Lisa, if you ever find a better quality rip of this LP, I would be so eternally grateful. So impossible to find anywhere and ignored by its original label CBS. And I may be the world's biggest Xhol/Soul Caravan fan, although this debut album only hinted at the brilliance that was to come. At any rate, "Memories" could easily have been a top 40 hit in the US had it been released there, and their "Shotgun" is extremely far-out and maybe the best cover of that soul classic ever. Later on it became clear that Klaus Briest was the greatest Krautrock bassist of all time, truly the psychedelic James Jamerson, and the rest were all top class players as well. In my top 5 Kraut bands list along with Can, Faust, Amon Düül II and Neu!
