EREACD 1006
Third album from this Swiss psychedelic/space rock outfit led by multi-instrumentalist Joel Vandroogenbroeck. the band went through a different incarnation on each album. Vandroogenbroeck was augmented by his girlfriend Carol Muriel and drummer Barney Palm. Celestial Ocean is a totally tripped out affair dealing with the Egyptian Book Of The Dead. A variety of instruments are used: multi-keys, flute, guitar, zither, and hand percussion. If you are a fan of the Cosmic Jokers series, Yatha Sidhra, and maybe even early Hawkwind you should check this album out as its one of the best in the genre. Until this release there was never a decent sounding version of this album available on CD. I suspect the master tapes were lost and that Esoteric worked from clean vinyl. Regardless it sounds fine and much better than the Cleopatra version.
