Wicca Way Third Ear Band were formed in 1969, managed by Blackhill Enterprises (Pink Floyd, Roy Harper, Kevin Ayers), they soon secured a deal with EMI's " underground" label Harvest . They were a regular feature of the free Hyde Park gigs in the late 60's /early 70 's, sharing the bill with their label mates.
Their hypnotic pop chamber music was the perfect soundtrack to Roman Polanski's Macbeth, which was released in 1972.
The album was recorded in Air Studios, where the band working closely with Polanski improvised whilst viewing clips of the film.
It was nominated for best film music at the BAFTA awards, losing out to The Godfather.
Critic Debora Thomas said ::::"the score painstakingly created for Macbeth stands on it's own , a baleful but strangely beautiful interweaving of modern and medieval music ".
