Fotheringay 1970 Too Much Of Nothing Beat Club

BeatClub Fotheringay was a shortlived British folk rock group, formed in 1970 by singersongwriter and musician Sandy Denny on her departure from Fairport Convention. The band drew its name from her 1968 composition Fotheringay about Fotheringhay Castle, in which Mary, Queen of Scots had been imprisoned. The song originally appeared on the 1969 Fairport Convention album, What We Did on Our Holidays, Denny s first album with that group. The original Fotheringay released one, selftitled album but disbanded at the start of 1971 as Denny embarked on a solo career. Fortyfive years later, a new version of the band reformed featuring the three original surviving members together with other musicians, and toured in 2015 and 2016.
