1971 studio album by Incredible String Band
Liquid Acrobat as Regards the Air album by the Incredible String Band . It features Mike Heron , Robin Williamson , Licorice McKechnie and Malcolm Le Maistre . The album was the band's first almost entirely electric recording; a new feature that was to define the change in the band's sound throughout their final period through 1974.[1]
This was also the first album without Rose Simpson who was going to become a sound engineer, but started a family instead. Gerry Conway , a drummer of Fairport Convention appears on the album.[2]
The most ambitious track is also its lengthiest. "Darling Belle", the track Williamson said "came to me in a dream", is composed of three-way vocals and spoken-word. Heron would vocalise and McKechnie would mimic his words with her high-pitch vocals. It tells the story of a woman from childhood to old age.[3] [unreliable source? "Tree" is a remake of the song "The Tree" from the band's first album .
