Bemerkungen / Comments:
'In Den Gärten Pharaos' was originally issued in 1971, this time by Pilz, yet it wasn't precisely on the folk vein that Herr Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser was trying to keep the label into by those days. It's sound drinks directly from the same waters that brought Affenstunde, although there is a clear move towards some less dark passages, and the use of church organ as the main instrument, plus a first introduction into the ethnic music elements that Popol Vuh would soon mix into their cauldron bring new light to the sound.
Reissued from the master tapes in quality vinyl pressing, full glory laminated gatefold cover and featuring bonus, an insert with liners and photos. Liner notes by Popol Vuh expert Dolf Mulder.
Wah Wah proudly announces the upcoming ULTIMATE reissues of the Popol Vuh discography!
Their first 5 LPs will be available in luxury vinyl editions in September 2013.
Made in coperation with Florian Fricke's family and SPV. High quality repros of the first five LPs by Popol Vuh with extra goodies: rare bonus tracks, insert with liners & rare period photos, bonus 7' on Hosianna Mantra, quality laminated gatefold sleeves faithfully reproducing the original artwork, mastered from the original tapes - top class legit editions for one of the big names in kraut music.
Popol Vuh, led by pianist and keyboardist Florian Fricke and with their name taken from the Maya mythology, were formed in 1969 and stayed active until Fricke's death in 2001.
In 1969 Fricke joined forces with Holger Trülzsch (percussion) and Frank Fielder (synthesizer, recording engineer and technical assistance) and they soon became one of the most interesting bands of kraut music's avant-garde, being pioneers in sounds that have later been categorised as ambient music, space / cosmic music or New Age music.
Other influential musicians from the kraut scene have been involved in the project through the years, so names like Djong Yun, Conny Veit (leader himself of another kraut legendary formation, Gila - actually Gila's last line-up was Popohl Vuh plus singer Sabine Merbach), Daniel Fichelscher (Amon Düül II, Gila), Klaus Wiese or Robert Eliscu (also a member of Between) are found at one moment or another in any of the 20 albums that Popol Vuh recorded through during its lifespan, which also include soundtracks to films by German director Werner Herzog like Aguirre or Nosferatu, among others.
Wah Wah is very proud to offer these gorgeous reissues of Popol Vuh's first five LPs,
which are issued in full luxury and each in a limited edition of 500 copies only!
