The Incredible String Band - El Wool Suite, Time, Queen Of Love, Partial Belated Overture, Walking Along With You and Hirem Pawnitof/Fairies’ Hornpipe

From side one of the seventh album by the British (Formed in Edinburgh, Scotland) Psychedelic folk/Folk rock group, “U” (1970).

A double album, the music was part of a multimedia project the band undertook algonside the dance troupe Stone Monkey (including Malcolm le Maistre, who became a member if ISB soon after). (Quoting Wikipedia directly in the next two sentences) The project was described my ISB co-founder Robin Williamson as a “surreal parable in song and dance”, one that was “neither a pageant, a play, dance, theater, nor pantomime, though there were elements of all of those” in the show. For the plot, Williamson explained “the vague notion was, a soul incarnates out of nowhere, lives, and then vanishes again at the other end. Hence the idea ‘U’”. Very hippy-dippy UK Underground-type stuff, but rich in different musical styles and instrumentation.

I’ll follow up with side two later on.

Paul McCartney - The World Tonight, If You Wanna, Somedays, Calico Skies, Flaming Pie, Heaven On A Sunday and Really Love You.

From the English (From Liverpool) singer/songwriter/musician/ex-Beatle’s tenth solo album, “Flaming Pie” (1997).
Coming off the heels of The Beatles’ Anthology project, this amazing album was released with an exciting cast of characters, both family and friends of Paul. These include his late wife Linda McCartney on backing vocals, his son James on guitar, his Beatles bandmate Ringo Starr on drums, ELO’s Jeff Lynne on guitar and keyboards, George Martin on orchestral arrangements and a collaboration with Steve Miller (of the titular Steve Miller Band) on the song “Used To Be Bad”. This album is also the last to feature the aforementioned Linda, who passed away from breast cancer a year after the album’s release. Elsewhere on the album, Paul
dedicated the song “Little Willow” to Ringo’s ex-wife Maureen, who passed away in 1994.

Fun fact (Taken from Wikipedia): The title Flaming Pie (also given to one of the album’s songs) is a reference to an anecdote that John Lennon told in a humorous story published in magazine Mersey Beat in 1961 about the origin of the Beatles’ name: “It came in a vision – a man appeared on a flaming pie and said unto them, ‘from this day on you are Beatles with an A.’”
