Details
German Rock Scene – The Clash Of Ages, collates the early days of the German Rock movement, especially music released on the legendary Bacillus record label, with the current Psych-/Prog-/Retro- Rock scene in Germny. Compiled by Okta Logue, whose style is often referred to as being influenced by '60s psychedelic rock bands, they picked their favorite tunes from the Bacillus catalogue to shape Disc 1 of this outstanding 2CD/2LP rock document and with Disc 2 being the modern rock contingenet, this compilation is both a great introduction and a great bridge between two eras. It has exclusive liner notes by one of the last remaining witnesses of the original era, Bacillus Records cover designer and book author Helmut Wenske aka Chris Hyde, who became well known for his psychedelic artwork for bands like Nektar. Great double vinyl package, wa DL card containiNg the bonus tracks featured on the 2CD version. "Music from Germany is so much more than just Boney M. and Silver Convention, more than BAP, Die Toten Hosen or Doro Pesch. For over forty years now Rock music from Germany has been a multifaceted happening on its own. And that is something we are allowed to be a little bit proud of, aren’t we? ‘" Classic Rock Magazine
