Editorial Reviews

In 1973, Rolf Ulrich Kaiser's visionary powers acted as a catalyst for an authentic combination of acid, music and sprituality: the mystical LSD-fueled musical project "Lord Krishna von Goloka." For this adventure into Indian and Oriental mythologies and legends, Kaiser asked esoteric Swiss artist (he was a friend of Giger's), poet, specialist on Alpine folklore, and friend of Timothy Leary, Sergius Golowin, to join a group of musicians including Klaus Schulze and members of Wallenstein and Witthser + Westrupp. It was perhaps mere coincidence that Golowin's classic treatise on witches, herbs, and magic mushrooms was published that same year (Magie der verbotenen M„rchen); the book was fast becoming a cult item-it was secretly xeroxed in what was then-Communist East Germany, and later distributed in the hippie-underground there. Sergius Golowin's intellectual and spiritual world of occultism, popular legends, and shamanism were the foundation for the project. He was responsible for the lyrics, which consisted of incantatory recitations in German over the multi-textural compositions. --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lord Krishna doesn't live up to legendary status, December 31, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lord Krishna Von Goloka (Audio CD)
This album is held in high esteem, but frankly it's overated.
Here's why:
-sounds like story time in kindergarten (remember when you had to shut up and listen or stand in the corner).
-the music is OK, but is meandering and never really gels.
-after your perfunctory listen, you'll check it off your Krautrock list and file it away until you wonder if it was as dull as you remember and then you'll refile it again.

My advice prior to purchasing is to scour the internet to hear what it sounds like and then listen to it all and then if you think I am a schmuck who doesn't know what he's talking about spend your $15 + shipping and taxes if applicable and play it to your heart's content.
