As one digs deeper beyond your usual Can/Faust/Neu/TD starting points, there's a whole new layer of little musical gems to be found and this is one of the best, from a short-lived Hamburg group. Mix of crunchy rock jamming with serious prog overtones -- mostly those duelling flutes... always very prog, a flute -- but also some more medieval touches and a genuinely groovy Stylophone-through-fuzzbox interlude. We've had a few side-long tracks recently so I eschewed posting "The End" from side two, but if you like all three of these imagine them all being played at once.
Sample tracks (one download):
02. Alpha Beta Gamma Delta
03. Lenina
04. Soma
(mp3, 31.6 mb)
As always, more background at Crack in the Cosmic Egg and Gnosis has a good piece on this particular record.
