Often lumped in with the Krautrock tag, krokodil were actually Swiss! Before they made the killer 'Invisible World' album they made this psych album with a strong West Coast feel, mixing various guitar led acid rock styles with sitar, tablas and dreamy improvised excursions. This official digipak reissue comes with three extra tracks and a poster booklet.... Really cool....
Reissue of the first album from 1969, originally issued by Liberty, by this Swiss Krautrock-aligned band, who went on to record 5 albums in total for UA and Bacillus by 1973. This reissue is from master tapes and includes bonus tracks. Packaged in a fold-out digipak with fold-out poster of notes/photos. First in a trilogy of reissues on Second Battle, this debut album features vocalist/pianist Hardy Hepp ("the Tom Jones of the Alps"??), who would no longer be with the group by the time they got around to releasing their more commonly acclaimed masterpiece An Invisible World Revealed. Blues-rock origins can be easily discerned here (Liberty apparently attempted to present them as Germany's answer to the Groundhogs).
