GOMORRHA-I TURNED TO SEE WHOSE VOICE IT WAS-

This album was released in 1972 and the last album from Krautrock kings of Gomorrha.

Barely recognized back in the day the impact from this album always get full acclaim when it comes to top lists of the 70´s most influential prog bands.

Hard driven riffs mixed with heavy dosage of english blues, organ and gritty vocals gives this record an unbelieveble tour de force of Krautrock/prog smash in the face.

Great guitar solos makes an extra cool dimension to explore so, hats of to guitarists Ade Ochel and Ali Claudi. The producer is Conny Plank, a legend in Krautrock at Brain records and this is a good piece of work. Some misfits here and there but the overall result is stunning. Great vocals, great guitarsound, an organ sounding like a racecar and the drums are just beautiful….Big smile, Big smile…

 And what about the drummer??

Helmut Pohl is one of the founding members of this outfit from Rhineland Germany. His great fowarding on the drums are in a league of its own. Drivin´the band in some complex tunes are a real treat for any drummer and to keep up in a technical, fast action, playing style is just hard candy adult style!!! Really great playing.

It´s easy to recommend you to buy this album. The cover doesn´t reveal much but as most good albums, don´t judge by the cover…this is a Diamond in the rough!!

This is one of the great Krautrock/prog/hard rock albums and it is difficult to find a comparison record from this time period.

The sad thing is that Gomorrha disbanded one year later and no one contuinued with music. Such a shame.
