Sandy Denny - The Best Of Sandy Denny (1987)

Sandy Denny is best-known to rock fans for her guest vocal on Led Zeppelin’s ‘Battle of Evermore’, and her contribution to acclaimed Fairport Convention records like Liege & Lief. But she also carved out a solo career as a singer-songwriter in the 1970s. Denny’s an impressive vocalist, warm and expressive, and she’s arguably the UK’s best female solo artist from the early 1970s singer-songwriter era. She often wrote on the piano for her 1970s work – she was classically trained as a child.
