Críticas:
I've Always Kept a Unicorn is rich in insight from those who loved and despaired of her. While never over-embroidering the story, Houghton builds it through the intelligent and sensitive recall of everyone from Thompson to the Guardian's Richard Williams. The Guardian Mick Houghton's scrupulously researched biography draws a detailed picture both of Denny's increasingly complex mental state and of the London folk scene in the Sixties and Seventies. . . [An] authoritative and comprehensive biography. Fiona Sturges Independent Houghton unpicks her story with sensitivity, but does not shy away from the more unpalatable details. . . [An] admirably level-headed account. Graeme Thomson Mail on Sunday I've Always Kept A Unicorn lays legitimate claim to being the most comprehensive account yet of a career of often unrealised promise Uncut 8/10 A flaws-and-all celebration of one woman and her timeless music Mojo 4**** Expertly written, definitive biography Shindig 5****
Reseña del editor:
I've Always Kept a Unicorn tells the story of Sandy Denny, one of the greatest British singers of her time and the first female singer-songwriter to produce a substantial and enduring body of original songs. Sandy Denny laid down the marker for folk-rock when she joined Fairport Convention in 1968, but her music went far beyond this during the seventies. After leaving Fairport she formed Fotheringay, whose influential eponymous album was released in 1970, before collaborating on a historic one-off recording with Led Zeppelin - the only other vocalist to record with Zeppelin in their entire career - and releasing four solo albums across the course of the decade. Her tragic and untimely death came in 1978. Sandy emerged from the folk scene of the sixties - a world of larger-than-life characters such as Alex Campbell, Jackson C. Frank, Anne Briggs and Australian singer Trevor Lucas, whom she married in 1973. Their story is at the core of Sandy's later life and work, and is told with the assistance of more than sixty of her friends, fellow musicians and contemporaries, one of whom, to paraphrase McCartney on Lennon, observed that she sang like an angel but was no angel.
