Oparin Oleg's Album Reviews

This is one of those anamoly records. A true one of a kind. Recorded in 1971 in the famous EMI studios in Colonge Germany. It has a grand but haunting production with space effects, wah and backwards guitar and drum sounds. And to top it off a fretless electric bass sliding around.Beautiful soundscapes in the arrangements with nicely sung vocals that change from emotional cries to bubble gum and also a nasty sounding Ozzy type howl. Also Iommi type guitar blasting here and there. And the longest acoustic track 20 min + that used to take up a side of the record. The bonus tracks from the '90s are not that impressive, but the original 5 tracks are essential for krautrock collectors. This can still blow your mind today....
