Come fall, colder weather and darker days, I always dig out my Sandy Denny collection, starting with her first post-Fairport Convention solo album "The North Star Grassman and the Ravens". The sound is murky, the songs tend to drag a bit, and Richard Thompson has his guitar set to "tinny", but for some reason, I really like it. However, as much as I hold that the artist's work is meant to be listened to as they presented it (full album not selected tracks), in this case I really appreciate the program feature on my CD player, because there are a few songs on here that really stink up the rest of the disc. That said, the best tracks are some of my very favorites.
