Guerssen Records reissues this mega-rarity from the '70s folk-psych French underground scene for the very first time. Featured on Hans Pokora's book with a four star rating, Dandelion's first album was first released in 1979 as a tiny private pressing of only 300 copies. It has a charming, amateurish/homemade vibe with some outstanding tracks like "Winter Tale" (featuring sound effects, reverberating guitars and lost vocals which bring to mind other lost bands like Tony, Caro & John or Agincourt), the acoustic "La Farfalla," with its nice femme vocals, and the atmospheric, organ-dominated "Sometimes," which opens the album in an impressive way. This reissue, done with help from guitarist/composer Jean Christophe Graf, features an insert with liner notes and rare pictures. Vinyl includes original picture sleeve design; CD with slimcase outer-carton cover. Remastered sound.
