Whoops -- you're so right, citizensmurf.
It's fixed now! Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

That's great you found a copy of TIBETAN BELLS out there.

Yeah, TIBETAN BELLS II is alright. But the co-joint venture with Mickey Hart, YAMANTAKA, is really something else. I used to do all-afternoon repeated listening to "The Revolving Mask Of Yamantaka" in the darkened, air conditioned office where I used to work. Kept my attention sharpened to a fine point for hours.

There is another Family link: "How-Hi-The-Li" (1969) may very well have borrowed the underlying rhythm and quietude of Spirit's "It Shall Be" (1968). This Spirit track may very well have also had a hand in influencing Hawkwind's “You’re Only Dreaming” (1971) as well as even Chicago's "Wishing You Were Here" (1974) and possibly even the soft eeriness of 10cc’s “I’m Not In Love” (1975). Which may or may not have influenced Gary Wright’s space odyssey, “Dream Weaver” (later on the same year, 1975) which fed into and influenced Steve Miller Band’s “Threshold” (1977).
