Incredible String Band bizzare and magickal

Incredible String Band is one of the most bizzare sounds ever imaginable. Listening to this band conjures images of elves and pixies. A "down the rabbit hole" kind of adventure is journeyed upon whilst listening to the Incredible String Band 's laments and melodies, sometimes magical, sometimes nonsensical, but never failing to enchant you with its lyrical wanderings.
I shall attempt to catalogue as much as i can here of Incredible String Band , discography etc. Pleaser remember to come back and keep checking here for new additions; my blogs get added to on old posts so it is important to re-read again and again until they are complete. I have a personality that likes to add and expand on matters, so i can't leave old posts alone when i get new ideas for something i would like to add.

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Credited with being the first artists to fuse folk and psychedelic sensibilities, the Incredible String Band benefited from having two very complementary frontmen. Robin Williamson and Mike Heron were also extremely versatile musicians, as this, their third album, indicates: he two of them play 17 instruments here, including harpsichord, water harp, sitar, and oud. While Hangman's is a fascinating record dense with exotic rhythms and instrumentation, it also suffers in spots from the airy excesses of its creators. --Steven Stolder

< a type="amzn">Across the Airwaves: BBC Radio Recordings 1969-1974 (2007)
Lyrics เนื้อเพลง:
Worlds they rise and fall within her eyes
She gives the eagle wings
To fly her skies
Upon her breath the four worlds live and die
And sometimes
Its all I can do is bow to her

Chorus:
But when the moon is misty through the trees
Right now she says I want to be
Your girl, your little girl

Stars they rise and fade, around her dance
For her the steep is climbed
The gulf is spanned
She lives, she lives, the bards sing, around her stand
And sometimes
Its all I can do is bow to her

Chorus

# Living in The Shadow






First Girl I Loved


Across the Airwaves: BBC Radio Recordings 1969-1974 (2007)
Lyrics: เนื้อเพลง:
Time has come I will sing you
this sad goodbye song,
When I was seventeen, I used to know you.
Well, I haven't seen you, now, since many is the short year,
And the last time I seen you, you said you'd joined the
Church of Jesus.
But me, I remember your long red hair falling in our faces
As I kissed you.
Well, I want you to know, we just had to grow;
I want you to know, I just had to go.
And you're probably married now, house and car and all,
And you turned into a grownup, female, stranger.
And if I was lying near you now,
I probably wouldn't be here at all.
Well, we parted so hard;
Me, rushing round Britain with a guitar,
Making love to people
That I didn't even like to see.
Well, I would think of you.
Yes, I mean in the six sad morning.
And in the lonely midnight,
Try to hold your face before me.
Well, I want you to know, I just had to go;
I want you to know, we just had to grow.
And you're probably married now, kids and all,
And you turned into a grownup, female, stranger.
And if I was lying near you now,
I'd just have to fall.
Well, I never slept with you
Though we must have made love a thousand times.
For we were just young, didn't have no place to go,
But in the wide hills and beside many a long water
You have gathered flowers, and they do not smell for me.
Well, I want you to know, I just had to go.
I want you to know, we just had to grow.
So it's goodbye first love, and I hope you're fine.
Well, I have a sweet woman
Maybe some day to have babies by me,
she's pretty,
Is a true friend of mine


Spirit Beautiful

เนื้อเพลง: Spirit Beautiful

Glow little spark glow brightly in the embers of dying fire
See the people come run to their windows
What manner of lightning this

Oh spirit, spirit beautiful
Oh spirit, spirit beautiful

Swim little bubble swim lightly, bubble on a silent pool
See the people come run to their windows
What manner of ocean this
Grow little seed grow brightly resting in a nest of earth
See the people come run to their windows
What manner of lightning this
