    Super suggestion, Tiger. Let's use the fact, that we come from different sides of this planet. I'll tell you about origins of the Krautrock here at Germany.
    German Rock Music´s first presence was felt in 1968; it was a movement that later became a worldwide influence on music. Acts such as Kraftwerk, Cluster, Faust, Amon Düül, Guru Guru, Can and Tangerine Dream, to name a few, tried what had not been done before: A new way of expression in music and lifestyle. They created a German underground scene that was not influenced by Anglo-American ideals. Other countries soon took an interest in this new music, the bands toured Europe and the U.S. in the early seventies and showed that they had enough self-confidence and potential to make it on an international level. Impressed by this, musicians like Eno and David Bowie claimed that they were fascinated by German bands like Kraftwerk and Cluster (who later recorded two albums with Eno). The will to experiment, produce sound collages, non-song structured music and noise must be seen nowadays as the birth of industrial-electronic music. Guru Guru was one of the most popular outfits in the seventies, as well as one of the most experimental ones! They are still on the road until today.

    Guru Guru-Ooga Booga-Bataclan March 10 1973
    Also included is a snipet from the show, of Guru Guru beginning "Der Elektrolurch" as the show ends.

    During the 60's..I was a great fan of The Rolling Stones,Moody Blues,
    Steppenwolf,Lovin Spoonful..and so many other groups..
    we all remember Monterey pop,Woodstock,Isle of man etc..
    in 1969 the movie Easy Rider came out..it became a classic movie..
    Steppenwolf's song *Born to be wild* became world known..
    in fact..I like this song from Steppenwolf as well..it's anti drugs..
    it's called the pusher..great video by the way...
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpoEmlxUPeQ

    You know I've smoked a lot of grass
    O' Lord, I've popped a lot of pills
    But I never touched nothin'
    That my spirit could kill
    You know, I've seen a lot of people walkin' 'round
    With tombstones in their eyes
    But the pusher don't care
    Ah, if you live or if you die

    God damn, The Pusher
    God damn, I say The Pusher
    I said God damn, God damn The Pusher man

    You know the dealer, the dealer is a man
    With the love grass in his hand
    Oh but the pusher is a monster
    Good God, he's not a natural man
    The dealer for a nickel
    Lord, will sell you lots of sweet dreams
    Ah, but the pusher ruin your body
    Lord, he'll leave your, he'll leave your mind to scream

    God damn, The Pusher
    God damn, God damn the Pusher
    I said God damn, God, God damn The Pusher man

    Well, now if I were the president of this land
    You know, I'd declare total war on The Pusher man
    I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he'd run
    Yes I'd kill him with my Bible and my razor and my gun

    God damn The Pusher
    Gad damn The Pusher
    I said God damn, God damn The Pusher man

    Hiya Tigerman,
    I wonder.. did you know that John Sabastian was not scheduled to play Woodstock.. they called him out of the audience and he walked up solo.. of course he became ultra famouse after that with Lovin' Spoonful.
    Bright Blessings

    Didn't John Sebastian wear and bring a bunch of psychedelic Tie-Dyed shirts to Woodstock? That was what popularized them.

    Hey, a Peninsula Person!!

    I agree... I was a huge fan of Mark Lindsay... so the band in person many times.

    I met Jim Valley several times, my father was a friend of his father.

    wow! this is probably some of the best music I've heard in a very long time besides the usual 60s artist who are also very good. Thank you to all for posting. I've added a lot of these to my favorites

    Peace, love and rock 'n' roll!

    The Kinks still performed until 96. Now they have solo careers. Search out Ray Davies
