“From the Witchwood” is the fourth album by the English band Strawbs. It was recorded at Air Studios in London during February and March 1971 and reached number 39 in the UK Albums Chart on 17 July 1971.
The album is the third and final album to include Rick Wakeman, including his appearance as a session musician on the 1970 album Dragonfly.
The sleeve illustration was “The Vision of St. Jerome”, a tapestry from the Spanish Royal Collection.
'Guitarists Ted Turner and Andy Powell both lay a claim to Blowin’ Free’s signature opening riff, albeit via a doff of the cap to Children Of The Future by the Steve Miller Band. “Musically it was influenced by Steve Miller.”
