First reissue of the debut album from 1971 by this German progressive rock group (the title is in reference to an album their previous incarnation, the Royal Servants). Notable as one of the first bands from this scene to sing in native German, parts of this could be comparable to Necronomicon. The hard-to-forget cover illustration features a picture of a chicken standing in a frying pan -- in the seventies things like this were called "outrageous". "It offered a typically German progressive blend, drawing equally from heavy rock, folk, jazz and classical. The six tracks were cleverly arranged, with rich instrumentation and sudden shifts of tempo." -- Dag Erik Asbjornsen.
