Changes was the first solo-album of Peter Sjardin, made in the mid/late 70s "He played all instruments by himself: percussion, guitar and keyboard. The recording came from the late seventies, 1978 according to some sources. The title song is based on a Group 1850 song Verandering (change in Dutch) that had been composed in the late sixties, But doesn’t appear until 1975 on the Group 1850 album Live. Changes was never officially released and the reason for it has gone in the mist of time. Could it be a business conflict with the Frysian label Universe Productions and the artist? Was something wrong in the pressing? Did the record company have other reasons to reject this production? When I ask Peter about it in 2011, his reaction was one of complete surprise. He seemed to have totally forgotten he ever made the album. It was clear to me that further questions on the subject would be pointless. The musician clearly had no idea what I was talking about.
The fact is that the vinyl got pressed and the whole edition minus a box of 30 pieces, was subsequently destroyed. A cover was never designed. The surviving pieces have found their way to high-end collectors since. For decades no copy was ever offered for sale, which makes Changes one of the rarest and most legendary albums of Dutch origin. Because there have been no copies sold, it’s impossible to estimate the value". (Robert Haagsma)
