First ever reissue of this impossible to find private acid-folk album from France, released in 1972, related to Long Orme and originally released as a tiny pressing on cult Kiosque d'Orphée label (the French Deroy). Recorded by French musician Dominique Droin (later a Gipsy Kings backing musician) and some friends/musicians at a basement studio, the album has a charming homemade vibe and melancholic atmosphere with a strong UK folk influence (think Donovan, John Renbourn, Bert Jansch, or Nick Drake). Beautiful songs in English with acoustic guitars, flute, cello and even full electric backing on the monster eight-minute psychedelic title track. CD version includes bonus track: "The Capricorn and The Libra (2021 version)".
