* EpicRocking: averted by Mr Rainbow which whole sounding huge is actually only 3:49 (or 3:45) long. In the 1980 album it is still the longest track because the songs generally last between 2:30 and 3:30

Casablanca Moon is a 1974 (or 1973 or 1980 still) album by Music/SlappHappy whose history is pretty complicated. It was first recorded by the band in 1973 with ascetic, austere instrumentation. Its genre can be definited as a mix of art-pop and avant-pop with a share of progressive-pop.

The {{Producers}} in Virgin did not like it therefore it was rerecorded in 1974 with the addition of many instruments so that it sounded much more lush. It was released under two names: Slapp Happy and Csablanca Moon.

The band members, Moore and Blegvad were not entirely satisfied by the result and later managed to rerelease the original versions of the tracks which were more to their liking. It happened in 1980 already after Krause had left for Music/HenryCow and Moore and Blegved parted their ways too. Now everyone can compare the versions and tell which are better.

For the 1974 release:

# "Casablanca Moon" (2:45)
