MELLOW CANDLE - SWADDLING SONGS PLUS (RISE ABOVE RELICS)
Official reissue of this fantastic album, widely considered the pinnacle of the 'acid folk' explosion of the late 60s/early 70s, the original one of the great holy grails for psych/folk collectors. This reissue collects the original 1972 album, remastered, alongside a bonus lp of demos predating their debut (and only) album and reproductions of their two equally rare singles.
