I.D. Company ~ Germany


I.D. Company. 1970 HorZu

Split album between two soon-to-be well known female vocalists. Side 1 features Frumpy's Inga Rumpf and her masculine vocal style. The music is a combination of blues, jazz, and Indian music - and sounds like some of the better moments of Krokodil's An Invisible World Revealed. Dagmar Krause's side is considerably more experimental, foreshadowing her later work with Slapp Happy, Art Bears, and Henry Cow among others. The music follows in a similar manner, and is clearly going for a free jazz sound. It's all a bit much to be honest, but fans of unhinged music + vocals will love it. 

Priority: none
