Glowworm Compressed on the sleeve of the only release by Caribou. Designed by Polish designer Bogdan Żochowski (1936–2006), Glowworm was released by Mecanorma, the French manufacturer of dry transfer lettering sheets, in 1975. The Compressed width followed shortly after.
From oopswhoops:
Some sources give 1977 as recording date for this record while others give 1979, so it’s hard to tell if Caribou was a Cortex side project or Alain Mion’s short-lived following band after the disbandment of Cortex. Stupid lyrics but first class french JazzFunk. Rare French pressing only on Eurodisc label.
