The place: Hamburg, Germany. The band: FRUMPY. After their enormous debut All will be changed this band geared into full throttle. Their second album, simply called 2, consists of four tracks only, but what monsters they are. Often shelved under Krautrock with all the other german obscurities of the early 70ies, they were something else. Bluesrock at its finest topped with a female voice you will never forget. French Keyboard-Master Jean-Jaques Kravetz is joined here by Drummer Carsten Bohn, Bassist Karl-Heinz Schott, Guitarist Rainer Baumann and Vocalist Inga Rumpf. Best Tracks: All of them! Good Winds, How the Gypsy was born, Take care of Illusion and finally Duty. Released in 1971.
