from the esoteric '60s was the Incredible String Band.
Basically the duo of Mike Heron and Robin Williamson, its
sound was comprised of haunting Celtic folk melodies
augmented by a variety of Middle Eastern and Asian
instruments. Heron was a member of several rock bands in
England in the early '60s, while Williamson and Clive
Palmer played as a bluegrass and Scottish folk duo. Heron
was asked to join as rhythm guitarist, and the trio named
itself the Incredible String Band. The band was spotted
at a club by Joe Boyd, who was opening a British wing of
Elektra Records. The trio gave Boyd a demo tape of mostly
American bluegrass standards with a few original songs,
which impressed him more than the standards. The
Incredible String Band, released in 1966, featured mostly
original numbers enthusiastically played in American and
Celtic folk styles. Following the album's release,
Williamson spent several months studying music in
Morocco, and Palmer left the group to travel to
Afghanistan. For the String Band's second album, The 5000
Spirits or the Layers of the Onion, exotic touches such
as the Middle Eastern oud, Indian sitars, and tambouras
began to permeate the group's sound. The band's lyrics
also became more whimsical; highlights include
Williamson's tale of insomnia "No Sleep Blues" and
Heron's amorous "Painting Box." The press raved about the
Incredible String Band, and their next album, The
Hangman's Beautiful Daughter, was the band's brief
flirtation with stardom. Although the music was less
commercial than its predecessor, the LP reached the Top
Ten in the British album charts and was also the group's
highest Billboard chart placing in America, reaching
number 161. The songs became less structured, as on the
opening, "Koeeoaddi There," which changed tempo
frequently as it cascaded joyously with sitars and jaw
harp. The album's centerpiece, "A Very Cellular Song,"
was a suite of short pieces sewn together with the folk
song "Bid You Goodnight." For Wee Tam and the Big Huge,
the Incredible String Band was augmented by Williamson
and Heron's girlfriends, Licorice McKechnie and Rose
Simpson. The group also began to electrically amplify its
instruments. This expanded lineup performed at the
Woodstock festival in 1969, but due to circumstances it
was not one of the band's most memorable performances.
The Incredibles' slot was originally to be Friday night
after Joan Baez; however, due to heavy rain, the band
opted not to perform. Folksinger Melanie took the
Incredibles' place and went down extremely well, writing
her big hit "Candles in the Rain" about that moment. The
Incredible String Band got a lukewarm reception the next
afternoon between Creedence Clearwater Revival and Canned
Heat. At the turn of the '70s, the Incredible String Band
began to lose some of their momentum. The album Changing
Horses was not as engaging as the band's previous
collections, and the group's eclecticism became a
liability rather than an asset. Bassist and pantomimist
Malcolm LeMaistre joined in 1971 for U, a well-received
stage show that did not translate as easily to record.
The band made the transition to electric rock & roll in
1972. In 1974, following the album Hard Rope & Silken
Twine, the Incredible String Band disbanded. Both
founding members had prolific solo careers; Heron's took
him in a rock direction, while Williamson explored his
Celtic roots. For several years the band was seen as a
dated anachronism. Recently, with the resurgence in
interest in the psychedelic '60s as well as world music,
the Incredible String Band's music has been rediscovered
by new audiences won over by its mystical charm.
