Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Sandy Denny was one of Britain's greatest singers, in many ways the English Janis Joplin. She became famous as the distinctive singer of folk-rock pioneers Fairport Convention, and later with Fotheringay, as well as releasing four highly acclaimed solo albums. Sandy was also Led Zeppelin's one and only guest vocalist. This biography of Denny is the first ever published and was written with full access to her personal papers. It includes interviews with all those who were close to her both personally and professionally.
