Upbeat Kraut

As I've stated before, about 1/5 of all the 290-X artisits on the list spawn from Germany and the Krautrock movement. This week's offering is 13 of my favorite examples thereof...

No Show this Week...

Due to a scheduling mix-up I couldn't get into the building again, so no show was broadcast or recorded...

Rock ~N~ Jass

....and...it's...BACK to the ""normal"", NON- alphabetical meanderings through the Nurse With Wound list here on the irregular, where I've decided to try as much as I can to theme each weeks' show somehow, be it through style, personnel, year, country, theme, sex... whatever. This week as the Post's title suggests it's upbeat Rocky and Jassy artists being offered for your perusal to christen the once-again non stringently formatted incarnation back into being...

NWW List A-Z Installment #35

This last installment of our A-Z extravaganza features only four tracks (as that's all the artists left here), but I'm including a special piece that inspired the Beatles at the end to fill the final hour. So we've got one of the several bands that was also a commune/cult, a Yuyulating Yoko (by FAR the most irritating if not inaccessible piece I've yet to offer), French weirdness and finally we end with a Krautrock group...
