VA - Folk and Rock (Germ., 78)



A beautiful VA album of folk rock from Germany, featuring well-known bands Aquarell, Hartleed, Lilienthal, and the awesome Emma Myldenberger, with each band playing 2-3 songs.  Fans of folk will surely be thrilled with this entry.  I was particularly impressed with the Emma songs (except the last one, which made me want to vomit) of course, we all know and love this group -- all reading this should (by now) be familiar with this band, and if not, I recommend you definitely dig into their discography.

Btw, several of these songs are interpretations of traditional folk songs. You will see on the scanned (lol!) insert which songs are written by the band and which are trad.

Thanks again to Sebastian and the growing bin records website for bringing this to our attention!
As samples, first the bizarrely-titled track from Hartleed:
Wok op fro + Schottentanz




And then, the Emma M. entry called Colchiques:

Hate to be off topic here, but what happened to search engine v. 2.0? I used it a whole lot the first time, and when it went back on line.. Any chance of a 3.0?

Hi, im from germany,"wok op fro" sounds like a dialect-joke, it means "woke up happy", for sure..
with best wishes
