Sandra also seems to have had some involvement with this LP release, https://www.discogs.com/release/7618605-Elisabeth-Wiener-Manitas-De-Plata-Kourako-Or-La-Guitare-Aux-Cordes-DOr, but the nature of the same is not obvious to me "Conte de Sandra Jayat" on front cover...)
Just going by what it says on discogs, it looks like the LP is a children’s story written by Jayat, read by Weiner with guitar accompaniment.
Thanks Stu! According to my own page on Sandra (now published to Wikipedia), "Kourako" was a children's story that she published in 1972. In this story, a child goes in search of a fabled guitarist who lives in harmony with nature (whoever could that be)... from the LP title his guitar also has strings of gold.
Reading further it seems that the child discovers that his hero no longer exists but learns that he has it within himself to produce beautiful music on his own strings of gold... for the full story see here: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=inu.30000105045664&view=1up&seq=126
