Sandy Denny is a 2010 compilation box set of recordings by folk singer Sandy Denny and comprises all studio material and recordings made during her time both as a solo artist and as a member of Fotheringay, Fairport Convention, and other groups, together with home demos and live recordings. It was the brainchild of Universal Music's marketing manager Sue Armstrong who worked closely with the Estate of Sandy Denny to create the definitive collection of Sandy's work.
