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.

Quintet, Kimio Mizutani, Terry Brooks & Strange, Necronomicon, The Spoils of War, Electric Orange After Mirthrandir, Lift and Easter Island, we continue bringing you the cream of the crop from U.S. Prog Classics, with the reissue of ID’s 1977 album Where Are We Going. In this case, you can guess the music from the band’s name, a regression into the depths of the unconscious (Freud’s antecedent term for ID in the structure of the cunning invention called ‘psyche’) via an interminable sonic evocation. The highlights of the album are the 2 long parts of the homonymous track covering most of the 2 sides. Although the prog progression at the beginning of Where Are We G...
