FLOH DE COLOGNE 'Fliesbandbabys Beat-Show' LP (Spain, Wah Wah, Catalogue #LPS039) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited Wah Wah label LP edition (edition of 500 copies) of rare 1970 album (originally released as the first LP on the esteemed Ohr label) of crazed and complex psychedelic freak-rock from legendary German group Floh De Cologne.

(NOTE: LIMITED EDITION OF 500 COPIES ONLY!)

'Well known for their humorous and satyrical approach (in the style of similar troupes like The Fugs or The Mothers Of Invention) their 1970 Ohr debut was a freaky concoction of agit-prop satire and madness with relentless free jamming. Political agitation meets free-rock!!!'

'Outrageous and purely innovative, Floh De Cologne, since their inception in 1966 as a student cabaret and music band, constantly surprised, puzzled and always deliberately broke convention. Their elaborate stage shows, socio-political theatrical productions and pure musical innovation lead to obvious comparisons with the similarly radical Mothers Of Invention. Yet, whilst the Mothers were chiefly the vehicle of one musician, Floh De Cologne were a collective unit of creative musicians and actors, who continually dared to take chances, provoke and surprise their audience via a blend of rock, satire and theatre... With FLIESBANDBABYS BEAT-SHOW (the very first Ohr LP) they had changed considerably to a much more musical footing, with a complex rock suite blending many styles. Like all Floh De Cologne records it was another concept work, this time though it was a furiously aggressive anti-capitalist statement, running a whole gamut of musical styles, and features Floh De Cologne at their most psychedelic.' - The Crack In The Cosmic Egg
