During their existence as a band, Agitation Free managed to release only
two LPs: "Malesch" (1972) and "Agitation Free 2nd" (1973), both on
Vertigo with the swirled label, both being collectors’ items today. With
their spheric soundscapes, both albums are timeless classics and justly
listed among the top 100 German Rock records by the Freeman brothers in
their anthology "The crack in the cosmic egg". Master works, after all,
can be created without the help of vocals. An impressive seven CDs have
been released since the band split up, which shows how good they were
and how popular they are today. Their second effort, featuring a welcome
mellotrone, is probably better than their first LP. Although influences
of early Pink Floyd, Ash Ra Tempel and eastern music are not deniable,
their recordings give evidence of a strong originality. GOD

AGITATION FREE — 2nd (1973) Three Version | APE + FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless
AGITATION FREE — Last (1976) Three Version | FLAC (image+.tracks+.cue), lossless
1973 live album LAST, the final official release before Agitation Free's
1999 reunion, the group builds upon the psychedelic jams that
characterized its two previous recordings, giving increased priority to
slow-building electronic textures and soundscapes. Opening cut
"Soundpool," the first of the album's three recordings, marries
electronic orchestration with a extended guitar jam. "Laila II,"
originally from 1973 album 2ND, is teased to epic length. Sidelong
closer "Looping" is given over to hypnotic modulations, ending the first
phase of Agitation Free's career less with a bang than a whisper, or a
drone. Stephen May
