A brand new collection of vintage ’60s recordings by the late Fairport Convention and Fotheringay singer Sandy Denny, simply titled “Early Home Recordings,” is to be released by Earth Recordings on September 27, 2024.
The collection comes authorised by the Denny Estate, features recordings largely made between 1966 and 1967 and includes two different rare demos of her classic “Who Knows Where the Time Goes” from 1967 (before she recorded it with Strawbs) and another from 1968.
Also featured are “Boxful Of Treasures,” which was later rewritten as the song “Fotheringay” (from Fairport Convention’s “What We Did On Our Holidays” album). “Fotheringay” also appears on “Early Home Recordings” in demo form.
The set also features covers of songs by Jackson C Frank, Fred Neil, Anne Briggs, Bob Dylan as well as many traditional Folk songs.
All the tracks have been carefully remastered, this package includes an exclusive new essay from Fairport Convention biographer Patrick Humphries – who knew Denny personally. Denny‘s daughter Georgia Lucas’ own charming drawings of her mother making their first appearance on an official Denny release, plus previously unpublished images of Sandy’s 1960s passport and driver’s license. There are also extensive sleeve notes by re-issue producer Pat Thomas.
