The “World” of Krautrock
Possibly the worst, low-budget, 90′s cover ever.
And it couldn’t be a less comprehensive representation of Krautrock as a genre.
(if I remember correctly, this label had an extensive series of equally bizarre “World of” comps..)
However….
I rediscovered it in my dusty collection of CDs, and it rocked my ‘world’
I can’t believe that Wallenstein’s Mother Universe and Birth Control’s Operation aren’t widely regarded as some of the best albums of the 70′s.
Thank you, weird, German, 90′s comp for bringing these albums into my life.

Well, I’M officially old realizing that Houdini was released nearly 20 yrs ago…
Nevertheless, on the off chance there’s another person out there that is serious about fitness AND Melvins
This is the best song for interval cardio…and the best use of a pinata and chainsaw in a music video.

Daryl Hall-Sacred Songs
Any artist who steps away from a mainstream pop career to produce an album of songs with occult overtones and weird Fripp soundscapes is obviously awesome.
Hall’s label, RCA refused to release the album for fear of alienating his audience…
If that’s not proof of a good album, you must have reached this blog by accident.
Buy it now.
