Live performance and chat with Peter Sando of Gandalf
 
At the end of the Psychedelic Sixties, the band Gandalf recorded an album for Capitol Records, which was released after they broke up and became a rare collectable LP. Peter Sando wrote their song "Can You Travel in the Dark Alone," which became a favorite of WNEW-FM's Alison Steele, "The Nightbird." Flash forward to current times, and Sando is still writing dreamy songs as a solo artist. Peter's third album "Let There Be Love" was released at the end of 2015. Peter Sando visited Irene's show to play live and chat about his musical past.

Peter Sando was Gandalf's guitarist and wrote two of their most popular songs. Gandalf was a psychedelic pop band whose album came out after they broke up.

Thanks jon! I love presenting live music and having the performers talk about their work. There's nothing like it!

The list of who has covered Nature Boy is amazing. I first heard the Grace Slick version with The Great Society. Had no idea about Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Massive Attack, Jon Hassell and others. Showing my ignorance of one of the jazz standards here.

Enjoying the guest!

Anymore - I only ever listen to streams (like this...mostly this) - & podcasts when I'm out & about w/ headphones...I'm quite poor & pay out the orifice to ComCast to bring everything to me...& they don't pay any song or artist royalties @ all - do they?...

New Sand Denny Collection-- superb! Have to play a few cuts. Sorry for the typo. KP, thanks for the Erica update. I've kind of lost touch with what she's up to.

Fotheringay is one of the few songs where the title is the last words in the song.

this consecutive way is how this Sandy Denny should be listened to, for those who listen to music.

Scraps, "tequilla" is another!

i.e., "Fotheringay" doesn't appear except in the last word in the song.

Tequila is repeated. :-)

She really has not been doing her own act at all so it was great to see. Response was fantastic. Until recently she lived near us so we ran into her a few times. That made it even better.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:21pm

- so she doesn't sing "fotheringay" but once in that? i guess i never heard all the lyrics.
