Can we get a week for Geir?

geir only does prog club

Anyone else want in?

Listening to Phallus Dei, this was the first Amon Düül II I ever bought. I read about them somewhere in the mid 90s and one of my mates ran me into Glasgow to Tower Records one evening (it opened til midnight). I got this and tanz der lemmings(they didnt have yeti) and 2 Neu! cds. It still sounds bizarre now, love it. I remember finding yeti a few weeks later 2nd hand along with the other Neu! cd. Great times.

This thread/club I will most likely follow than any other one.

sidenote: the Neu! box set is now available

Shipping cost will be a real bastard too

Oh they have that 12" single!

you paying 130 euros for the single then?

I'd like to take a week if I can. I have paid stupid amounts of money for Second Battle/Garden of Delights/Brain reissues and need to turn it into some kind of worthwhile social contribution. I should be able to provide some good stuff depending on where you guys take this thread.

That date suit you?

I like VIVA but wish that Klaus's vocals would get more unhinged or something.
I feel like he's not making his HERO effort.

He's actually trying be understood on this album though - that boy had something to say on this album, even had a lyric sheet!

No shit?
Makes sense. I was listening to Cha Cha 2000 on my way to work and imagining utopia.

I could possibly do a week of ones that I own on record. Won't be able to join in all of them as I can't use my computer for listening.

Viva is an odd one for me, as a fair few of my friends think 'White Overalls' is the best La Dusseldorf song, so I'm always put off it slightly due to my unwavering stance that the first side of La Dusseldorf is much better. And quite possibly the best side of music ever. It's a slightly unfair attitude to take to what is an otherwise great record in its own right.

30/06 - emil.y

that suit you?

Always think of "Viva/White Overalls" as one song. Actually the 1st album had a lyric sheet too but don't think he was being as profound there (xxp)

Sounds good. If anything comes up that means I can't do it then I should be able to let you know with plenty of time to spare. Not entirely sure what I've got that others won't know/have already taken, though!

xpost

tom d wanted to go later so maybe he will swap with you?

I think the idea of was for people who aren't as familiar with this stuff to visit these threads - but I don't know if it's working out that way!

tom d wanted to go later so maybe he will swap with you?

Oh no, I've already chosen my albums... but what happens if they're not on Spotify?

That would be far too early, I'm afraid. I think that's the day I get back from Primavera, and the rest of May is hella busy.

xposts!

then you provide a not on spotify
xp

ok works out fine then.

then you provide a not on spotify

Y'what?

Haha, yeah - I can't join in with the others as I don't own any of them and can't play music from the computer without pestering the mister to use his. So at least with this one I already own some of them.

tom, but those who want to discover krautrock need those who know about it to post albums for them to check out? Its for everyone! Everyone can post what they think of the albums whether its the first time they heard them or not.

tom check my 1st post for a not on spotify

Right, got ya

emil.y do you know the other 2 records i posted?

23rd works for me, or earlier if anyone wants to switch. Mentally I always divide this stuff between heavy psych and kosmiche/electronic stuff, so I will try to post a little of each.

many xposts re; NEU! boxset: Hey Mark G. - the single is available separately: http://www.neu2010-shop.com/content/produktekategorie.aspx?k=9&s=78

ooohh

I know, that's what I was meaning up there...

Really enjoying Viva now. This never grabbed me before like the first album. I'll have to track down Individuellos.

The muffled vocals are a bit annoying though.
