YOU ARE VIEWING A REPRO OF THE VERY RARE AND HARD TO FIND LP BY GERMAN BAND SEASONS TITLED WIND, RELEASED ORIGINALLY IN 1971 ON PLUS 3 RECORDS!!!
Technically speaking, this is the second album of which this group of musicians is responsible the first being recorded under the name 'Corporal Ganders Fire Dog Brigade', minus lead-singer Leistner. Seasons, in my eyes, is a monster of the genre, for it combines a heavy Stooges rock sound complete with aggressive Iggy Pop-ish vocals, as well as a heavy dose of that Pink Floyd organ atmosphere ala Cirrus Minor. The album leads off with 'What Do We Do Now', a track combining both of the aforementioned influences, it shifts back and forth between straight forward aggressive rock and dreamy instrumental passages. The next track, 'Now Its Over' brings a softer mood to the album; it reminds me of 'I Talk To The Wind' by King Crimson in terms of atmosphere. Following this is the beautiful piano piece 'Romance' which sounds as if it were prepared for a silent film. "Can you see the wind if blowing" asks the powerful chorus of the track 'Springwind". This track teeters between softer verses and explosive choruses and is sure to get your foot a tappin'. 'Dear Little Friend' has a main riff which is sure to remind listeners of Mountain's 'Mississippi Queen', but I prefer Wind's balls-to-the-wall take on the riff and I am sure you will like it too. Finally, the album closes with the sixteen-minute 'Red Morningbird'. From its eerie acoustic guitar, vibes and harmonica opening to its equally eerie Cirrus Minor organ sound, to the primal rage Stooges rock, and its Saucerful-esque closing vocal section, this is a powerful track and should be heard.Musicians:
