Description

Code III LP from 1974 called Planet Of Man.
Label is Delta Acustic 25-125-1.
Quality of item: Vinyl: Mint Cover: Mint.
Fold-out Cover. Listed in the Krautrock top 100 in "The crack in the cosmic egg" by Steve and Alan Freeman. Code III were never a proper band, but were an impromptu group created for an album dedicated to showcasing the amazing sound characteristics of the Kunstkopf Artificial Head Recording System. Principally, Code III were Berlin studio engineer Manfred Schunke and American multi-instrumentalist Ed Key. The music on PLANET OF MAN is a sonic depiction of the history of the Earth, from the void through to man's domination of the planet, and ultimately back to the void. A blend of atmospheric electronics with abstract use of voice and effects, via trippy folk and primeval percussives, onto a space-rock burn-out featuring Klaus Schulze at the drum stool, and returning to weird space music at the end. It all adds up to a remarkable and unique album. In addition to the LP, is the unique track "Walkin' By Train" featured on the KUNSTKOPF DIMENSIONEN sampler, which also has Klaus Schulze on drums, and is an extra piece recorded during the same sessions. Manfred Schunke (instruments, electronic effects, sounds, vocals), Ed Key (vocals, instruments), + Mary Key (vocals), Aparna Chakravarti (vocals, tamboura, harmonium), Klaus Schulze (drums)

I use the M/VG/G grading system in which the first grading is for the record and the second grading is for the sleeve. If you do not agree with the grading, the item can be returned and the money will be refunded.

Shipping from the Netherlands to outside Europe will be $10 for 1 vinyl disc, $14 for 2-3 vinyl discs and $18 for 4-8 vinyl discs. This will be by standard mail which takes about 2 weeks to reach you. Airmail will be more expensive. Priority shipment within Europe will be a little bit cheaper. I will always calculate the actual postage fees + US$ 1 for packaging materials.

I will pack very carefully. I will take the records out of the sleeve to prevent split-seams. I put all discs in inner sleeves with a soft inner plastic coating.
