Sandrose - Underground Session,
from their self-titled debut,and
only, album, released in 1972.
Another excellent and rare release
from the immense Musea catalogue,
this time from France. Sandrose
were formed in 1971 by guitarist
Jean Pierre Alarcen, previously
with one or two other French
bands, some of which had really
cute names, such as "Systeme
Crapoutchik"(!). They originally
started out as a pop group but
gradually moved on into the
progressive field. The other
members of the band were Christian
Clairefond on bass, Michel Jullien
on drums and Henri Garella on
keyboards. Vocals were supplied by
the seriously talented Rose
Podwojny. They unfortunately
didn't last particularly long and
split in early 1973. A very good
album with some stunning
musicianship - our featured track,
is all of 11 minutes of
"instrumental progressive rock
heaven", complete with keyboard
and guitar parts that will leave
you in awe. A recommended album,
for sure.

Reviews of the bands albums will
feature here..
