Here something quite special, not known by everyone: Aqua were founded
in Kassel in 1972. They played progressive rock like it was at fashion
at those times, thus with a lot of organ. In 1972, too, they recorded
four self-written songs as a demo for promoters and record companies.
Though they couldn’t make a record company to become interested they got
a lot of gigs. Thus, they themselves released a 7" single “Going my
way”/“Teenage feelings” in 1978, already more smoothed out. In 1981,
they did an LP which already was mainstream, like it was up to date,
then. The number of copies made was 1000 for each record. The here
available CD contains the until now unreleased four songs of 1972, both
tracks of their single, and according to the demand of the artists two
songs from the LP which still show some progressive influences. GOD
