Third Ear Band - Magic Music CD (Mega Blowout Sale)
SKU
23-BP 257
The Third Ear Band were a late 60's/mid 70's quartet who were fixtures at ALL the festivals & who used hand drums, oboe, violin/viola & cello to make a dark, pagan & medieval-influenced, acoustic music. The only thing that comes close to their sound is some small bits of the early Univers Zero records. They made several albums for Harvest and eventually fell apart.
Due to interest/nostalgia/whatever, the group reformed in the mid/late 80s featuring original band leader Glen Sweeney (drums/percussion) and other collaborators, both new and old. This one, which seems to be one of the very last from the reformed band, features Lyn Dobson (ex Soft Machine! saxes), Mick Carter (guitar) and Neil Black (violin).
While you would not guess that this was outtakes of their 1960s material, it still absolutely has THAT SOUND intact and fans will love this. Recommended!
