Please PM me if you have the album PLEASE!!!!

just wait til you get the album, a month ago I felt the same way.  Now I don't understand how I could live and not have that album. I just ordered L'heptade for $35 and if its half as good I will feel like I got a bargain on it.

HARMONIUM ....

I have known them since the mid 70's. Their music is a mix between progressive and folk. Mostly recorded with acoustic instruments. Guitar, Piano, Bass, Flute, etc .....

Very melodic, very emotional .... and very easy to appreciate for all of its delicate subtleties. At times, they will remind you of a French version of Supertramp. In fact, Roger Hodgson has always stated that he loved the music of Harmonium.

Their first two CD's are usually priced under $10 here in Quebec, and are readily available everywhere. The third one (double album) is more expensive and not always easy to find. The band used an orchestra on their 3rd and final album.

Cinq saisons is not very expensive, i ordered it for 12.5 euro at NLstore (an online store in the Netherlands).

Histoire Sans Paroles is a fantastic song, the rest of the album is also very good.

I bought the second and third albums from www.amazon.ca and the total cost, including *surface* mail, to the UK was around GBP 25. I ordered on March 18 and Amazon Canada said to expect the two CDs at the end of May but they actually arrived on April 13.

Try this
http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/search-handle-form/
701-0514468-3740349

Please note, 10 bucks Canadian is only about 8 U.S.

Now that's cheap!

EDIT That link's not so good...go to amazon.ca and search for Harmonium
