The Incredible String Band - Ithkos and Rehearsal

[butterybiscuits67]

@makellys How did you get the Often Imitated DVD? I saw a little info on it online but don't know where to look for it

@butterybiscuits67 Do you know I'm not really sure. I've had it a few years and I know someone sent me a copy rather than me downloading it, but I'm not sure who sent it. I'd offer to burn you a copy but my dvd writer doesn't work on my computer.

I'm thinking you must own a copy of the rare video "I Looked On" which was only available through the "Be Glad" fanzine: I have number 16 of 50 and it is one of my most treasured posessions! I saw the band perform ITHKOS at Birmingham Town Hall and it was an amazing experience live, totally absorbing and Malcolm's finest moment. The bickering during rehearsal is so like the Beatles in Let it Be....

@bigted644 ah no I have the later Often Imitated Never Duplicated DVD, which i think was an updated version of it. There should probably be an updated version of that now with all the new footage that's surfaced. I'm still undecided on Ithkos myself - some good moments, and some, er, not so good moments.
