carol of harvest (+ 20 pages booklet)

The holy grail of German psych-folk. The original album is not only very rare but also offers some really good songs.

Carol of Harvest were founded in the Middle-Franconian town of Fürth in 1976 and played folk with psychedelic touch. Their only LP was released in the summer of 1978 as a very small edition of only 200 copies, on the sought-after Brutkasten label. Label owner Peter Klimek regards the LP as the best record released on his label. It is reminiscent of the early 1970s rather than 1978. The LP is in such great demand that it is meanwhile traded at € 2,000 – 3,000 in mint condition. There are now several new editions of the album, as LP and as CD, about half of them illegal. The LP on Garden of Delights comes with a 20-page booklet in LP size, with many as yet unreleased photographs, full-page poster repros, long band history etc. It is limited to 1000 numbered copies.
