The Shiver are for sure the most renowned psychedelic band of
Switzerland. Their one and only LP "Walpurgis" is legendary and hardly
affordable. So, evidently, a lot of bootleg versions appeared on the
market over the years, but all of them very poorly done. The CD on
Garden of Delights is produced, as usual, with a detailed band story, a
lot of illustrations, a detailed discography inclusive label and cover
repros, and, last but not least, three bonus tracks. Two of those are
taken from the very rare compilation "1. Schweizer Rhythm and Blues
Festival". The early version of "Repent Walpurgis" comes from a
so-called split single from 1968, where you can find The Etc on its flip
side. Thus, the complete released works of The Shiver can be found on
this CD. The fold-out cover artwork designed by H.R. Giger was taken
over unchanged.
