Hullo dere. Today's "Tape Hiss" features the great French seventies band Heratius -- whose one LP, "Gwendolyne Blues" (1978), is dedicated to Faust and the Residents ... which gives you some slight idea of where they were coming from. They consisted of Armand Miralles (aka "Armand Mirales"; vocals, guitar), Robert Diaz (saxophones, clarinets, piano, organ), Florence Leroy (piano, organ, percussion), and Kristof Temple (bass, electric guitar). We will hear their unreleased 2nd LP, two private tapes, and a super rare single. See you at noon!

Heratius's one released LP, "Gwendolyne Blues," has sadly never been reissued, but can be found on Mutant Sounds: mutant-sounds.blogspot.com...

See the band lineup included in my first comment, though some members -- perhaps Robert Diaz -- are probably missing on this recording. (There's no info at all on this test press.)
  12:25pm
Lord GB of GB (A Mancunian Odyssey):

Any reason why this amazing album was not released?
  12:26pm
northguineahills:

Yes, this is nice...

@ Lord GB: Don't know -- probably just the band breaking up and lack of money. If I ever start a label, I will try to release it myself!

Seriously recommend Ultimate Thule's Cosmic Egg label of unreleased or rare krautrock releases
1. Out Of Focus - Not Too Late (UTCE 001) 41'05"
2. Günter Schickert & GAM - Eiszeit (UTCE 002) 42'36"
3. Kontrast (ex Out Of Focus) - Kontrast Vol. 1&2 (UTCE 003) CD

Thanks, Lord GB! I've got the first two, which are indeed quite fab.
Avatar 12:46pm
tonyc:

I could be wrong about the personnel being reduced on this test press, but what's definitely missing is Robert Diaz's clarinet and sax, which is a big part of Heratius's sound on their other recordings -- as you'll hear on the cassettes coming up next.

I'm guessing the track order as given on the cassette insert doesn't correspond to the tape -- this is probably really the second-listed track -- but I'm just giving you what's written, wrong or not.

Tony, ever heard Magma's BBC Londres album -1974 recordings at the BBC?

Seem a bit strange to me - as though the band were just messing about?
Avatar 1:39pm
tonyc:

Might have. I've heard a BBC recording from '74 (I think, don't have it at hand) that I quite like. It prominently features Brian Godding (of Blossom Toes!) on guitar. Not sure if that's the one you mean.

Doug S.:

Hey Ricardo, 'twas a fine show last week!

Tony, today's program is wonderful. Completely atypical for you. All your other shows are merely extraordinary.
  1:44pm
Ricardo Montalban:

Thank you Doug! Was mucho fun. Listener comments made it fun, too.
while still nice, most listener feedback I get while doing my KBOO show is by phone, often by drunk and/or crazy people.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Ricardo Montalban:

Wow! This is amazing stuff, Tony! Too cool! Love the loopy guitar bits.

While we're passing out thanks, let me thank Eurock's Archie Patterson again for selling and loaning me the super rare material heard today. He kept it hermetically sealed in a vault until I arrived in Portland.

Archie's awesome and his hermitically sealed vault is legendary. I hear the guards train their entire lifetime to stand at complete attention, even when tourists hassle them.
Avatar 1:58pm
tonyc:

Coming up after this tape: a mega rare single featuring Armand Miralles of Heratius in a duo with Pascal Comelade. It's an edition of 3 and one of the Heratius things Archie wouldn't sell me -- but he did let me borrow it!

I arrived too late to hear the test press Enchantillion. Is there any hope of hearing it elsewhere?

Hi, Kay! Sadly, no, unfortunately.

Next week's show, by the way, will be a regular freeform show. Have built up lots of stuff to play for you, including German porno.

By the way, some of the tracks heard today are alternate versions of tracks on the "Gwendolyne Blues" LP.

@ Lord GB of GB: Regarding post-1981 Heratius-related material: There's just one EP, by Armand Miralles and M.K.B. (probably a split release, not a duo). That's it, as far as I know.
