STRING DRIVEN THING from Glasgow were one of the most innovative progressive/folk rock bands of their time. Their selftitled album and "The Machine That Cried", released in 1972 resp.1973 were milestones of this era. The NEW YORK TIMES named "Circus" the single of the year (1973). Both albums are still available - now on CD. For a full catalogue send a mail to: spmorder@aol.com

  • @t5775jh KADI "The Monster", Peaches, simpler times, slower days, and it seems about a hundred years ago.

  • KADI-96, KSLQ,-98, and the mighty K-SHE all played this gem as I tried to find it on 8 track at Camelot music and Peaches in 1977. St. Louis...

  • A true K-SHE classic

  • a nice song and a nice band, even if I have always thought of them like a bit more aggressive version of Spirogyra

  • Fucking Genius!!!!!

  • Another great K-SHE classic from back in the day. Don Kirschner would be proud..

  • This line up of SDT was the first band I ever saw live and I'll never forget the experience , I wasn't to know it then but I thought all live acts would be that good. Unfortunately not so. That night they supported Gentle Giant at the Kings Hall Derby and as this was March 1974 and therefore very close do their break up I realise just how fortunate I was to see them. Its a fantastic reminder to see this video. It goes witout saying I have their albums.

  • Excellent

  • saw SDT on the same tour as Windrush50 and totally agree. They embarrassed Genesis who were the top of the bill iirc. As well as just about every other band that tried to use the violin as a lead rock instrument (Its a Beautiful Day, Curved Air)
