Synopsis
The Incredible String Band pioneered eclectic "world music" on sixties albums such as "The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter", taking in enthusiastic experiments with theatre, film and lifestyles along the way. The ISB remain one of the most revered '70s folk-rock bands - "an inspiration" for Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant, admired by artists as diverse as KLF, the Delgados and the Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant. Writers from "Be Glad" magazine present the fruits of a decade of research. The book features interviews with Mike Heron, Robin Williamson and all the ISB key players, as well as a wealth of background information, reminiscence, critical evaluations and arcane trivia.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
