You are a great treasure my FRiend

Never heard of Sandy Denny. Interesting use, back and forth from major to minor to major chords. I will explore them and your other links more.

Thx

My pleasure.

She’s the female voice in that duet with Robert Plant in “Battle of Evermore”.

She’s primarily known for her work with Fairport Convention and before that the Strawbs. I recall reading that she was misled into thinking she was getting signed to Steeleye Span when the Strawbs hired her.

She’s been dead a long time now. I think she fell off a ladder, but she also had alcoholism.

I posted a couple others in last month’s Musical Interlude.

One last comment, then I’ll shaddup. Of the female vocalists of the 60s, I don’t think I can choose between Sandy Denny and Julie Driscoll.
