ANALOGY — Analogy (1972-2001) Two Version | APE + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Analogy are undisputedly among the classic bands of German rock. Their only LP is valued at around US$1400 in prime condition. The magnificent title track "Analogy", from which the band took its name and which is included in the present selection, reminds us of the psychedelic music of early Pink Floyd and is one of the highlights of this musical genre. The band consisted of four German musicians living in Italy at the time, and one Italian, who left the band shortly after the release of their LP because of internal band disputes. A certain part of later Analogy CD and LP publications were initially illegal, but later approved by the band after amicable settlements. Next to numerous pictures, the 32-page colour booklet features a detailed band history and a complete discography with Analogy off-springs. The music was taken from master tapes. GOD

NECRONOMICON — Tips Zum Selbstmord (1972-2004) Two Version | APE + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Sounds like Uriah Heep with German lyrics by Floh de Cologne. One of the most looked for and expensive LPs in the German rock area. Thus, quite some bootleg versions are on the market, too. How to distinguish between the legal and the illegal versions is fully described in the CD's booklet, varified label repros. With their lyrics the musicians from Aachen wanted to draw attention to the environmental destruction, the overspill population, thoughtlessness and oppression. Consequently, they sang in German, as to make everybody, at least in the German speaking community, understand their message. The four long tracks, which can be heard additionally, were taken from the 4LP set "Vier Kapitel" (Four Chapters). They now have a better sound, which is quite audible. In the booklet you can find just everything a collector's heart desires. GOD

NECRONOMICON — Strange Dreams (1976-2009) Two Version | WV + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Necronomicon from Aachen are known for their LP "Tips zum Selbstmord" from 1972 which contains very tart lyrics in German. It was released in a complex fold-out cover and is today traded at about €1000 in mint condition. You have to beware, however, of counterfeits. Some until then unreleased tracks of the group appeared on the quadruple LP “Vier Kapitel” [“four chapters”] in 1990. In 1976, there was the first split of Necronomicon; that same year, however, also saw the band’s reunion, partly with new artists. They now used English lyrics instead of German ones, and the lyrics weren’t by far as critical as they had been before. The tracks were shorter, the music somehow more complex. The CD “Strange dreams” contains ten until then unreleased tracks recorded at rehearsals and three from a gig in Herzogenrath near Aachen in 1976. GOD

VIKINGS INVASION — Vol. 1 (1975-2006) Two Version | APE (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Vikings Invasion from the German-speaking part of Switzerland played quite a rough type of blues-rock with progressive touch. Charles Sterchi on guitar and vocals, Eric Eberhard on bass, and Gerhard Burri on drums had played together in this simplest possible configuration already since 1970 and originally called themselves after a character by Brecht. In 1975, their only LP was released exclusively in England where they lived and had concerts for some time; it carried the optimistic title “Vol.1”. The creature on the cover is meant to represent Basle’s heraldic dragon which was, however, considerably manipulated. In Switzerland a bootleg LP of “Vol. 1” was released in 1997, on which a permanent grinding noise significantly disturbs the pleasure of listening. The work is of interest mainly because of the high collectors’ price fixed for the original LP. GOD

EILIFF — Bremen 1972 (1972-2009) Three Version | APE + WV + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Eiliff, living together in a house in Cologne-Rath, did release two LPs and a 7" single. Elaborated works of art indeed, but too elaborated to be consumed by the masses. They are reminiscent of Soft Machine, but didn’t work on that on purpose. Like the most jazz-rock bands they all performed highly professional. So Rainer Brüninghaus isn’t the only one who knows what he is doing. Jazz-rock is a style of music which sounds kind of cold – too cold for some people. A fact that might be reinforced by absent vocals. On CD one can find Eiliff’s gig from 4/19/1972 which took place at the underground bar Lila Eule (Lilac Owl) at Bernhardstraße. A bar which always was found in trouble with the cops and the authorities. The gig was recorded and broadcast by Radio Bremen. The master tapes were kept safe properly, and now given free for release. GOD

GRAVESTONE — Doomsday (1979-2004) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Who talks about Gravestone means often the metal band from Illertissen from the eighties. True, later they really played some hard stuff, but their first two LPs, with the titles “Doomsday” (1979) and “War” (1980) were pure progressive rock (only some slight hard-rock influences could be heard). At the end of the nineties “Doomsday” was released as a bootleg CD, which was taken from the record. It was made up quite cheap and was released with neither the artists’ knowledge nor their consent. The now available legal CD on Garden of Delights was taken from the master tape. Its bonus was taken from the same studio session. In the booklet you can find a detailed story about the band in German and English version, a detailed discography even with their latest records, a lot of pictures, as well as cover and label repros.

GRAVESTONE — War (1980-2008) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

In the eighties, Gravestone from Illertissen, Swabia, became quite famous as a hard rock and metal group. What many people don’t know is that they initially - and with a different line-up - released two LPs with progressive rock and critical lyrics, namely “Doomsday” (AVC K 793102 ST) from 1979 and “War” (AVC LP 80020 ST) from 1980, in small editions of 1000 copies each. Meanwhile both albums have been released as CDs on Garden of Delights; both drawn from the master tapes. In addition to a very detailed band history the booklets of both CDs contain a lot of photographs, a complete discography also of the group’s late period, cover and label reproductions, etc. “War” contains much more vocals than “Doomsday”, namely four tracks sung in English, two in German, and one instrumental piece.

SOUL CARAVAN — Live 1969 (1969-2006) Two Version | WV + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

What are Soul Caravan doing on a label like Garden of Delights? Well, during their first years, they actually played pure soul music, sometimes jazz or blues. But this concert was given in the last days before their renaming into Xhol Caravan, at the beginning of 1969. Here, the direction that should be followed can already be discerned. The sound is excellent, even amazingly good for those days. Unfortunately, the recordings are not complete. At least, the nearly forty minutes conserved are just enough for one CD. Apart from two inevitable old soul classics (“(Sittin’ on) the dock of the bay” by Otis Redding and “Lick a stick” by James Brown) and a jazz standard (“My favorite things” by John Coltrane), Soul Caravan present a very early version of their self-written track “All green” and a drum solo by Skip. A testimonial to their times. GOD

XHOL — Hau-RUK (1971-2002) Two Version | APE + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

In the seventies, Xhol, from Wiesbaden, originating from Xhol Caravan, were one of the best known underground bands in Germany. In 1970 they signed a contract with the new Ohr label of Peter Meisel and Rolf Ulrich Kaiser. In the summer of that year they recorded a live gig, but it took until 1971 to be released as LP "Hau-RUK" (Ohr OMM 56.014). The title of the LP is a word-play. There are only two long pieces on the LP, the jazzy-psychedelic "Breit" (the German equivalent for "stoned") and the bluesy track "Schaukel". In 1995 it was re-released as a poor bootleg CD by Germanofon. The legal version is now available on Garden of Delights. It offers a long extra track, recorded in 1974 by Dieter Dierks in his studio, as well as a thick booklet with loads of information on Xhol and the Ohr label, discographies, photographs, cover and label repros, stories etc. GOD

XHOL — Altena 1970 (1970-2006) Two Version | WV + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

After shortening their name from Xhol Caravan to Xhol, they had another gig in Altena, and again promoter Heinz Bonsack professionally recorded the concert. Due to his foresighted circumspection, it is now fixed on the CD, except for only one track which had to be left out for a lack of space. It is jazzier than the concert of the previous year, with the two saxophones dominating, no vocals and less varied. The comparatively short track “Electric fun fair” could be heard already on “Electrip”, the two songs with overlength “I can’t wait” and “Xholenium” had never previously been released on any record. The CD cover shows the Altena emblem, the impressive castle that – with its dungeon, towers, illuminated well shaft, museum and the oldest youth hostel of Germany – is a great attraction for visitors (http://www.burg-altena.de).

XHOL — Essen 1970 (1970-1999) Two Version | WV + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Xhol’s sound was a mix of jazz-rock and psychedelia. The band from Wiesbaden and former Xhol Caravan stood out for their pretty lengthy improvisations holding barely any vocals. The band became quite well-known with their two LPs released on Ohr. On Saturday, October 24, 1970, they performed at the third Essen Pop & Blues Festival at the Gruga hall. At that time, Hansi Fischer, one of the founders, had already gone on to Embryo. The whole festival had been recorded semi-professionally on soundboard by Roland Verheyen, an assistant to the promoter Konrad Mallison. The event’s master tapes are partly preserved. Lavishly remastered the CD provides a quite acceptable sound, although the drums seem to be too loud. Xhol’s gig had been divided into four pieces blending perfectly into each other. GOD

XHOL CARAVAN — Electrip (1969-2000) Two Version | FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Xhol Caravan from Wiesbaden were one of the first and most prominent underground bands in Germany. They were part of the students’ movement and at the spearhead of the development towards psychedelic music. Emerging in 1969 as successors of Soul Caravan, they only recorded one 7"-single "Planet Earth" / "So down" (Hansa 14371 AT) and one LP "Electrip" (Hansa 80099 IU), both in the same year of 1969. In 1995, "Electrip" was released on a cheaply produced bootleg CD (Germanofon 941066), but Garden of Delights’ legal re-release contains, for the first time, Xhol Caravan’s complete published works. Next to a detailed band history in English and German, the coloured booklet of 32 pages also includes many photographs and illustrations. After shortening their name to Xhol, the band released two further LPs, both on the legendary Ohr label. GOD

XHOL CARAVAN — Altena 1969 (1969-2006) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

In the time between the recordings and the release of their 7" single, Xhol Caravan from Wiesbaden had a gig in the nice small town of Altena (Sauerland) in 1969. The concert was professionally recorded by the event promoter Heinz Bonsack; the tapes were given to the artists. The sound can hardly be criticized, it was very well done. In order to avoid producing an unwieldy and expensive double CD, some few minutes of the gig were left out. With a full 80 minutes, the CD is packed to its limit. The announcements, given in their original form and length, brilliantly convey the atmosphere of the event. The group’s soul roots – no longer present on “Electrip” – can still be made out in some of this album’s passages. Vocals are playing a dominant role. Core of the gig was the “Freedom opera”, lasting for almost one hour, which can be heard in full length. GOD

XHOL CARAVAN — Hamburg 1969 (2022) FLAC (tracks), lossless

Xhol Caravan from Wiesbaden played an idiosyncratic blend of psychedelia and jazz-rock that was far ahead of its time. They are best known for their legendary LP "Electrip" from 1969. On 24.7.1969, a few weeks before the LP recordings, Xhol Caravan played at the well-known Jazzhouse in the Brandstwiete in Hamburg. The gig was extensively recorded and broadcast by NDR. The CD, which is full to the brim with almost 80 minutes of playing time, was pulled from the station's mother tapes. The sound is accordingly flawless. It is remarkable that keyboarder Öcki von Brevern, who usually only played the organ, sits here exceptionally at a Fender Rhodes piano. GOD

OS MUNDI — Sturmflut (1973-2008) Two Version | WV (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless

Os Mundi from Berlin became known because of their two LPs on Metronome and Brain. In 1975, when they had almost reached the period of breaking up, their guitarist Udo Arndt was doing a practical training in the studio of a broadcasting station and invited his friends there to make some free-of-charge recordings in order to practice. The recording sessions took place with changing line-ups, together with guest musicians, e. g. from Agitation Free. Some rather softened jazz-rock without vocals was played, which sounds very clean and has now been released for the first time. Additionally there are three other studio recordings on the CD and two RIAS tracks. In the booklet the history of Os Mundi is given in detail, with a lot of pictures, exact discographies, cover reproductions, etc. It is so to speak the missing part in the group’s catalogue of works.

Siddhartha, named after a novel by Hermann Hesse, were formed in 1973 in Korntal near Stuttgart. They performed an intelligent mix-ture of progressive and art rock influenced by psychedelia and folk. Although their 1975 album is called "Weltschmerz" all songs contain English lyrics except for "Weit weg". It was released in a limited edition of 400 copies and is now one of the most sought-after collectors’ items. A thirty minute demo tape by Siddhartha which was recorded after the release of their album has disappeared and has not yet been found. As no live gigs were recorded no additional tracks could be added to this CD issue. One of the best CDs in this series. GOD

MISSUS BEASTLY — Missus Beastly (1970-2002) RM | FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Missus Beastly from Herford were among the most famous German psychedelic bands, with the most confusing history of all of them. Their first LP released on CPM in 1970 - without any title, just like the second LP in 1974 - had a beautiful red cover artwork and is traded today at around US$700. A certain Henry C. From, pretending to be the band’s manager, flutist and drummer, arranged for a re-issue, which was released under the title of "Nara asst incense" (OPP 5-32) with the same tracks in a different order and with a totally new cover artwork. When no legal action was taken against him, this man had the cheek to embark on further fraudulent ventures by recording another two LPs and releasing them under the stolen name of Missus Beastly. On top of that, a bootleg CD of "Nara asst incense" was released by Germanofon. GOD

MISSUS BEASTLY — Bremen 1974 (1974-2006) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

The first two LPs of Missus Beastly did not have a title, a circumstance causing considerable confusion. The first one appeared on CPM in 1970, the second on Nova in 1974. Meanwhile, both have been released as CDs on Garden of Delights. On September 2nd, 1974, shortly after putting out their second LP, Missus Beastly had a gig in the Bremen Post-Aula. The concert was broadcast by Radio Bremen in their program “Jazz live”. Luckily, the master tape was kept by the station over the decades and was made available for the CD release. The three long tracks are not to be heard on any Missus Beastly LP. Keyboarder Dieter Miekautsch had meanwhile left the group; instead, the great guitarist Eddy Marron – well-known for playing with Vita Nova and Dzyan and his long-standing co-operation with Peter Giger – had joined them.

MISSUS BEASTLY — Dr. Aftershave And The Mixed-Pickles (1976-2011) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

"Dr Aftershave and the mixed-pickles” (April 00001) was Missus Beastly’s third album, which once more presented some solid jazz rock, mostly instrumental. It was at the same time the first album to be released on April, the new self-distributing label run by Missus Beastly, Ton Steine Scherben, Embryo, and Sparifankal. The LP was recorded in the well-known Stuttgart Zuckerfabrik studio (a former sugar refinery) at the beginning of 1976. The two CD bonus tracks were recorded at the Vlotho festivals (“Umsonst und draußen” [outside and for free]) 1976 and 1977. At that time, they were presented on the annual festival LPs. “Dr. Aftershave” was actually planned to be released on CD years ago, but some unexpected obstacles caused a long delay. The fourth and last Missus Beastly LP, “Space guerilla” from 1978, will soon be released on CD, again provided with bonus tracks. GOD

MISSUS BEASTLY — Space Guerilla (1978-2015) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Instrumental jazz-rock, recorded perfectly in the Stuttgart sound studio Zuckerfabrik in April 1978. Its style resembles that of its predecessor, “Dr. Aftershave and the mixed-pickles”. “Space guerilla” (Schneeball 00011) was then the fourth and last LP by Missus Beastly. All of the eight tracks were written by the band members themselves. The two bonus tracks were taken from sampler LPs: the first one, from the sampler “Umsonst & draußen – Porta Westvlothica 78”, was drawn from the master tape; the second one was taken from “Rock gegen rechts” (1979). The album at hand is actually the first CD release of “Space guerilla”. The 32-page booklet contains a detailed band history, an accurate discography including cover and label reproductions, photographs, etc. Thus, the series of CD releases of Missus Beastly material has practically been completed.
