Guru Guru (UFO and Hinton)
Amon Duul (1st 2 records) Amon Duul II (1st 3 records) Brainticket was pretty weird shit though it doesn't hold up over time, some really cheesy cut n paste tape collage action but quite the influence on Nurse With Wound Ash Ra Tempel (1st 2 albums) Agitation Free's Malesch is awesome... Xhol Caravan !!! then you got Cluster, Harmonia...etc etc... and there's obviously alot of other super obscuro shit that like will never get reissued those LPs that go for easily multi-hundreds of dollars. |

it was progressive rock.
that's what the bands called it and that's what they were trying to do, german progressive rock. |

well it's progressive in that it was a developement on what happened before, but it's not prog. i don't care what the bands themselves say.

you get into genres and subgenres discussions.
is it a continuation of one or simply influenced but which brought something else. i think that, in the big picture, it was part of the progressive rock period (more so than sound). |

hawkwind are considered prog.
the stooges were on the counterpoint of genres...sort of post garage i meant prog rock period as in time and implying an approach to music. |

i know exactly what you meant, and my point is that defining prog that way doesn't work & you don't need to explain the stooges place in music history either. and people can consider what they like, but hawkwind aren't prog. |

whatever, i've seen hawkwind cathegorized as prog a lot. i don't really can put them in league with like procul harum or balleto di bronzo, but the lumping has been made.
actually, who cares? it's just repetitive, psychedelic 70's german rock. |

I wish someone would reprint Julian Cope's Krautrocksampler book.

He's in the middle of writing a Japrocksampler one. That should be fucking excellent.

krautrocksampler turns up on ebay from time to time, if i was flush i'd buy it, i've seen it go for 30 or 40 quid which is pricey but not outrageous |

For people who want to listen to Kraftwerk, I recommend the Trans Europe Express.
Some people consider this the start of dance music. It was defenitly a pioneer album for computer music |

i think that's the blog Nefeli is referring to
http://8daysinapril.blogspot.com/. It's down at the moment, and i can't find the download links anymore. I have saved them up until June 2006, so I have more than enough to download anyway. My favorite of these apart from the albums I already had are Drosselbart Gäa Mythos Sperrmüll Kraan Mammut Arzachel (by the way, song # 3 from the record you can download seems to be known by MF Doom when he composed the song Old School ft. Talib Kweli) |
