This album
appeared on the scene in 1971 originally self-released by ZIPPO
ZETTERLINK and later re-issued by the US label Psycho Path Records. A
collection of live recordings at the Blow Up Club in Munich from 1969, a
festival in Hamburg and some studio output from 1971. Rough free formed
jams by guitarist Wolfgang Orschakowski hailing from the Hamburg
underground scene. Although he is supported by drums, bass, percussion
and flutes at least the album cover does not tell anything about the
line-up.Improvised psychedelic blues might be a fairly suitable
description about what you are listening to when starting with the long
track 'At Sunday Night In The Blow Up' recorded live in Munich which
covers one vinyl side. Not very inspiring as for my personal taste over
the course of time. Kaputt - literally could be translated to 'wasted' -
does not sound like this at all. Much more drum dominated nearly
soloing all the way through and accompanied by a great accentuated
guitar with early Clapton reminiscences plus some flute additions -
something special - this is a really excellent track! On Ein
Gemmenmärchen Zippo trys to sing but the result is not more than some
sprechgesang with this typical charming accent backed by a simple blues
theme. With It's Groovy, The Electric Light Machine, Boy another great
track comes up - this time dominated by playful bass plus percussion
support. Take Over, Electric Light is proving the album's experimental
side when blending samples, radio snippets and a semi-acoustic blues
guitar.
