Your right Baldy I kinda see the vocals as another
instrument on that album....ie Popol Vuh, Between,
Tri Atma etc....

How about 70's german instrumentals?
Anyone familar with some of the best?

electronic......
Roedelius - Wenn der Sunwind Weht
Wolfgang Bock - Cycles
Albert Vondeyen - Atmosphere
AR and the Machines - Die Grune Reise
Gunter Schickert - Samtvogel
Eberhard Schoener - Bali Agung
Between - And the Waters Opened

fusion
Thirsty Moon - Youll Never Come Back
La Dusseldorf - same
Pell Mell - Marburg
Missus Beastly - Dr. Aftershave and the Mixed Pickle
Morpheus - Rabenteuer
Aera - Humanium est
Doldinger - same
Deuter - Aum
Virus - Revelation

most of these are better than 90% of the Canterbury
scene albums released from the 70's.

Bali-Agung is not instrumental though; there is a lot of singing on it, and even a fairy tale told (in Balinesian, of course).
the name of the Roedelius album is "Wenn der Südwind weht", if I remember right.
Aera is already in the archives

A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival. Ceterum censeo principiis obsta
