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.
