  • Fairport Convention's co-founder Simon Nicol doing justice to (the late) Sandy Denny's famous song and re-introducing Dutch singer Linde Nijland in Zaandam, The Netherlands in a church, named De Vermaning van de Doopsgezinde Gemeente. Linde Nijland is known in the Lowlands for her Sandy Denny interpretations.
    She has been invited by producer Joe Boyd to perform with a large Fairport Convention line-up before, some years ago, at the Barbican in London. Must have been some celebration of the group, founded in 1967 ;-)
    Simon Nicol - guitar, vocals, Ric Sanders - violin, Chris Leslie - many instruments, Dave Pegg - bass guitar, Gerry Conway - drums

    This was and is...a beautiful song. Yes, when Sandy Denny sang it was so wonderful. She really had a beautiful voice. I've missed that voice for so long. But at least there is this. A great group from the 70s for me, anyway.

      There's a delicate quality to Linde's voice that brings out the poignancy of Sandy's lyrics--her voice sounds so young and yet she sings the lyrics with the voice of experience to capture the song's sense of regret and sadness. Yes, she should have sung the entire song, as a female singer's tribute to the female singer/songwriter who wrote this lovely song.

      Chris Whiles brought me to the edge of tears when she sang this at Cropredy a few years ago. She easily caught he spirit of the song that was very reminiscent of Sandy.
      Years before, Vicky Clayton however, sounded exactly like Sandy and the tears did flow. That was when I realised that too close an imitation can be a most disturbing experience, not at all welcome or enjoyable; spooky in fact.
