Artist:	THIRSTY MOON
Title:	Thirsty Moon
Label:	LONG HAIR (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$21.00
Catalog #:	LHC 052CD

"Originally released in 1972 on famous German label Brain, this is truly a jewel of German progressive rock. The seven band members use elements of jazz as a means of spontaneous expression and melt them together with the aggressiveness and rhythm of rock! Comparisons with Kollektiv and Xhol were made, but doesn't really do justice to the band's music. The sound is unique. Among Thirsty Moon's characteristics were massive use of percussion and electric piano in dynamic arrangements, heavy guitar riffs, ranging from soft, mellow atmospheres to psychedelic outbursts with reversed tapes and phasing effects. Comes with one never-released before bonus track and comprehensive booklet including liner notes by member Jürgen Drogies. Digitally remastered from the original mastertape. A true prog-Krautrock masterpiece."

Title:	You'll Never Come Back
Label:	LONG HAIR (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$21.00
Catalog #:	LHC 053CD

"This is Thirsty Moon's second album on famous German label, Brain. Originally released in 1973. Despite the fact that their first album is accepted as a classic one, many progressive rock music lovers appreciate You'll Never Come Back as the the band's best effort. On this album, Thirsty Moon developed their unique sound. No other band has so completely captured the elusive phenomena inherent in acid-rock and placed it so effectively in a jazz-rock format. Thirsty Moon's sound is a mirror ball of images surrounding the listener. This is one of the best albums of that time. Comes with one never-released before bonus track and comprehensive booklet including liner notes by member Jürgen Drogies. Digitally remastered from mastertapes."

Title:	Blitz
Label:	LONG HAIR (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$21.00
Catalog #:	LHC 054CD

"This is Thirsty Moon' s 3rd album, originally recorded in 1974, released early 1975 on famous German label Brain. All instruments were played by band founders Jürgen and Norbert Drogies. The album is far away considered as a solo album, the Drogies brothers created a true 'band-sound' following the traces of the first two albums but without the jazz influence. The sound on Blitz is more rock-oriented added with electronic loops and synthesizer playing, still based on great guitar playing and varied drum playing. Blitz still contained many unmistakable elements typical of Thirsty Moon. For the first time released a CD remastered from master tape, it comes with three bonus tracks including one Blitz recording session outtake and both titles of 1977 released 7" 'I'll Sing Your Song' / 'Caught.' With a 12-page booklet, never seen before photos and liner notes by band leader Jürgen Drogies. A must for all lovers of Thirsty Moon and Krautrock."

Title:	I'll Be Back -- Live '75
Label:	LONG HAIR (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$21.00
Catalog #:	LHC 055CD

"Released for the first time, this is a recording of a concert Thirsty Moon gave on 29th May 1975 in their hometown of Bremen, Germany. The program shows titles from the beginning of the band and new tracks neither released on an album before nor after the concert. The band, now as a four piece, played for their life dominated by guitar and keyboard playing. Improvisation on old titles and new songs show the band at its best. The original tape was restored and the sound is surprisingly good. Comes with fully colored 12-page booklet, never-seen-before photos and liner notes by Jürgen Drogies."
