Complete your Popol Vuh collection. Not sure where the complaints come from. I got my copy a week or so before release from Wah Wah's store in Barcelona and it sounds great.

Utilizing the Chorensemble der Bayerischen Staatsoper and the soprano saxophone stylings of Chris Karrer, Popol Vuh - down to a three-piece with vocalist Renate Knaup fronting the choir, Fricke on piano and voice, and guitarist Daniel Fichelscher holding down the drum chair as well, this is a huge recording.

Popol Vuh. Sei Still, Wisse Ich Bin, 1981.

This album and "Agape-Agape" are vocal-oriented, often choral works redolant of spirtual music from many cultures, unapologetically mystical and very beautiful. This has been one of the most difficult POPOL VUH records for me to get into. I love Florian's spiritual music but this seems to take it too far for my tastes. The focus is on the choirs and vocals over the usually beautiful, pastoral instrumental work i'm used to hearing from this man. Renate Knaupe adds her vocals and we also get some guest sax from Chris Karrer.

Popol Vuh was founded by mastermind Florian Fricke in Munich in 1970 and are known as pioneers of electronic music as well as the predecessors of the 90's ambient and trance genre. Florian Fricke was one of the first German musicians who worked with a MOOG III, an instrument which created a very new and special sound which was profiled on Affenstunde. This album quickly became a milestone and practically created a whole new genre. The name and the book Popol Vuh stems from Incan mythology and is the memory of the evolution of humanity. This reissue of Popol Vuh’s Sei Still, Wisse Ich Bin contains the rare and previously unreleased bonus track King Minos III from the original studio session to the cycle (part I-III) in 1976. The recording descended from the most rock orientated phase of Popol Vuh and is a historical document of the German 70s Krautrock.
