Papa Zoot Band - SWF-Session 1973 (2011) Long Hair - LHC00108

 

MP3/320Kbs/196MB
Prog Rock

Great lost band from Frankfurt, Germany. In 1973/1974 Papa Zoot Band played all over Germany, mainly in clubs but also on festivals. Titles 1 to 4 were recorded live at SWF-Studio U1 in Baden Baden on April 13, 1973. Titles 5 to 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 nearly 18 minute titles "Fly away" could be a long track. Characteristic for the bands sound are especially the swirling organ sound played by Ex-Nosferatu organ-player Reinhard "Tamy" Grohé. 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.
