I liked Sandy Denny’s voice - esp. on her solo stuff - not so much with Fairport as it was all going a bit too “Whack-fol-Diddley-aye-yay” for my liking. Prefer FC with Judy Dyble in their acid rock phase with Richard Thompson’s fiery guitar work:

Wonder if that had an influence, subconscious or otherwise, on Deep Purple's Strange Kind of Woman. Was struck by the similarity.

Hmm - could be. A bit like J.Tull’s “We Used To Know” on the Eagles “Hotel California”

Fairport at their innovative peak. Richard's guitar wonderfully sparse, Tyger in his Rickenbacker phase. Plus, of course, the ever-sardonic Mattacks. They never bettered this album, and Reynardine, along with Farewell, Farewell and Crazy Man Michael, were an unforgettable introduction to English folk-rock for many a teenager back in '69. It's telling that Fairport never even tried to replace Sandy. It would have been impossible.
