swr vol. 5

Kollektiv are well known because of their 1973 lp on brain label, produced by conny plank. On these unreleased recordings also from ´73 they play an incomparable, unmistakeable sound with echoes of organisation and early kraftwerk - spacey but melodic, elevated yet rocking, innovative - progressive and consequent in the realisation of intent, forging new musical territory without denying their roots.
