Sandy Denny, Borrowed Thyme

 

CD SDCD 2000 - SDCD03

 

"Borrowed Thyme" è un cd che contiene la bellezza di 17 demo, per lo più registrati in occasione di concerti in folk club,  e 7 registrazioni radio per la BBC, queste ultime di qualità alquanto scadente. Ma a giustificare la ricerca di questo Cd di non facile reperibilità è la presenza di due versioni di "Fotheringay" davvero eccezionali, al punto da chiedersi se esse non meritassero una released ufficiale.
