Having countryman John Cale label your first-ever commercial release “his favourite album ever” is about as good a start as a Welsh rock band could hope for. And after several subsequent, critically-acclaimed albums on the Ankst label, Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci caught the attention of a major label (Fontana) and released this 1997 psych-folk masterpiece. Two singles resulted, both charting: the gently rocking “Diamond Dew” and the twisted pop ditty “Patio Song,” but Barafundle is above all an album, taking you on a benevolently bent journey akin to the Small Faces’ Ogdens’ Nut Gone Flake (with a side trip of Incredible String Band), which is high praise indeed.

Remastered for vinyl by Mike Milchner at Sonic Vision, and pressed up 2000 copies in jungle swirl vinyl, housed inside a jacket with full-color printed inner sleeve. Put a log on the fire, brew up some mushroom tea, and bliss out.
