***The Incredible String Band reformed in 2000 around the original 1966-74 nucleus of Mike Heron, Robin Williamson and Clive Palmer. Cardiff-based keyboards- player Lawson Dando and Williamson's wife Bina completed a line-up that toured the UK between 2000 and 2002. Heron and Palmer kept the band going following the departure of the Williamsons and brought in female multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Fluff, and later bassist Gavin Dickie. Their 2003 tour exhumed classics from the first six ISB albums, generally acknowledged to be the band's artistic high water mark. Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios in rural Wiltshire was the site of this live-in-the-studio album, recorded in front of an invited audience. So great was the demand at the October 2003 gig that the sessions were extended into a second day. The band was joined by Icelandic percussion wizard Steini Gudmundsson, who'd offered his services at their Reyjkavic concert earlier in the year. Tour dates: 9/23 Northampton, MA
