Loved this one since the day I first heard it, but recently developed a real sympathy towards their first one as well. Its charms kinda eluded me when I heard it on that 2CD reissue, but I was lucky to get the original vinyl recently, and that's where it finally clicked. Twisted underground jazz-rock of the highest order – perhaps not as dark or "avant" as the follow-up, but also very very good. I wonder if I need to get myself an original LP of Les Cycles... too, for it to make a final leap from my borderline classic Gnosis 12-13 territory to the 14s and 15s.
