Scots multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, storyteller and latter day Celtic bard Robin Williamson may have shot to prominence as the co-founder of The Incredible String Band but a glance at the extensive discography below indicates a prolific career after the ISB split in 1974. That should come as no surprise, given the fact that the String Band managed thirteen albums between 1966 and 1974 and the post-String Band era featured collaborations with The Merry Band and John Renbourn and a series of albums for ECM combining his own lyrics with words by the likes of Dylan Thomas, William Blake, and Walt Whitman.
The following listing, grabbed from Wikipedia, will probably end up largely unexplored (availability will probably be the key issue in that regard) but serves as a reminder of the depth and breadth of a singularly idiosyncratic individual’s musical and mythological meanderings.
