Carpe Diem – Cueille Le Jour(1977 France Prog Rock)Full Album

Carpe Diem biography Founded in Nice, France in 1970 (Initially as "Deis Corpus") - Disbanded in 1979 - Reformed in 2014 This French group was founded on the Riviera (Nice more precisely) as had SHYLOCK also. They both managed to make two albums both on the Musea catalogue nowadays. However they do sound different, CARPE DIEM sounding more diversified and also holds some singing, as well as some wind instruments (flute & saxes). One can say that they had that typical French symphonic prog sound of the second part of the 70's much like PULSAR, ATOLL and a bit less in the ANGE and MONA LISA mould. Their two albums are highly regarded by progheads but do not ooze originality, always eyeing towards the British references. Still well worth the discovery, though. : : : Hugues Chantraine, BELGIUM : : Studio Album, released in 1976 Songs / Tracks Listing 1. Naissance 00:00 2. Le Miracle De La Saint-Gaston 03:34 3.
