2nd row in front of the mic Simon used, when it's zooming in during the standing ovation, I look like a girl from behind though as my hair was down  |

Well, actually thanks to Chris B, who first spotted it (reply #157). Whatever - it's good to see it again. So rare to see Anne Briggs on camera, and even rarer to hear her talk with such warmth about Sandy. Makes you realise what a cracker a Sandy documentary could be if Bob Harris manages to get it together. |

Did they not get along? Jules On the contrary - they were good mates, albeit with divergent lifestyles (see Sandy's "The Pond and the Stream"). Sorry, Jules. I expressed myself badly. What I meant was that it's rare to hear her talking about her old friend, and her comments in this interview, about Sandy's "sense of song", show particular warmth. |

Oh yes of course - I'd forgotten that The Pond And The Stream featured 'Annie'. Jules |

It's interesting the way that the reporter describes her as 'The voice of Fairport Convention' considering she was only with them for a total or 3 or 4 years, out of 40. Just shows what a huge impact she had on the band. |

Independent Newspaper article: ’Fair Play To Her’ Sandy Denny: Fair play to her She became a Seventies folk icon, but faded out in a haze of alcohol abuse. Now Sandy Denny, voice of Fairport Convention, is getting the recognition she deserves, writes Robert Webb That's a bit harsh isn't it??  |

"She even rejoined Fairport Convention, for a half-hearted reunion set, Rising for the Moon."
That's a bit harsh too! There are one or two not particularly good songs on RFTM, but I'd hardly call "One More Chance" half-hearted. Interesting article, though - thanks for the link.

I suppose it seems sacreligious to say so, but I saw James Taylor last year when he came to the UK and I thought Fairport's version of Frozen Man is better.
I'm still a big fan of JT tho' having been introduced to his music when I was 12 by my older brother.
