guru guru

I think the one I listen the most to is Kan Guru. Very experimental and the first one with more refined studio tricks courtesy of the late Connie Plank. Also because it drives so many of my friends nuts. They`re like kids who won`t eat their broccoli. One of my girlfriend`s friends in high scool thought I had mental problems when I played the whole thing at a house party. This girl seriously thought that should see a shrink. I forked out about $50 for "30 Jarre Live". Worth every penny. I just saw UFO going for $47 at HMV in Montréal. I`m listening to Don`t Call Us We Call You at the moment.

Just managed to obtain a copy of PSY. No kidding, they definitely haven`t lost it. Wah! Wah! is great. Lots of "hendrixy" guitar.

Good band, specially his first four a lbums

Thanks for that - insight is always a blessing and I'm grateful.

Love the drum sound throughout and the outro sounds like part of a Gun n Roses outtake to me...   I've been cheffing all summer and it's been a favourite in the kitchen with the other guys.   Next Time I'll F*** the Duck has become a catchphrase and we don't even have duck on the menu.   Quack Quack.

Perhaps the shortest lived Guru Guru lineup which lasted only a few months. It`s sort of the black sheep of their catologue. I`m sort of glad that was a one off for Guru Guru. I`ve talked to a lot of people who have been dissappointed with other Guru Guru albums after hearing this one especially  fusion heads. So I always have to warn them that this is not typical of Guru Guru`s output. All the excitement over this particular album was no doubt caused by the fiery guitar work of  Houschang Nejadepour who had previously played with Kraftwerk and German  jazz rock band Eiliff and more recently with world music pianist Pamela Arthur. I love the fact that mani never lost any of his wackiness which can be heard right up to the present day. I love all the albums. One of my faves of all time. Mani is a veritable living legend.

i have UFO and Hinten, great psyched-up Krautrock power!!!  

Of course not. Mani & Co were never in it for the money and were ripped off left right and center at times. I'm going to try and get it directly through Fusion III.

I don't use the internet for anything which involves money. Too many rip off artists out there. i listened to some samples. Worth waiting for as always. I don't even trust the mailman anymore. The clowns at Canada Post loses so much mail. Someone recently tried to send me a CD twice from the United States TWICE and both times it wasn't delivered.

Trying to get PSY. Can't find a store that can order it yet. I don't deal over the internet.

Also i happen to listen more to recent Guru Guru albums than their  first ones.
