this is tough, so many great ones, so I kept to 21 artists, and allowed live albums. The ones with asterisk probably would not make the top 12
alphabetically Amenophis - s/t Anyone's Daughter - Live Birth Control - Plastic People Carol of Harvest - s/t Eden - Erwartung Eloy - tie between Dawn and Time to Turn, but I could have chosen 4 others Favni - Windswept * Galahad - The Return of the Piper * Grobschnitt - Solar Music Live Hoelderlin - Traum * Midnight Circus - s/t * Minotaurus - Fly Away * Novalis - Veillicht... * Passport - Garden of Eden Pell Mell - tie between Marburg and Rhapsody (2 very different albums) Poor Genetic Material - tie between Spring Tidings and Winter's Edge (singer is Scottish but two main instrumentalists are German) Rebekka - Phoenix * Rousseau - retreat Sundenfall II - s/t Tangerine Dream - Force Majeure Triumvirat - Old Loves Die Hard * Troya - Point of Eruption * Zomby Woof - Riding on a Tear Edited by kenethlevine - September 21 2021 at 11:17 |

One per artist: 1. Can - Tago Mago 2. Triumvirat - Spartacus 3. Popol Vuh - Aguirre 4. Tangerine Dream - Zeit 5. Technical Space Composer's Crew - Canaxis 5 6. Pork Pie - Transitory 7. Eberhard Weber Colours - Silent Feet 8. Kraftwerk - Kraftwerk 9. Klaus Schulze - Dune 10. Eroc - Eroc 11. Eiliff - Eiliff 12. Faust - Faust Now that's a lot more variety than my Dutch prog top 10.

I dunno if I have 12 different German bands, but I'll see what comes out here...
1. Eloy - Poseidon's Creation 2. Triumvirat - Spartacus 3. Amon Duul II - Phallus Dei 4. Can - Tago Mago 5. Kraan - (original album) 6. Popol Vuh - Hosianna Mantra 7. Frumpy - Frumpy II 8. Lucifer's Friend - Where the Groupies Killed the Blues 9. Tangerine Dream - Rubycon 10. Grobschnitt - Rockpommels Land 11. Faust - (original) 12. Holderlin - Traum Also have Ash Ra Tempel (original) but it hasn't grabbed me much, and some music from Kraftwerk, Klause Schultz, Anyone's Daughter and Eberhard Weber, but haven't heard it enough to have an opinion.

I honestly can't think of any German bands I can't stand, but that's probably because I haven't listened to enough German prog, seeing as I've never heard any albums by Can or Minotaurus. I do like Tangerine Dream though.

no order, 1 band per album:
Anyone's Daughter - Adonis Triumvirat - IoaDD Amenophis - S/T Eloy - Ocean Neuschwanstein - Battlement Novalis - S/T And I think that's it. I probably forgot 1 or maybe 2 records that I rarely listen to but whatevs. As a bonus, here are the top 3 German bands that I can't stand no matter how highly they're rated. Can Minotaurus Tangerine Dream |

Can - Ege Bamyasi (but anything from their debut up to and including Soon over Babulama would make the list)
Popol Vuh - Nosferatu: On the Way to a Little Way / Brüder Des Schattens - Söhne Des Lichts Cosmic Jokers - Galactic Supermarket Tangerine Dream - Phaedra Embryo - Stieg Aus (but they've got like six equally strong contenders) Klaus Schulze - Mirage Amon Düül II - Yeti Faust - So Far Kraan - Kraan Kraftwerk - Die Mensch-Maschine Cluster - Zuckerzeit Dzyan - Electric Silence Loads more I would have like to include: Frankie Dymon Jr (just doesn't really feel german), Dom, Harmonia, Deuter, Brave New World, Kalacackra, A.R + Machines, Tortilla Flat mm...

Apart from copious amounts of Kraftwerk I don't really have much German prog in my collection.
