Great to have you back up in this place John And just like you said, we, at least some of us, work with a somewhat loose definition of Krautrock that opens up to a lot of different genres such as fusion, electronic and psych. I too have my early Kraan and Exmagma in the Krautlands of my collection Regarding RYM and the whole tagging thing, I think it could be interesting to have multi-tagging as well. We'd be facing a lot of Swedish acts in Kraut as well - such as Älgarnas Trädgard, Kebnekaise, Arbete och Fritid, International Harvester and Fläsket Brinner.

By the way i also have this Missus Beastly live album from 1974 from a Radio Bremen broadcast that has Eddy Moran playing guitar on throughout. Very cool ! They're another band listed here under Jazz/Fusion that i keep in my Krautrock section along with Ex-Magma, Thirsty Moon, Dzyan, Out Of Focus and i'm sure there's more.
I should mention that i listened to Guru Guru's posthumous release called Live In Germany 1971 tonight. Recorded by Radio Bremen after the release of UFO and Hinten, this one kicks some serious ass ! The three songs are extended from their original studio lenghts as we get over an hour of Krautrock from the boys.

Also i have my music sorted by genre and because of that i might have some albums from a band in one section and others of their's in another because they've changed their style. Actually i have early Kraan in Krautrock and their later stuff in Jazz/Fusion.
I'm very familiar with Eddy Moran from Vita Nova and Dzyan but i've not heard of that later project so i'll check them out. Thanks ! The man can play guitar. |

I always loved Thirsty Moon's first couple of albums especially their second. But honestly i wouldn't categorize them as krautrock.

^Hell yeah!!!
I'm glad you like it Steve. Always room for some more Krautrock heads around here. Has been kind of slow the past couple of months - so it is great to have you aboard.
I am visiting an old fave of mine called Think - Variety. Great combo of psych and fusion with a slight nod towards the end of the 60s. |

I am really digging the Thirsty Moon as well, although that sounds like an old Indian proverb of some sorts... Definitely going on the list.
And seeing as everything evolves around jazz with you at the moment John, I just got a hold of Exmagma's third album. Haven't spun it yet, but man am I looking forward to it. If it's anything like the two previous ones, I'll be a happy camper, and this post will fit into the Krautrock space too, as I truly believe Exmagma were a Krautrock band with fusion ties. |

I really like Thirsty Moon and like Cornucopia that was just mentioned there's a Jazz flavour at times to go along with the trippy mood. Cool stuff !
Never heard of Moolah and i'm shocked they came from the USA and released it in 1974. Just a rare gem really.

Here's something I discovered a couple of years ago, I don't think they've been mentioned on this thread yet. I'd heard their debut album years ago but didn't like it that much, then I came across the second album, and WOW what an improvement. Here is side one of Thirsty Moon's second album "You'll Never Come Back".
1. I See You (7:19) 2. Trash Man (14:20) Groovy stuff. |

I'm checking out Cornucopia now. I'm feeling the tang as we speak.

^Nice clip there - thanks mister "I don't iron my clothes".
Hey is there anybody out there who actually has that Cornucopia record? I think they lost the Krautrock feel by their second outing, but this one called Full Horn, which also should be quite obvious in the YouTube clip, is one big tangy hot sauce disc. I really dig that record.

Yeah I am loving the Moolah as well
Here's another one of those obscure yet highly infatuating releases, that just seems to get better and better with every spin: Full album(but please check out the monumental epic first track here that takes up about 20 min): |
