The Incredible String Band: the whole story - Album-by-album critiques - Solo work - Their legacy and influence on 21st century bands - Comus - Mark Fry - Principal Edwards Magic Theatre - Spirogyra - Forest - Dr Strangely Strange - The Wicker Man - Medieval folk-rock of the 70s - Third Ear Band - Circulus and more. Witches Hats & Painted Chariots covers a broad spectrum of British underground folk-rock from a lengthy selection of articles on acid-folk pioneers The Incredible String Band to the acts that followed in their footsteps. Folk and psychedelia held hands around the maypole while drug-inspired lyricism collided with traditional music, pagan mythology and spiritualism to create a sound and lifestyle that still resonate today. This delightfully-designed book overflows with sumptuous visuals and exclusive features no one has presented the work and influence of the String Band with such vivid colour and insight.

Recensione:
Witches Hats & Painted Chariots is also a compendium this time from the Shindig! editors, Jon Mills and Andy Morten. Essentially a special edition of the magazine, a one-off for the post-Green Man generation, beautifully designed, with an abundance of suitably curly fonts, marbling and art nouveau borders. New interviews with the main players (Robin Williamson, Mike Heron, Clive Palmer) appear alongside articles about both the String Band and various acid-folk names, including Dr Strangely Strange, Forest, Comus, Dando Shaft, Heron (and yes, The Wicker Man). If the likes of Anne Briggs and Shirley Collins find themselves perplexed at the acid tag, well, that's retrospective reassignment for you. For newcomers to the ISB and the whole malarky, this is properly good. It's a pretty great addition to the collections of long-term fans too, while hopeless obsessives will enjoy basking in the warm glow of pathetically smug satisfaction that comes from mentally ticking-off all the records in the Top 20 essential 'acid-folk', list. Anyone fancy watching The Wicker Man director's cut DVD and listening to Hangman's? --fRoots Magazine

Outerspace, innerspace and urbanspace - all these areas have been explored by space-rock, a nebulous term covering musique concrete, blanga , post-punk, and other sub-genres where the distortion is turned up and the electronics are set to stun. In this chunky, colourful A4-format dossier, Captain Matthews and the Shindig! crew chart the multi-armed nebula that spirals out from the Big Bang that fused avant-garde art music, the space race, sci-fi and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. The guiding stars along the journey are Delia Derbyshire and Hawkwind, both the subject of informative articles in their own right, and constantly popping up with reference to contemporaries and later visionaries. From pioneers like Pink Floyd, Amon Duul ll and Gong, through off-shoots and followers Tim Blake, Ozric Tentacles and Omnia Opera, to current contenders Sendelica and Vibravoid, the gang s all here.Well, nearly all here: Here & Now and Grobschnitt are notable by their absence, but we re always going to disagree on some of the details. All in all, though, this is one of the best overviews of the genre to date, and I d love to see Matthews, who clearly has both knowledge and enthusiasm, go on to produce a weighty book on the subject. --R2 Magazine
