Description

From the album Bremen 1971 (Germany, 1971).

EMBRYO are an acquired taste but once you have the taste you just can not get enough. In my days of expanding my music collection into the more obscure I snagged a copy of EMBRYO's live recording from their golden era (1971) and man I still have not recovered. Funny how things go sometimes. I'm a big fan of MISSUS BEASTLEY's self titled album from 1974, but when I heard their live album recorded by Bremen Radio it was even better. Well the oposite holds true for EMBRYO's live album recorded by Bremen Radio in 1971. I just can't get into it as much as the studio albums I have by them. Part of it might be that it was recorded in a high school gy. his was recorded sometime after their second album "Embryo's Rache".

This is an excellent early live recording from this group, done around the time of its second album, Embryo's Rache, and with all tracks taken from that record. Its a fascinating juxtaposition between the psychedelic jazz-rock of early embryonic Embryo and the embrace of ethnic music from around the world that characterized subsequent Embryo projects. It starts off with some tribal drumming, and moves onward into complex rhythms and lots of sax and flute solos and even a violin here and there.

Bremen 1971 is a jazz related rock music live album recording by EMBRYO released in 2003 on CD, LP/Vinyl and/or cassette. EMBRYO - Bremen 1971. Filed under Jazz Related Rock By EMBRYO.

Four track archive - unreleased live gig took place on September 23, 1971 in Bremen at the Leibnizplatz High School Gym for the (then) weekly Bremen Radio show - following the release of Embryo's second lp 'Rache' was put out. This CD is much better than what I was maybe expecting. Try To Be" starts off some rather uplifting tribal drum work and some superb flute playing as "Time - A) You Can't Wait - B) Evans Nuvola" continues the trip, but only more uptempo.

Very interesting to hear the original Embryo transforming into the second version and coming up with material rendered totally unlike the studio versions. This September 1971 recording documents: Hansi Fischer (flute), Christian Burchard (drums), Al Jones (guitar), Edgar Hofmann (sax, violin), Ralph Fischer (bass) playing four out of the six tracks from the then forthcoming EMBRYO'S RACHE, that's "Embryo's Revenge" to us.So, we have the power of the OPAL incarnation with one Al Jones taking up the guitar role and Hansi Fischer fusing in his distinctive style previously heard in Xhol. It amounts to a fiery blend that fills-in what was originally seen to be a big step in the Embryo sound. This is that missing link, and it is full of surprises, culminating in a really spectacular 26 expansion of Spain Yes, Franco Finished (a title that's not so obviously significant these days) which is amongst the greatest of Embryo freak-outs. Extraordinary though to the end!
