What about Nektar. Yes, I know they are british, but their base was always Germany. Krautrock at it's best if you listen to "A Tab In The Ocean"!!!
marching on together!!

Where are Faust, Kraan & Kraftwerk...?

Anyway, I'm torn between Neu! and Can... I think I'll vote for Can, Kraut Rock at it's best. Tago Mago is beyond comparison

neuschwanstein, anabis, micky d´s unicorn, popol vuh...etc etc...

if u (for example)take a look at klaus schultze´s innovative communications label, u´ll find a load of interesting german prog rock-synthseizer bands.

 it will amaze u

How about "Kraan"...I wrote a review about an hour ago. Nobody really mentions them...I think they deserve to be mentioned, I really love their music.
Does anyone of you know them (I guess Phillipe knows them, I KNOw that he knows them because he knows almost EVERYTHING released by a german band in the70' )

I am absolutly with you.

I know only one track of this record. It's really beautiful music - but I prefer Grobschnitt.

Good technique on the high hat?

And that as well!

Unless I'm missing some important qualification, Kraftwerk is my choice for best German band of the 70s

I voted on my third personal option, AMON DUUL II. Why? Because nither Schicke, Fuhrs & Frohlling nor Agitation Freewere listed on this poll... a nice poll though

Regards.

Thank God you didn't suggest ELOY Vibe, otherwise you would've put me in the middle of a crossroad! So, following that stream, my vote completely goes to GROBSCHNITT (think we had had a conversation upon the band before, huh?)

Peace,

Land
