Fotheringay

Fotheringay"Fotheringay ;;; would be a castle built on false foundations. The money keeping everyone on salsry was Sandy [Denny]'s, but she made me rite the contract for the egalitarian benefit of all. [Island Recorfs boss] Blackwell, [American label] A&M and I were clear about what we wanted: a record of Sandy's somngs, sung by Sandy, aith Sandy's name on the cover ... But she wanted to make Trevor [Lucas, her Australian boyfriend] her equal. The record we made includes some of her best performances; The Sea, The Pond & The Stream, Winter Winds, The Banks of the Nile; but the rest of the album is filler."" (Joe Boyd, White Bicycles: Making Music in the 1960s pp. 228-9)
