Hi all,

I am not really sure if you will be able to help me as this is somewhat of a record collectors' question, but here goes..

I recently found a copy of Pentacle's 'La Clef Des Songes' LP, and I was wondering if someone might be able to help me determine the year of its pressing.

The copy I found has a cover which states that it was manufactured in Canada by Warner Brothers. However, although the disc has the same serial number as what is on the cover (FLP91301), the labels state that the disc was made in France.

The only picture of this particular album which I could find on the web was of another Canadian pressing for sale on Ebay. However, that particular copy has a green label disc which states that it was manufactured in Canada on the record labels. My copy has a purple tie-die coloured label with French words along the bottom perimiter. It also states "MSI Distribution" to the right of the spindle hole.

I am assuming that my copy is likely a reissue or perhaps an import of some sort, but I would really like to find out when it was manufactured.

Thank you for your help.

Oh yeah, I forgot to add that the album cover states "Arcane" along the spine. Arcane was the label upon which the album was originally issued in France. Also, the disc has the French SACEM import code. Thanks.

I think it was 1975. VERY good album, produced by Christian Descamps of Ange but avoids Ange's histrionics
