Excellent mostly-instrumental combination of prog and psych served up byChampignons, a tight and experimental band from Québec. Released in 1972,'Premiere Capsule', resplendent in its trippy day-glo mushroom sleeve, is asuccession of seven guitar driven original compositions that manage to maintainany incredibly high standard from start to finish. All the tracks are superb,but several in particular stand out including the 11-minute experimental jam,'Le Chateau Hante' (The Haunted Castle) and two instrumental numbers, 'Folies DuMercredi' and 'Pop-Pino'. There is extremely good fuzz guitar throughout, aswell as some exceptional flute solos courtesy of flautist Emile Naud. Hugelyenjoyable and highly recommended
