As a follow-up to Munster's previous work reissuing the recordings of Pau Riba, a key figure in Catalonia's counter-culture and music scene, the label now presents Juguetes De Época Y Cajas De Cerillas -- Singles y Rarezas: Primera Epoca (1967-1969). This collection brings together songs taken from rare releases in his discography -- such as the album recorded at one of the concerts performed by Grup de Folk during its brief existence, Folk 2 (1968) -- as well as from his singles: "Taxista!" (1967), "Noia de porcellana" (1969), "Miniatura" (1969), "L'home estàtic" (1967), "Pau i Jordi" (1968), and "El Nadal no té 20 anys" (1967). Alongside these tracks, this compilation also releases for the first time part of the previously unheard material found on magnetic tapes discovered in the artist's studio after his passing. Among these tapes were the instrumental recordings of "Taxista!" -- versions with slight differences from those issued on the original single, possibly prepared for television playbacks. These recordings provide further insight into the making of Riba's first release, particularly regarding the mixing process and the later addition of subtle details. The album also includes an extensive booklet featuring detailed liner notes and photographs of the artist.
