Wolfgang Riechmann‘s sole solo LP is a minor masterpiece of late 70’s German electronica, very much of a piece with Kraftwerk’s concurrent LPs but a bit more lush and psychedelic. In fact, Riechmann played with future Kraftwerk member Wolgang Flür and Neu’s Michael Rother in Spirits of Sound in the 1960s. What’s not so wunderbar is that Riechmann was stabbed to death in a bar brawl just three weeks before the release of this LP.
