Description

Synphonic rock at its best, with mellotron, lots of keyboards and good female singer. The original LP has a collectors’ price of US$ 300 now. Excellent recording, from the master tapes. Repressing with 20 page booklet.

This record has become a classic. Released 1977 in an edition of 500 vinyl copies and quoted now for about US$500, it is the most wanted opus of German synphonic rock. The attentive and expensive recordings meet nowadays high demands and were processed from the original master tape to CD. The first two tracks are with vocals, the rest are instrumentals. Until today the recordings for a second Epidaurus album are unreleased, but will soon be rerecorded with the original band line up and released on CD.
