An extract from the the 'about us' blurb Fruits De Mer site almost certainly says it better than I can:

"Fruits de Mer Records - possibly the world's smallest vinyl-only psych/prog/acid folk/krautrock/spacerock record label - but then again, maybe not - what do we know? Established way back in 1715 (that's a quarter past five in the evening), we started out with the carefully laid-out plan to unearth and reissue long-lost, classic tracks from the sixties and early seventies - but the record companies with the rights to the back-catalogues simply didn't want to know us. After several weeks of crying into our coco pops, we thought, "sod it, we'll do it ourselves"...and we have. The tracks we are releasing are the same classic tracks, but they are reinterpreted by artists who love them, respect them but want to breathe new life into them...and they do, god bless 'em [...]"

Essentially the point of this group is to discuss all things FdM, plus any vinyl or music chat that has a tenuous link (or not!) to psych/prog/acid folk/krautrock/spacerock.

There is an FdM forum, but it's currently sulking in an unlit, cold corner of the Wibbly Wobbly Web because no one will talk to it, so I thought I'd give this a go (with the blessing of FdM's Andy and Keith) to see what happens.
