I only have Cosmic Century (not Traveller, Sean Trane! ). I wasn't
much impressed at the first listen, it will take me a few more to get
into it. But Shakespearesque (from their second, I suppose) is a great
track, as far as I remember

Interesting, any online samples of their music floating around in cyberspace?

Checked forum and nothing there.

Not comparable. Blietzkrieg is full of guitars and is borderline Deep Purple.

Are you not mistaken Wallenstein with Triumvirat?

Actually , the latter is S,S &S,  sonce Blitzkrieg is the debut.

Their first two albums ,Blitzkrieg and Mother Universe are both excellent , Cosmic Traveller (their third ) is a bit non-exciting , but S,S&S is atrociously bad, pompous and ridiculous. IMHO, of course!

Hi there, it's time to talk about this freaky 70's German space / symphonic band. Bill Barone & Jurgen Dollase duets (fire guitar solos and rapid keyboards scales) are totally outstanding (on their two first albums)
