 2011, 10:15:01 AM It's on Amazon. £7.49. Bang goes the profit margin! Actually, royalties are based on the cover price, so it doesn’t make any difference to the author how much they knock off. Amazon take a bigger percentage than other booksellers, which is how they are able to discount books so heavily (and offer free postage) while still turning a handsome profit. Not that I’m complaining. Last time I looked on Amazon the book was nudging Dylan’s Chronicles in the ‘folk bestsellers’ -- and I haven’t even seen the final proofs yet!
