Recorded at the Stadthalle in Basel Switzerland in February 1970, this bootleg has Taste doing some of the best numbers from their albums "Taste" and "On The Boards", plus an eight minute version of "Pontiac Blues". I wonder what this "Irish Werewolf" bit is all about.

This, the first album by Brainticket, may be one of the most psychedelic Krautrock albums of all time. The first two tracks, "Black Sand" and "Places Of Light", sound like the type of psych/prog material you would expect from an album of this time, but the rest of the disc, "Brainticket" is a long, repetitive, almost minimalistic, variation on a chunky organ riff, lotta percussion and sound effects and sound collages. Atop all this a woman almost incoherently acts out a 'trip', vividly relating her experiences of paranoia, power, and confusion. "Something's missing - find it! find it!" she screams. Hot stuff to some of us but probably just annoying to others LOL!

This five piece Krautrock band play some pretty trippy and heavy German prog with heavy, swirling, organ grinds, extensive guitar work-outs, flute playing, bass riffs and complex drumming. Vocals are sung in English and German and used sparingly really with some chanting and talking all adding to this cosmic experience. Overall sound is like a cross of Hendrix and Pink Floyd. Album seems aptly titled, the music being inventive and full of surprises.

Jane was Germany's most popular group during the 1970's and after hearing this debut album it's easy to understand why. They play a kind of progressive, melodic, hard rock that has no equal. Breathtaking guitar solos, powerful keyboards, strong polished arrangements are all Jane trademarks. This is classic Krautrock.

I didn't have a Garage Sale/Thrift Store find this week so I uploaded this disc for those that may need some different Halloween music. This thing has 30 tracks, mostly 1950's rock groups doing songs that are mainly concerned with graveyards, werewolves, monsters, gorillas, and such. Nothing as cool as "Monster Mash", but hey.
Download
OK then! Until next week!

Hello--- I just came across yer blog last night via a link on "everythings surreal" blog and it has already BLOWN MY EVERLOVIN MIND. You must have an amazing krautrock collection! I have a radioshow on Live365.com called SPACESHIP CACKALACKA which plays mainly 60's-70's psych&prog rock, and I can tell that your blog will be a big help in expanding my playlist! Anyway, just wanted to tell you how cool this blog is and invite you (and all other visitors) to check out my show if you get a chance!
