Mosaic by the Third Ear Band

[Rikk303]

the deafer I get, the less this shit means...I mean that in a caring way

[willHulbert]

The track is called "Mosaic" .

[lukethebelgian]

what is the name of this song,?

[immolation333]

Very good job, friend



[willHulbert]

@immolation333 Many thanks for your kind comments!

[Fredigundis22]

@immolation333 Absolutely - you've really caught the mood, the spirit, the ethos of this extraordinary music by one of the all-time great bands.

I just wonder who the two tin-eared/visually impaired/aesthetically challenged idiots (so far) are who DIDN'T like this!

[urckrecords]

good video, make one for ghetto raga next!

[MrBloomdido]

listen to flowers of romance by PIL where did lydon and co get the inspiration ???

[willHulbert]

Hmmnn!See what you mean, But surely not???

[philipsmovies]

Excellent stuff. Very weird but right up my street.

[alamo11]

come on will, cut out the edgar broughton stuff and give us some more of this

[willHulbert]

What?

[clivetemple]

Utter nonsense.

[coolredmudball]

clive - believe me , you had to have been there - then you might understand. And I'm not being condescending at all.

P + L

[clivetemple]

I'll give it another go. Before you know it I'll be grooving to The Incredible String Band. ;)

[alamo11]

back for another dose !!

[sambollet]

Saw them at the Roundhouse chalk farm road in the 60s also on Parliament hill as I lived next to them in Tufnell park, sounded the same live.

[demisemi88]

I've had Alchemy for a while. this is a particularly evocative track and i never found anythin else quite like TEB. anyone have any idea what the fourth sound is - perhaps very high notes on a stringed instrument?

[willHulbert]

I always thought it was Mel Davies on Slide pipes (Not quite sure what they are though).

[sabrinaeden]

Mel's slide pipes can be heard to the full on Dragon Lines - apparently they were made with old inner-tubes. The high sound is most likely Coff on a violin...

[vogelmandrie]

Werner Herzog used 'Ghetto Raga' for his Fata Morgana movie, perfect match images - music

[willHulbert]

I did'nt know which piece he used for Fata morgana,Never having seen it,But I just knew it had to be Ghetto Raga,As you say the perfect match!

[vintagekitsch]

Yes, they always started the concerts and it always seemed to be sunny so you could lay down on the grass and let the sound wash all over you - bliss ......

[willHulbert]

Glad this has brought back fond memories!Wish I could have been there.Have posted another T.E.B.video hope you like it.

[vintagekitsch]

Yay! The Third Ear Band. Watched/listened to them in Hyde Park in the sun in the sixties - bliss! They were amazing.

~(:o})=

[bigboxbobby2]

They always started those free concerts didnt they? I dont think they were filmed though.

[willHulbert]

You never know what will turn up on "Youtube"!

[FullersRd]

I saw the band at a gig at Loughton College in about 1969. Changed so many ideas I had about music. I think I could get a flash back just listening to this!

[roroguitar]

...the music are excelent¡¡ It's like Univers Zero.

[terminater1952]

Saw this band back in the late 60s,it was i belive what tripping out was all about,just magic,thankyou.

[wigmiester]

1st time ever hearing this band... certainly wont be the last !!!!

[willHulbert]

How did you discover this?

[wigmiester]

Looking up world fusion music i saw the name on wikipedia. I thought the name sounded interesting so i looked it up here....

Have u any more u could post ???

[willHulbert]

Am in the process of doing another vid!Meanwhile you could check out Paukuttaja site,Has a fragment of "Fire" off second

Album.(It,s the one that starts with"P"and has

about 10 a's in the title!)

[fosterch]

I found them in the credits for Polanski's MacBeth. They do the music for the movie.

[glfgecko]

Can anyone tell me which song (and album) is used by Werner Herzog in his 'Fata Morgana' movie, you can check here on youtube, thxs

[paukuttaja]

Ei kovin kaksinen kuvitus, mutta ainut ja paras.

[willHulbert]

Just wish I knew what that meant?

[paukuttaja]

Only and therefore the best TEB-video available :-)

.

Wrote a fan since summer -72

.

P.S

Check also "Pääsiääsvalakialla" on my videos.

[willHulbert]

Excellent! Also a fan from summer of 72.

[incongra]

I've got all their vinyl up my loft. But the mind can play strange tricks because I could have sworn this track was on "Macbeth"... is there a very similar track on the Macbeth album? Nice video btw

[willHulbert]

Thanks for the comment!This is track 1 side 1 off of "Alchemy" Macbeth has a similar bleak sound only with Simon House VCS3 and Denny Bridges guitar,Best get up in that loft and check it out!!

[incongra]

And lets not forget that the song "Fleance" on Macbeth was - bizarrely enough- sung by none other than Keith Chegwin....it's quite obviously Cheggers when you watch the movie. I still listen to "air, earth Fire & water" which I have on CD.

[kezmo52]

Played thier first albnum incessantly when I was young. It stuck.

[3977wampy]

one of my fav bands, wish I could have seen them live. This track is my favourite and so too is the album. Nice work.

[brightonmod]

ps now all i seem to do now is slave for money went wrong somewhere didnt it!!!)*(didnt i ))

[DannyDesperate]

There are many of us wondering what the f**k we have mutated into from this much simpler (if naive) time; so don't be hard on yourself. The fact TEB could actually exist (and be broadcast) alongside Zep and the rest says it all really. Impossible to explain to kids now, not that I particularly want to try. Gonna play it again, then dig out the vinyl...

[willHulbert]

Hi Danny! TEB Only exists if we make it exist.

I might be naive ,But I believe that unless we promote it, Third ear music might just be a distant memory to us and something the younger generation never get to hear.

[DannyDesperate]

I think many musicians have absorbed TEB and continue to develop the mosaic. I bought Hymn To The Sphynx, which I assumed was a new TEB CD, a few years ago and banged it on. Suddenly the synths stopped, Paul Minns' oboe chilled the room and my life froze over as Abelard and Heloise began. I had never heard of the suite (recorded '70) before. That sublime, disjointed and truly unexpected moment brought back the impact TEB had thirty odd years previous. Unreal and timeless.

[willHulbert]

Felt the same way when I first discovered "A&H" Paul Minns is superb on that C.D.Just got Third Ear band as "National Balkans Assm"On e-bay!(Just need to purchase a deck to play it on!)

[brightonmod]

i bought this album after seeng them at hyde park with edgar broughton band also reminds me i took alot of psycotropic substances in those days memories of lying in a trance in my bedroom in perivale!!!1969 ha ha happy daze!!! lol

[davidreedmedia]

[willHulbert]

Glad you liked it!Are you a fan of the TEB?

[psaavedrat]
