Profile

Hello music lovers! Here is an "addicted" collector, all did begin 1974 with self recorded tapes of CAN (Tago Mago) and Amon Düül II (Yeti), later John Peel (r.i.p.) was my "hero". Always interested in new music, only collecting things I really like. Ratings are always subjective, depending on taste, so please don't have negative feelings as an artist/label, if I rate 3 stars or less. Everybody please listen with his own ears. Thank you for understanding! Happy listening and collecting, LOVE & PEACE!

Today (23.06.2021) I begin a new life, want to escape from the computer, no more daily like 30 mails from bandcamp, mailorders, bands, checking different blogs and homepages aso. Enough is (nearly) enough, now I want to enjoy only. Most of the vinyl, which I bought up to 2015, is not here in my collection, with ratings I did begin also at that point. CDs are like ready. If you like this kind of music, you can browse my collection and find out more. Take care and enjoy life, I will try better after 38 years of excessive collecting. I intend to sell records later, but please send no questions to me now, also no questions about ripping something please. 1000 thanks and best wishes!

New album "Ain't Trip Ceremony" on vinyl on Bad Afro and as the label says (100% correct), this does earn the vinyl. Today you can listen the whole album on bc, another psych gem!

Again a different style, this is the most changing band I know (actually mostly made by great Fred Laird, former Earthing Society hero). Always great and very individual and far away from any mainstream ever... listen to all, if you don't know yet!... See full review

By far mostly intrumentals, should be interesting for fans of Khrangbuin and Altin Gün, highly underrated compared to those... You can listen fully at bandcamp... ;)

They made many great and good records, to be honest, I did not buy after 2006 (but could have, much qualitiy the whole time...), but this is really outstanding, big recommendations, even if perhaps a bit proggy for some people.... ;)

My big love did begin with "Drop", also like Damaged Bug (what a great name!). The brand new one is more like an Oh Sees' record, check it out! It's a cover album, great song selection, also recommended for fans of Michael Yonkers. From today fully at bc.
