Curved Air was formed in 1970 and brought together influences from rock, folk, and classical music in their work, developing a fascinating progressive fusion sound. They became a founding band within the British progressive rock movement that has stood the test of time and continues to perform live to this day. For many, their enigmatic and captivating lead singer, Sonja Kristina, is regarded as the first lady of progressive rock. Box set of 6 CDs bringing together all the previously released CDs in the Curved Air Rarities series, which are now sold out. Housed in a rigid case, it is a must-have for any serious progressive rock collector. The box set includes a 48-page booklet with brand new notes from Jerry Ewing, editor of PROG Magazine, in which he interviews Sonja Kristina and offers a fresh new perspective on these recordings. “I’m there backstage, I’m listening, and I’m thinking what a good band, they’re great!” Sonja Kristina, 2015.
