商品描述

A wide-ranging collection of interviews, anecdotes, essays, and ephemera concerning one of the most enigmatic bands to emerge from the 1960s hippy scene.

"Encyclopaedic in scope, passionate in tone, this book is a minotaur's labyrinth of information about one of the most remarkable groups in 20th century music. Be glad, for everything you need to know is here." (Rob Young, The Wire)

First published in 2003 and long out of print, Be Glad For The Song Has No Ending: An Incredible String Band Compendium is the definitive book about the ISB. Containing a wealth of interviews, essays, and ephemera from the band's brief but tangled history, this new revised and expanded edition includes two new pieces by ISB member Rose Simpson on Witchseason Productions' idiosyncratic offices and on recording with the ISB in the Sound Techniques studio, as well as interviews with Neil Tennant of Pet Shop Boys, folk musician Alasdair Roberts, and Ossian Brown of Coil and Cyclobe.

Contributors include Rowan Williamson (former Archbishop of Canterbury), ISB manager and producer Joe Boyd, Andy Roberts, Billy Connolly, and Raymond Greenoaken.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一系列廣泛的訪談、軼事、隨筆和小品，關於從1960年代嬉皮士場景中出現的最神秘樂團之一。

這本書的範圍如同百科全書，語調充滿熱情，是關於20世紀音樂中最卓越團體之一的資訊迷宮。要感到高興，因為你需要知道的一切都在這裡。（Rob Young，《The Wire》）

首次出版於2003年，並已長期絕版的《Be Glad For The Song Has No Ending: An Incredible String Band Compendium》是關於ISB的權威書籍。這本新修訂和擴充版包含了大量的訪談、隨筆和樂團短暫但錯綜複雜歷史的小品，並新增了ISB成員Rose Simpson關於Witchseason Productions特立獨行的辦公室及在Sound Techniques錄音室與ISB錄音的兩篇文章，以及與Pet Shop Boys的Neil Tennant、民謠音樂家Alasdair Roberts和Coil及Cyclobe的Ossian Brown的訪談。

貢獻者包括Rowan Williamson（前坎特伯雷大主教）、ISB經理及製作人Joe Boyd、Andy Roberts、Billy Connolly和Raymond Greenoaken。
