TRIP - CD TRIP

Popis - TRIP:
Created for Austrian television, 'Trip' was an early '70s 'pop-opera' that revolves around the idea of a 'black messiah' in the modern age. In tune with the youth's concerns of the time, 'Trip' had a strong impact in Austria, where the extremely rare soundtrack-LP was issued in 1972. Spanning funk, pop, acid jazz and gospel, performed with electric guitar, flute, organ, sitar and more, it has been frequently sampled in recent years (most notably the epic breakbeat in Sunlounger's 'White Sand') and makes its CD-debut here. Produced by Fatty George and Silke Schwinger, the music featured both Austrian and German vocalists, including Ronny Williams, Su Kramer, Franklin Summers, Julia Migenes und Jürgen Marcus, many of whom previously had been part of various German casts of the hippie musical 'Hair'.
