We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end.

We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow.

TOP MINT COPY and a mighty hard to find 2-LP set in custom designed laminated gatefold found only here...

Completely filled with early 70's sci-fi acid adventures that work the head-space -- rockin' the higher cosmos with delightful flowing keys, twittering electronics and San Francisco sound styled guitar navigations ...featured here the legendary trippy AFENDSTUND and EINSJAGER AND SIEBENJAGER in their entirety ... that's right, 4 sides of electrified cosmos from the pioneering Kraut-psych era ...

Sides One & Two: "HOSIANNA MANTRA"

A truly exceptional album in Popol Vuh's discography, not least because of the ethereal, haunting vocal contributions by female Djong Yun, creating a sound that was at least a decade ahead of its time - the combination of ghostly female vocals and shimmering, delicate musical performances are cerebral and the music carries vibrations of spiritual harmony...

- Florian Fricke / piano, harpsichord
- Conny Veit / guitar
- Robert Eliscu / oboe
- Djong Yun / vocals
- Klaus Wiese / tambura
- Fritz Sonnleitner / violin

1972 Hosianna Mantra.... Popol Vuh leader Florian Fricke pioneered the use of synthesizers in German rock, but by the time of Hosianna Mantra he had abandoned them. Hosianna Mantra focuses on organic instrumentation. Conny Veit contributes electric guitar, but other than that, Fricke pulls the plug and builds the album around violin, tamboura, piano, oboe, cembalo, and Veit's 12-string, often with female Djong Yun's haunting voice hovering above the arrangements. As the album's title suggests, Fricke conceived of Hosianna Mantra as a musical reconciliation of East and West, a harmonization of seemingly opposed terms, combining two devotional music traditions. That notion of cultural hybridity resonates throughout. On "Kyrie" droning tamboura, simple piano patterns, ethereal, gull-like guitars, and yearning oboe ebb and flow before coalescing in a passage of intensity and release.

Sides 3 and 4 = the great 1974 Einjager & Siebenjager by POPOL VUH, fits right in with the Kosmiche Musik label centering on higher key washes of serene, flowing, psychedelic laced progressive guitar and keys adventures....

- Florian Fricke / piano, spinet
- Daniel Fichelscher / acoustic & electric guitars, percussion
- Djung Yun / vocals

One of our favourite Popol Vuh albums. This can be krautrock, but is (still now) lighter and fresher than water…

« Released in 1974, Einsjäger & Siebenjäger is a psychedelic laced electric-rock entrenchment for Popol Vuh. Florian Fricke's keys run like flowing water with large chord voicings that ripple throughout each composition. In addition, Daniel Fichelscher's electric guitar is more present and picks up where (ex-GILA) Conny Veit's left off, taking the bluesy space rock solo style into psychedelic territory by incorporating Eastern scales into the main body of his blues phrasing.

There are five short compositions on the first side, which merely prepare the listener for the mind-blowing title cut, which takes up the entirety of side two. Here, in addition to the swirling organic percussion and pianism of Fricke and the loping, often singing guitar lines that repeat hypnotically with rock & roll tension, the vocals of the amazing female, Djong Yun, become the catalyst for the other musicians to spiral off into extended improvisations. This is certainly one of the most beautiful albums Popol Vuh issued in the 1970s, and remains a watermark for their trademark of melding beauty and free-flowing composition...
