LP版を漸く入荷、NWWリスト!!謎多きフランスのレーベルF.L.V.M.から78年に出ていたHeratiusの伝説的カルト盤[Gwendolyne]が初LP再発!!Pascal Comeladeとも共演していたArmand Mirallesが率いたトリオプロジェクトで、今回の再発にあたり未発表音源だった[Les Boniments]も初LP化。常にフラフラとして一向に定まらない、この不安定な感じが面白過ぎる大大大推薦タイトル。
A hidden gem from the notorious Nurse With Wound list ! Limited to 500 copies, this double LP features Heratius' studio album Les Boniments (1979) - never before released on vinyl - and the first ever vinyl reissue of Gwendolyne (1978).
Heratius could be described as a mix of Etron Fou Leloublan and Faust (in acoustic mode that is), with hints of Albert Marcoeur, Red Noise, in a music that is full of invention with typically French eccentric touches.
The Heratius album Gwendolyne was also much touted by Chris Cutler (of Henry Cow fame) at the time as the French Faust.
