'Sandy Denny' by Mark Olson

[davidmjs]

Was just downloading a recent Glasgow gig by the great Mark Olson (who used to be part of the Jayhawks and is married to Victoria Williams) and note that he is playing a song called 'Sandy Denny'.  I'll report back when I've heard it....

Yup. Someone on the SandyDennyList reported that this is a track on his new album.

While we're on the subject, Sandy Denny at the BBC is forthcoming from Universal. Seems to be a reissue of the deleted Strange Fruit CD, plus a second disc with a DVD of her TV appearance on One in Ten. Due out 9 July or 13 August, according to who you believe. Tracklist here:

Video here of him performing the song last week at Borders in LA:

Darned if I can see what the title and first/last lines have to do with the rest of the song, though.

Yep, I discovered that after I wrote it.  Sad, but I think they have said they are still playing together...
