The world became the world, may you rest.

I was in lodgings in Bromley when I bought "Grave New World", the first of many Strawbs albums. Cousin's voice is just so distinctive and the whole album just felt so 'complete' in terms of the song choice and quality.

May you rest ...

I must ask for forgiveness. I learned to play drums to this album along with a couple others: Led Zeppelin 4; Dark Side of the Moon; Aqualung, and Electric Lady Land- 1983...(in particular). This was the one song that influenced my technique and my improvisational skills(due to the musical complexity of this album and this song in particular), more than all the other drummers I inferred in the above list. I can only see this looking back on 35 years as a drummer. Eye opening. Thanks.

One of the great anti-war songs from, arguably, their best album.

One of the most powerful provocative songs ever written....I was NI at this time.

I remember buying the LP and watching the film. I also later walked the streets of NI some of the footage depicts.

Thanks for posting this, it brings back interesting memories.
