String Driven Thing - album The machine that cried 1973 (1996)

With "The machine that cried" their third studio album that was released in 1973, String Driven Thing reached their pick. The metamorphosis from British folk-rock band to prog-folk-rock band has ended. "The machine that cried" is one of the best example of prog-folk-rock of the year 1973. The 1996 version brings the restored tracks in their full length, including "River of sleep" which regains its full 11 minutes. After the album the band broke up, although the name carried on in a new line up.
