Out of Focus - Selftitled (1971)


Out of Focus - Selftitled

Out of Focus is a progressive rock band from Germany. They are also mentioned as a Krautrock band as all others from the era, but I do not like the term. This selftitled album is actually their second, unfortunately this is the only one that I have in the archive. Prog lovers, gather around!



Album information:

01 - What Can A Poor Boy Do (But To Be A Streetfighting Man)
02 - It's Your Life
03 - Whispering
04 - Blue Sunday Morning
05 - Fly Bird Fly
06 - Television Programm

Band information:

Out Of Focus was a German "Krautrock" rock fusion band, formed in late-1968 in Munich, existing 5 years or so. They took their name from a Blue Cheer track, but had also been listening to Soft Machine and Xhol Caravan, and rapidly established a distinctive style blending rock and jazz, psychedelic overtones. A unique facet was the profound socio-political awareness of Moran Neumüller's songs. Although typically Munich styled (with Embryo and Sahara connections) they are often compared to Canterbury fusion and Scandinavian jazz-rock acts.

  1. A masterpiece of an album by one of the most amazing groups to come out of Germany. all of their 3 official studio releases are a 'must have' for any music lovers, and their self titled here is one of my most beloved albums. Pure heaven.
