Free Music Notes for Fotheringay (Reis)Free Music Review: British Folk Rock Zenith Hit: 5 Stars
It is very rare to be able to express your thoughts about a Work of Artists that Achieve Something as Beautiful or Timeless as this Music that is Presented here as "Fotheringay". First Released in 1970, it in it's self is best and purest Example of "British Folk Rock". This Record stands as such a Grand Achievement due to Sandy Denny. Less than a year after the release of Fairport Convention's groundbreaking "Liege & Lief", this was her Moment, and for one reason or another it was all but ignored by the Masses.
These Finely Crafted Songs (Five by Sandy) and Trevor Lucas (Two) Stand up as well as anything from the Traditional Songbooks that other Folk Rock Bands were Raiding. It is almost a contradiction to have Music this Powerful to be so Played in Such a Gentle Manner, But it DOES work and that is why "Fotheringay" is so Unique. And when this Band performs the Work of other Artists;(Dylan & Gordon Lightfoot) it Blends in so well you are led to Believe that Sandy or Trevor wrote these Gems as well. That said, my Favorite Track on this record was always "The Way That I Feel".
I do think this is the Best Work of Sandy Denny's Career. Fotheringay contains some of her very best Compositions, and what can you say about her Voice? She was the Best Singer of her Day... and this CD is the Best of the Best. This Music belongs in any Music Collection.
This Version of this Classic Contains Four Bonus Tracks of the Band Live In Concert. The Live Material Echoes the Greatness of the Studio Versions and the Last Song: "Memphis Tennessee" is a Rocker that Previews Ms. Denny's next Project "The Bunch".
If you Enjoy Music, This CD will Floor You...FIVE STARS !!!
