Wendy June Saddington also known as Gandharvika Dasi (26 September 1949 - 21 June 2013) was an Australian blues, soul and jazz singer, and was in the bands Chain, Copperwine and the Wendy Saddington Band. She wrote for teen pop newspaper Go-Set from September 1969 to September 1970 as an agony aunt in her weekly "Takes Care of Business" column, and as a feature writer. Saddington had Top 30 chart success with her 1972 solo single "Looking Through a Window", which was written and produced by Billy Thorpe and Warren Morgan of the Aztecs. After adopting Krishna Consciousness in the 1970s she took the name Gandharvika Dasi. In March 2013 she was diagnosed with esophageal cancer, and died on 21 June, aged 63.

Note: Released in Australia on the Infinity label in 1977, this is a reissue of the album 'Wendy Saddington & The Copperwine', which was recorded live at the Wallacia Festival in New South Wales in January 1971, plus a 1972 single, and a couple of extra tracks from the early 1970s with Wendy singing with noted Aussie rockers such as Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs, Ross Wilson, and Kevin Borich Express

 Bob's Chat

Out of all the various genres in my compilations, it appears that jazz is the least popular as I get the fewest comments from the jazz compilations. And it's only by your comments and feedback that I (and all music sharing blog operators) can gauge what is most popular and what isn't.

However, regardless of whether you like jazz or not, do yourselves a favour and have a good listen to today's jazz compilation: Best Of Jazz Vol 100 - Door Of The Cosmos Vol 02 - Ode To Sappho (1959-2024)

There are some truly remarkable tracks here for your listening pleasure in this very funky collection. Not just jazz buffs but everyone who likes good funky music, be it funky soul or funky rock, along with a few spacey/trippy things, will enjoy this one. Included among the many greats in this collection are: Carlos Santana, Jean-Luc Ponty, Gil Scott-Heron, John McLaughlin, Pharoah Sanders, Akiko Grace, Jack DeJohnette, Barbara Thompson, and Sun Ra.

I've been listen to it again today and digging it big time. So much so that it's going onto the flash drive in my car for frequent listening as I think it's the best jazz compilation I've compiled so far.

And Blues, R&B, Soul & Gospel Records continues, now up to Volume 161 with 21 great tracks dating from 1950 to 2007. Presented here today are Jimmy Rogers, Eddie Lang, Delbert McClinton & Bonnie Raitt, Omar Kent Dykes & Jimmy Vaughn, Elmore James, Johnny Guitar Watson, Bobby 'Blue' Bland, Elder Samuel Patterson, and several other blues & gospel greats.

So dig in my friends and enjoy the great free music here today. Don't forget to check out "Bob's Cellar", always lots of interesting and varied albums posted in the Cellar.
