My fav German bands from that era are Eloy, Tangerine Dream, Cluster, UFO and Amon Duul II.  Ergo I guess the later gets my vote since it's listed.

(Yes I'm aware UFO wasn't real prog.  Everyone needs a little headbanging now and again.)  <SMILIE>


Most of all UFO were not a German band though.

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' )

The Baldies know Kraan, of course. I often pointed out Helmut Hattler of Kraan should appear in any bass poll.

Of course not naming Embryo is a big oversight. And how about Annexus Quam? And no-one seems to know Between! (They are not even in the archive!). All in all there are a lot missing. (Ash Ra Tempel, Dzyan, Birth Control, Wallenstein, Brainstorm, Popol Vuh, Xhol Caravan, to name a few more).

What about Faust, Popol Vuh and Ash Ra Tempel?

From the options given, Can first with Neu! a pretty close second.

And I'll join the chorus demanding Kraan - their 1975 live album is incendiary!

This is not a complete poll at all. Sooooo many great German artists are missing. Out of this list though, I'd have to go with Neu!.

If Pink Floyd is the Kings of England in the 70's and Frank Zappa the Kings of America, Tangerine Dream would have to be the Kings of Germany.
