The Incredible String Band - Be Glad For The Song Has No Ending (Island 1970) 24-bit/96kHz Vinyl Rip

Be Glad for the Song Has No Ending is the eighth album by the Incredible String Band, featuring Mike Heron, Robin Williamson, Licorice McKechnie and Rose Simpson. It is the soundtrack for the String Band's John Marshall-directed film of the same name. It is a strange little collection of the enigmatic and the light-hearted, ending with a long collage of instrumental tunes from the movie.

The film captures the intensity of The Incredible String Band in the late 60s. Live sequences show the band at the height of their powers, casting a spell on the audience with their unique blend of theatrical and musical metaphysics. Peppermint Store Blog.
