Papa Zoot Band "SWF Session" CD

In 1973/1974 Papa Zoot Band played all over Germany, mainly in clubs but also on festivals (German Pop Meeting) 1st and 2nd February 1974 in Essen, Grugahalle. Titles 1 and 4 were recorded live at SWF-Studio U1 in Baden Baden on April 13, 1973. Titles 5 and 10 were recorded at "Bunker", the bands rehearsal room in Frankfurt. They played a very melodic sound but with a sense of drama comparable to Nektar, Eloy or Jane. Outstanding 20 minutes titles "Fly away" could be a long track by "Pink Floyd of the Meddle/ Wish you were here/ Animals"-era. Characteristic for the bands sound are especially the swirling organ sound played by Ex-Nosferatu organ-player Tammy Grohe. These recordings show Papa Zoot Band during their best period. Hard to believe, that there was no record company to give them a contract. The sound of the CD is brilliant. All titles were remastered from the original master tapes. CD comes with comprehensive booklet and rare photos.
