It's German Prog Folk Time!
Bröselmaschine - Bröselmaschine (1971)
A bit more about it:
Languorous atmospheres, lovely vocals, iridescent melodies, and shimmering solos combine on Bröselmaschine's self-titled 1971 debut album, the apotheosis of the German folk-prog scene.
The quintet took their cue from England's Canterbury scene and even a traditional folk song, "Lassie," from that green and pleasant land.
The band's signature sound was derived from Jenni Schucker's delicate and at times ethereal vocals in harmony with Willi Kissmer's stronger tenor, and that sound took on a Teutonic tinge when the pair switched from English to German lyrics. But it was the group's extraordinary use of acoustic and electric guitars that cemented its reputation.
he music is gorgeous, but it's the relaxed atmospheres that truly entrance; there's not a forced note or extravagant moment within, with the music easily ebbing and flowing like water downhill.
The tracks are listed in the following order:
- Gedanken
- Lassie
- Gitarrenstück
- The Old Man's Song
- Schmetterling
- Nossa Bova
