Day 0109 - The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter

The Incredible String Band "The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter" (1968)



With their hippy, vaguely folky, pastoral vibe and their inclusion of 'world music' instruments and compositional elements the Incredible String Band were a hit with many in the 60s (including assorted Beatles and Rolling Stones).
To me, it's a really good album.  The songs are 'just right': not too tightly composed, but not too loose and rambling. Some great vocal harmonies and great production that makes creative use of the stereo field.
