Featured in the guidebook OBSCURE SOUND REVISED EDITION. This album was released in 1976 by Oliver Bloch-Laine, a French singer and songwriter who also recorded a duo album with Philippe Briche under the name Lenoeud. The album features Georges Rodi, a keyboardist known for his work with the Library. It is a wonderful showcase of mellow acid folk with a unique colourful psychedelic feel, introducing synthesizers and other electronics throughout. As the artwork evokes, you can see a caravan going through the desert in the twilight.

There are a couple of noticeable scratches, but they have little effect on the playback sound, except for a couple of slight click noises at the outro of B4.
