10 words or less: 3rd and final album by KrautRock
legends

Elaboration: Recorded in 1973 with Florian Fricke of
Popul Vuh on Keyboards, this is a concept album based
on the book of the same name dealing with the genocide
of the native American people. The predominant sound
on this album is the acoustic Guitar of the leader
Conny Veit. That sound, coupled with the simpler song
oriented compositions give this album a distinctly
60's feel. The bulk of this album does not resemble
the typical German progressive sound of the 70's which
is traditionally associated with healthy doses of
jammy, SpaceRock freakouts though the longest tune,
track 5 does exemplify those qualities. Mellotron and
Moog are listed in the album credits but unfortunately
do not figure as prominently on the album as one would
expect. I'm afraid that I wouldn't classify this album
as a classic as it does not live up to the fertile
subject matter of it's title though I will say that
the 2nd half of the album does pick up and start to
get interesting by the last track. ~ L Perez
