Myrrh is a folk album and the solo debut of Robin Williamson, released in 1972. Robin Williamson is noted as being a founding member of The Incredible String Band. Myrrh was subjected to a low budget and placed on the Island label's lowest sub-label, Help. The album was downgraded by poor-quality sound mixing and a single-sleeve cover design. As 1971 came to a close, it was evident that The Incredible String Band was drifting into d rock.

Bobby Williamson: Thanks so much for having me. Petrucci was number 9 on the Top 10 Fastest Shredders of All Time write-up in Guitar One Magazine. Rusty was listed as Number 7. I believe somehow Mark Tremonti got ahold of one or more of Rusty’s guitar instructional DVD’s and he loved Rusty’s guitar playing, and got in touch with Rusty through a mutual acquaintance. If so, what’s in your CD player at this moment? Bobby: Lately the band as a whole has been into Lamb of God, Nevermore, All That Remains, and Arch Enemy. MER: Any last words for your fans? Bobby: Yes! I am a fan of Metal too, so thank you so much for reading the interview and being interested in Outworld. Can’t wait to see you all on a tour somewhere! MER: Bobby, thanks for taking some time out for Metal Express Radio and your fans!

Venue Great American Music Hall (San Francisco, CA). Date Nov 22, 1976.
