We'd like to meet anyone and everyone who loves the beautiful voice, music and spirit of the incomparable Sandy Denny.
When you listen to Sandy singing in the video montage below, you will understand what we mean by 'incomparable' And even though she is not featured visually here, we feel this montage has been put together with such a deep understanding of, and gentle sensitivity to, the essence of this beautiful song, that it deserves to be seen.
THE QUIET JOYS OF BROTHERHOOD
Written by Richard Farina, with the wonderful Dave Swarbrick on fiddle, Richard Thompson on electric dulcimer and Dave Mattacks on drums.
....
And we'd love to meet people who are as moved by Sandy's tender words as we are. These beautiful ones she wrote when she was just 19 years old. You can hear her singing them on the music player to the left.
WHO KNOWS WHERE THE TIME GOES - by Sandy Denny
Across the evening sky, all the birds are leaving
But how can they know it's time for them to go?
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
For who knows where the time goes
Who knows where the time goes
Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Ah, but then you know it's time for them to go
But I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time
For who knows where the time goes
Who knows where the time goes
And I am not alone while my love is near me
I know it will be so until it's time to go
So come the storms of winter and then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time
For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?
