John Michael Green - Still the Innocent (Rare 1980 Canadian Private Psych Folk LP)

 

Solid, obscure canadian album, not too sure if John Michael Green released any other material.
A beautiful album, with psychedelic touches and interplay between John and the enchanting voice of Kim Buller, some dark moments mixed with pop and folkrock.
Some tracks are plain folk with vocals and guitar, others are psychedelic folk rock with fuzz guitars and additional female vocals, and to top it off, some timeless, deep lyrics. (review taken from discogs)

Jean Tensi - Chansons mal à l'aise (Ultra rare French Private Folk/French chanson LP from the 70's)

 


Rare French chanson/Folk LP from the seventies.
Atypical singer-songwriter because he is also an engineer and researcher in aerodynamics.
Close to the singer Morice Benin, who collaborated on this record.
Double gatefold sleeve, opening to reveal two additional panels of lyrics and drawings.
An essential work in this musical as well as pictorial field.

Austin Durack began writing and performing with acoustic guitar around 1970.
He won a prize in The American Song Contest in 1974 and made his first of seven national TV appearances with the group Jabberwocky in 1976.

His first album of songs and dulcimer tunes, 'The Soldier', came out in 1981.
