Ejwuusl Wessahqqan
2013 Edition. Reissue of ultra-rare 1975 German underground record. Ejwuusl Wesshaqqan were a Munich-based band acquainted to Amon Düül and with a similar style. The music certainly resonates with some of the best German stoned-out vibe, but there's a very organic sense of evolution to the music. A special characteristic of their style is the absence of vocals and guitar which were replaced by the self-made seven string filouphone. The original LP had been pressed in a limited edition of …

Like the 1965 version, it does start with the "clapping" sequence, but in this performance the transition from "audienc…
