Eden Rose — On The Way To Eden 1970 (France, Progressive Rock)


The only album by this French band. Due to disagreements with their producer, the group parted ways for a time, but by 1971 they played a key role in forming the band Sandrose, adding vocalist Rose Podwojny—a striking lady with beautiful, Gypsy-like eyes. In 1972, Sandrose released a self-titled album.A short-lived French trio, which became a quartet just a few months before the recordings of their only album with the addition of guitarist Jean-Pierre Alarcen.History says that ''On the way to Eden'' was much based on organ-led arrangements and Alarcen's presence somewhat led to arranging changes.Anyway the album is smooth and naughty instrumental Psych/Prog with piano, organ and electric guitar in evidence, containing also some jazzy flavors and even some romantic, organ-driven passages ala early APHRODITE'S CHILD.Tasty music with fine guitar soloing and really crafted organ washing by Henri Garella, balancing between calm material and quirky/solo-based ideas.Due to conflicts with their producer the band fell apart with Alarcen forming the amazing Sandrose with female singer Rose Podwojny and eventually inviting all three Eden Rose members to join them.apps79 May 01 2020
