Achim Reichel — Warum Peter Nur Noch Ferien Macht
from AR 3 (1973)
Gorgeous, trippy krautrock guitar jams from a master of the genre, Achim Reichel. This gets real crazy a couple minutes from the end. Don’t miss it.
Mutant Sounds, that infinite vault of wonder, has this and a radio broadcast bootleg from 1973, which is also worth spacing out to…
The Human League — Don’t You Want Me
An unforgettable performance by The Human League on German TV in 1982. Red lipstick, rouge and eyeliner are really the key to this song!
(the Hollywood footprints are a little extraneous, yes, but then again so are the fake palms)
These Animals — Side By Side
from These Animals EP (2011)
These Brooklyn art school kids are a kickstarter success story, their songs full of skydiving guitar lines and anti-depressant-strength vocal harmonies. Prizes in every box to reward repeated listening… great arrangement throughout the album, particularly on the sweet & lovely track ‘Miles.’ Don’t miss that one!
Their new EP is out now on Germany’s Aaahh Records. Grab it for FREE there, or stream at the Free Music Archive. Another 4-track EP, the Souvenir Sessions, available free from Jamundo. Or catch them on the road — they play DC and Philly next month.
Oh, and Tumblrer Unsigned Unleashed has an interview with the drummer, if you’re curious.
Shake the Hippie — The 39 Clocks
from Pain it Dark (1981)
The 39 Clocks waren eine Underground-Band aus Hannover.
