This review is from: Unknown Deutschland - The Krautrock Archive Volume 3 (Audio CD)

Not as outstanding as the 'Unknown Deutschland,Volume 1'(see my review),but still a decent pick.Need to keep in mind these are extremely little-known sub-underground Krautrock bands that originally had released their lp's in a limited quantity of fifty each around 1974-76.Most of these bands reportedly never even got out of the garage let alone signed.So,now we're able to fully experience these otherwise unavailable recordings.About half the artists on this disc have one full length disc available out there.Best tracks here are Golem's "Stellar Launch",the lengthy Galactic Explorer's "Ethereal Jazz" and Chrono's "Schaudernacht",which is okay.If it sounds like something you might enjoy,I encourage you to get a copy.
