Let’s try to be kind and respectful here folks. You’re scaring the newbies (and oldbies) away.

Why did you think it was necessary to explain the joke? LOL

Paul could not resist the urge to try and mock me. It's like a bad itch for him at this point. LOL
Thanks for your charming, warm and friendly Private Message yesterday. I'll add you to my Buddy List. Big smile

or you could have replied, that would have been the right thing to do, but you confirm what i was thinking, you do not want to work things out, you want the mockery to continue. Otherwise why would you bring the discussion back in the open forum. You are not the victim here, you never were, you are the aggressor.

PM me if you want to work things out, otherwise the off-topic-ness is ruining this otherwise nice thread.

I didn't just for the formalist reason that they're not listed under Krautrock here. Their first albums should qualify for sure (and are in fact listworthy), but Mensch Maschine, which is my favourite, is rather correctly classified as electronic.


Understood. Thank you for the clarification.

Can - everything up to and including Soon Over Babaluma. Tago Mago being the favourite. I think I said it somewhere else already, but it's combination of beauty and chaos rarely heard.

Neu! - debut, 2 and '75. I like them all equally. 

Kraftwerk - everything starting from Autobahn. Trans-Europa Express is probably the one I like most. 

I used to like Faust, Amon Düül (both), Guru Guru, Agitation Free and such in the past, but can't really stand them anymore. 

edit: oh, while I'm at it, I'd like to mention a few (relatively) new Finnish bands very much influenced by different variants of Krautrock: Circle, Ektroverde, Verde, Eturivi and Avarus. They're all quite varied and to me very much hit and miss, but you might want to check them out. They're all in PA database so go from there or google or whatever.

Well, I can tell you that much, Jake, as I've had a period of being very fond of Autobahn, but that was many years ago - and yet I hope, it was peacefull enough. Wink

Again, I don't have a problem with you in any way, never did.

Let's leave it at that (you can still PM me), enough off-topic-ness. Let's get back to Krautrock and German prog.

And I can tell you here that much as what you wrote to me in the last to PMs is not the right direction. Ouch

You're to far out now, Cristi, and in fact I've written to you already everything, I can say about the present problems between us. Or rightly speaking, I don't think, we can have further honest and more clarifying dialogue due to your position. 

So, I certainly want to better the situation between us, but it can only happen in the forum.


My position? I honestly don't know what you think "my position" is here. 
I got mocked continuously by another user for three days. And it upset me. That is my only position. 

Somehow in all of this, you ended up being upset with me. I got no problem with you, how and why you ended up in the middle of this? I do not know.

(Edit: Or at least it didn't seem so - even as I see it, it should be possible.)

I was hoping we discuss our misunderstandings by PM, not in the open forum. Ouch

Let's better say, we don't talk in PMs about anything concerning PA. 

That would have been the only place where we could have discussed our misunderstanding, but if you don't want to discuss anywhere, so be it.

So constructive you can be, Paul, even I could feel a bit insulted by:

"All four albums are notable for featuring the combined talents of guitarist Manuel Goettsching, although I'm sure any aficionados of Krautrock will know that already. Wink"  

LOL

In the spirit of Friendship in this New Age of Earth we're currently living in, I'll add a few more Krautrock favourites to my Galactic Supermarket shopping list.
These are Space Rock albums I Dream and Desire of the most. Smile

5 stars 2000: Ash Ra Tempel - Friendship (with Klaus Schulze) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-UvObqiyVg
4 stars 1974: The Cosmic Jokers - Galactic Supermarket - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVo_cS_XdL8
5 stars 1991: Manuel Göttsching - Dream and Desire - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wF7JDLIauKE&t=1206s

All four albums are notable for featuring the combined talents of guitarist Manuel Goettsching, although I'm sure any aficionados of Krautrock will know that already. Wink
