LP version. Sommor presents the first ever legitimate reissue of Oberon's A Midsummer's Night Dream,
one of the rarest psych-folk albums from the UK, originally released in
1971 in a private edition of 99 copies. Oberon consisted of seven young
musicians who met while studying at Radley College in Oxford. Drawing
upon such influences as Fairport Convention, The Pentangle, King Crimson, The Incredible String Band, and Sandy Denny,
the group created a stunning piece of progressive folk. Fantastic sound
and recording quality, killer flute, guitar, violin, haunting vocals,
and medieval atmosphere. Now digitally remastered by band member and
sound engineer Jeremy Birchall, the record sounds better than ever. Includes fold-out insert with extensive liner notes and rare pictures.
