French progressive rock band consisting of members Christian Clairefond, Henri Garella, Jean-Pierre Alarcen, Michel Jullien Henri Garella (keyboards) and Christian Clairefond (bass) went through various studio works as steppingstones to their musical career - e.g. Les Gardians, supporting the tour of Claude Francois in 1965. Only playing a role in supporting famous artists could not satisfy them and with this ambition Henri, Christian, and Michel Jullien (drums) whom they happened to meet in Marseilles, formed a jazz-rock outfit Les Golden, the roots of EDEN ROSE. An artistic director of a small label named Katema introduced them to Jean-Pierre Alarcen (guitars), already renowned as a talented session guitarist in France, and at that point EDEN ROSE could give a first cry. At first Jean-Pierre played as a guest musician for recording their first single 'Travelling/Under The Sun' (1970) but could formally be a member of EDEN ROSE after releasing it. Their first full album 'On The Way To Eden' (1970), recorded as a studio live one, is based upon the jazz-psych rock with full of keyboard and organ solo, played by Henri, the frontman. Anyway, surprisingly Jean-Pierre could master all songs for a few days, and with the terrific talent he led SANDROSE, the succeeding outfit of EDEN ROSE, to an unequivocal French Symphonic Prog Band. Sadly their relationship with the producer could not go well on the recording and the problem make them break up a while later. They played a key role in forming SANDROSE in 1971 and the rosy story should be continued ... <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Eden+Rose">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
