I've always wanted to hear the Elektra Many Sides of Sandy Paton album, althugh Sandy said he hated it. I got my turntable hooked up today and listened to a borrowed copy of the record, and I see what Sandy meant. It didn't sound like Sandy at all. He sounded like Richard Dyer-Benet trying to sound like a Scotsman. Sandy was thirty years old at the time of the recording. I wonder if he wanted to do it that way, or if Elektra forced him.
Either way, it really didn't sound as good as the real Sandy Paton that I knew and loved.
