For one thing, it features marvellous harmony singing... But there's nothing of the vocal complexity of the later releases; more straight late-60s/early-70s hard rock. (Except – of course – for the...

The classic, early 70s, Ash Ra Tempel features long, spacey guitar improvisations, often on top of the trance-like, metronomic drumming/rythm, which is so characteristic of kraut. Like Amon Düül II...

The Division Bell
'High Hopes' is definitely a good track - in the top 10 anyway - and The Division Bell is a decent record. But many Pink Floyd fans hate it; cannot understand way. It's certainly quite progressive as...

Just be prepared: Kraut is (often) very psychedelic. If you think 'Gates of Delirium' is psych you will O.D. when you hear Amon Düül II and early Ash Ra Tempel. There's a lot of zappa/gong-like...

No Samla?
I find no Samla Mammas Manna in the playlist. Accident? Difficult to obtain their CDs?
