For fans of Guru Guru, Faust, Embyo, Kraan – all three albums produced by Conny Plank, including the German-language debut version of “Trauma” in one set – detailed liner notes by Klemen Breznikar, including a current statement by guitarist Ad Ochel alongside Can and Faust, one of the first important Krautrock bands; their German-language debut, released in 1970, is German Krautrock history.The debut album by Cologne-based psychedelic rock band Gomorrha was released in 1970 on the Cornet label, which was distributed by BASF.However, the band rejected the original German-language version and re-recorded the album with English lyrics and a new singer, Peter Otten.A year later, it was released under the title Trauma.In 1972, I Turned to See Whose Voice It Was followed on Brain, after which the four musicians went their separate ways.For example, Ali Claudi enjoyed worldwide success as a jazz and blues guitarist, working with artists such as Bill Coleman and Big Joe Turner.Composer and guitarist Ad Ochel became a successful architect and is delighted about the re-release of the three albums produced by Conny Plank on CD and in digital format.He recalls: ‘Many critics wrote about the apocalyptic mood of our last LP.But when I look at the state of the world today, I am overcome by an uneasy feeling that often keeps me awake at night.’
