Hairy Chapter - Can't Get Through (1971)

Hairy Chapter - Can't Get Through (1971) (Germany, Krautrock, Psychedelic )


German heavy psych. Long, jam-y songs that bring the riffage and the solos, plus some killer drumming, and none of the wannabe-bluesy cheese that plagued a lot of their peers. Smoke a spliff and listen to this somewhere sunny.

A group of Bonn (Bonn, North Rhine-Westphalia), recorded 3 albums: Electric Sounds For Dancing (1969) - a group called The Chaparall Electric Sound Inc., Eyes (1970) and Can't Get Through (1971). The record shows a typical German Eyes acid fumes krautroka.Released in early 1971 Can't Get Through contains five tracks that are built based on heavy guitar jam. Improvisation became refined, brighter melodies, riffs even tougher ... Albums produced by Dieter Dierks,
