"Actually a North American group based in Iceland, Geysir released this, their only album, in 1974 and it was released in Iceland only on the Hljómplötur label. It is regarded as a masterpiece of psychedelic progressive folk-rock and a very sought-after item in its original format. Nothing is known about the band other than being Americans... definitely an album to own!"

"Phil Trainer was an American folk-rock singer-songwriter. He released his first album when in the UK, with backing by members of UK folk group, Trees. It was originally released in 1972 and it is rated as a world classic of the genre by many. Some good fiddle, piano, electric guitar... now finally on CD, and has a booklet with lyrics."

"First time ever reissue of the hard-to-find sole album by U.S. duo, Drnwyn. Wonderful record that has some very cool psychedelic moments (especially the track 'The Madman and the Angel'), and a good number of fabulous folk rock midtempos. There are drums, bass and lots of acoustic guitars in here, but also electric leads, keys, mandolin and multi-part vocals with some female chorus as well. But most important, very well-crafted songs from start to finish. This was a private release back in 1978, and a very recommended album for those into folk-psych and folk-rock."

"Rare and unknown album by this French artist, only released in Denmark. A must for anyone interested in progressive folk, the quality of the songs on this album nearly reaches perfection. There's no drums on it, only some percussion, bongos, acoustic and electric guitars, flutes, bass... sung in French, and with some Eastern influences... a real killer of an album, released in 1981 with a real mid '70s sound, no hype!"

"As the title says, this album really rocks! Absolutely incredible Chilean group who recorded this amazing album in 1968, though it wasn't released until 1973. The finest and purest garagey psychedelia you could have ever imagined, this record has it all. Opening 10 min track 'Vuelve a Comenzar' has wild, pounding drums, great aggressive guitar riffs plus weird and demented vocals. What a killer track! Rest of the album follows this track quite closer, including unbelievable cover versions of Box Top's 'The Letter' or Ray Charles' 'What I'd Say' which are so wild that you'll hardly recognise them. We're not talking about lo-fi mid-'60s garage sound, this is top-level, perfectly produced garagey psychedelia. Definitely one of the best South American albums from the psych era. Two tracks sung in Spanish, rest in English. First time on CD."

"Krzysztof Klenczon was one of the most important musicians in the Polish '60s & '70s rock scene. He was a member of the well-known psychedelic '60s group Czerwone Gitary indeed, and after the group disbanded he soon released some solo albums. This is by far his best, and it's a total masterpiece of Eastern Europe's rock scene. Originally released in 1971, it features up to 15 hard-psychedelic-rock tracks plenty of terrific wild fuzz guitars."

"Steve Prentice & Stephen Tuttle, two young Americans based in Boston, recorded their second and rare album in 1972. This collectable record is a fragile psych folk record with strong rural Americana feeling. All twelve tracks are originals and really deserve this CD treatment."
