Curved Air
Sept 29 1972
Size: 72cm x 50.5cm
Original print: 2-colour screen print.
NFS
Reproduction: 4-colour inkjet.
Paper: 190 gsm semi-gloss.
Unframed £45.00
Edition: 10
Curved Air featured vocalist Sonja Kristina, violinist Darryl Way and keyboardist/guitarist Francis Monkman, later of Sky. They were reportedly much influenced in the early days by Spirit, who played the Poly in 1973. Their fusion of classical, pop and progressive rock influences helped build a live following, and the launch of their debut album as one of the first picture discs gave them a Top 10 chart position. This was followed by a UK Top 5 hit with Back Street Luv, although those marked the band’s pinnacle.
They carried on till 1976, including in the lineup future Police drummer Stewart Copeland, but never regained the momentum of the early days, despite reforming in 1984 and again from 1990.
Bristol-based Beatlesque Stackridge were already popular enough in Leeds to merit co-billing on this event and went to headline their own Poly shows in December 1972 and November 1974.
Unframed reproduction £45 plus £6 PP
