KALACAKRA — Crawling To Lhasa (1972-2001) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

TKalacakra’s "Crawling to Lhasa" is one of the few German psychedelic classics. Their 1972 LP has become such an attractive collectors’ item (today’s value is US$400 in mint condition) that several bootlegs have appeared on the market. In 1993, an official CD version was released on the Lost Pipedreams label, which has long since become unavailable. The final release on the Garden of Delights label contains a 32-page colour booklet, featuring a detailed history of the Duisburg band and their community together with numerous photographs, which reflect the sombre, stoned atmosphere of the record in a perfect manner. "Raga no. 11" is probably the best track, with "Nearby Shiras" reflecting the most psychedelic aspect of the band’s music. It is about the Black Plague raging in this Persian town hundreds of years ago. GOD
