Product Description

Album Description
The first ECM album by the founder of the Incredible String Band. 'The Seed-At-Zero' sets poetry by Dylan Thomas to music, examines Thomas's relationship to the "Bardic tradition" of visionary Welsh poets including Henry Vaughan, Llywarch Hen and Taliesen and, in revisiting some of Robin Williamson's strongest songs from a distinguished 40 year career, fixes the Scottish singer/songwriter's work firmly within that tradition. The writers featured are outstanding exponents of what Williamson likes to call "wrought language", taking almost a sculptural approach to the written and the spoken word.

Recorded 2000

Personnel:
Robin Williamson - (vocals, guitar, harp, mandolin)

5.0 out of 5 stars The Master Matures, 16 Mar 2001
By A Customer
If you would prefer to hear Robin playing crazy String Band tunes then this album probably isn't for you. If however you are interesting in hearing what someone who was a genius at the age of 20 does when he is 50 then this is VERY interesting. Putting music to the words of Dylan Thomas and other great poets would be daunting enough for most, but to line them up against your own poetry is a testament to just how good Robin is. All the tunes are uniquely Williamson and his voice, whilst definitley showing the signs of age has merely altered, not diminished in its power, strength or variety and he remains an incredible performer. A highlight for me is his puely spoken rendition of Can Y Gwnt, the man has the greatest story-telling voice of all time. Unriddle me this, if you can....
