Sandy Denny was the original lead vocal of Fairport Convention.  Her voice
was just extraordinary.  She died very suddenly in an accident in 1977,
and that boxed set (Who Knows Where the Time Goes) was originally out from 
Hannibal many years ago on vinyl, just rereleased on CD.  The vinyl was 4
records, and produced by Trevor Horn, her husband.  Its got her solo work,
live, studio, and outtakes with Fairport, also a couple numbers from another
band she was with briefly called Fotheringay.  Also she did one album with
the Strawbs, which is represented.  If you havent heard Fairport this is
one set with some of their best.  Obv theres lots else that F.C. recorded
since, but nobody could recapture her sound.
