Curved Air were a pioneering British Rock group formed in 1969 by:
The group evolved from the band ''Sisyphus'' {Link without Title} and was named by Monkman after the piece ''A Rainbow in Curved Air'' by contemporary Composer Terry Riley . The line-up experienced frequent changes:
Only Sonja Kristina continuously remained as member. Monkman, member of Academy Of St. Martin In The Fields , was later to play with John Williams in a group called Sky . The musicians developed from quite different artistic backgrounds, Classic , Folk , and Electronic sound, which resulted in a mixture of Progressive Rock , Folk Rock , and Fusion with classical elements. The band's groundbreaking 1970 debut , '' Airconditioning '', reached no. 8 in the UK Albums Chart , and was the second picture disc released - the first being by the band Saturnalia in the previous year. In 1976 the band recorded their last studio album and then eventually split . Intermittently since then, the group, particularly in its original line-up, has re-joined for periodic concerts, one of which in 1990 gave rise to another live album. DISCOGRAPHY Albums
