Long  awaiting  to find  its  due  place  in  the  pantheon  of  60s  and  70s  European progfolk, acid folk and psych folk gems that have been mushrooming over the recent years, Full Moon’s first release, Moon Fools, is finally brought back to life.  Originally released in 1976, as a limited private pressing of 500 copies that were mostly sold in gigs, Moon Fools is a never-ending journey to the East, a constant interplay between darkness   and   light,   in  quest  for   musical   illumination.   Foregrounded   by   an instrumental  dialogue between  Johannes  Luttik’s  (guitar)  unique  mannerism  and Lucas Amor’s (R.I.P) tantalizingly  weeping violin, a mesmerizing tapestry unravels from start to finish. Every second is like a chronotope that combines Johannes’ memoirs from his musical expeditions in India, with Lucas’ travels to the Middle-East. Driven by Norman Halsall’s slowly, yet seethingly climaxing tablas/bongos, the compositions alternate between utmost lyricism and free-floating jams.

Moon Fools is reissued by PQR-Disques plusqueréel, fully remastered, in a limited, collectors’ only vinyl edition of 200 copies, and includes exclusively a cd with the previously unreleased album Eternal Rhythm (recorded in 1976).

PQR-Disques plusqueréel is a record label from and for collectors, specializing in limited edition, added-value reissues and original releases from progressive rock, psychedelic and folk bands.

RIALZU biography

By
  RIALZU biography by Gilles Renne (Rialzu) and Alain Lebon (Soleil Zeuhl)   It was during the rebirth of the Corsican Independence movement that the only record of RIALZU appeared. RIALZU, a band whose musical adventure plunges me back into the far-away and almost ghostly universe of my youth.   RIALZU was created in the early 1970’s at the peak of an incredible musical effervescence : many bands, soon to become legends, were breaking musical taboos and adventuring onto virgin territories by mixing musical styles with incredible creativity and thus laying the new foundations of music yet to be. It was in this atmosphere that, as a teenager, I began teaching myself to play the guitar by trying to decipher the magical notes of my ‘guitar heroes’ from their albums. I met Christophe Mac Daniel, a young organist from Corsica, at a Jesuit boarding school in Avignon. Together we took our first musical steps by starting up a band (of ever-changing names) with two other...

1st VINYL REISSUE OF MIRTHRANDIR – FOR YOU THE OLD WOMEN

A much sought after artefact among savvy prog collectors, and not at all coincidentally, For You The Old Women sits comfortably among the top 10 most inventive and omni-dexterous US prog...
