About this product
One of the better British progressive bands of the early '70s, The Strawbs differed from most groups principally in that their sound originated in English folk music, rather than rock. They are best known for their hit InchPart of the UnionInch, which reached number two in the UK Singles Chart in February 1973, as well as for InchLay DownInch, a popular progressive rock hit from the same LP. Strawbs toured with Supertramp in their InchCrime of the CenturyInch tour, doing their own InchHero and HeroineInch tour, which drew musical similarities and themes. In a review in Rolling Stone in 1974, Ken Barnes wrote InchStrawbs moved from folkier days to a rich, stately and mellotron-dominated sound, with similarities to Yes, King Crimson and the Moody Blues. They wrote more compelling songs than the former two, and possessed more lyrical/musical substance than the latter.Inch Album Tracks 1. The Last Resort 2. Ghosts 3. No Return 4. Heartbreaker 5.
