Various Artists perform in the German Rock Offers 1, first of a series of three albums of that name, in 1976







As a progster you are sure to start 'salivating like a pavlov dog' to use Mick Jagger's immortal words when you see the artist lineup on this compilation from 1976 Germany:  Tritonus, Pancake, Octopus (of "Boat of thoughts" fame, of course, not the "Thaerie Wiighen" Norwegian one), Cannock ("Waiting for the night"), Michael Bundt...  but the best tracks for me are really the no-name bands, like Mass and Live.

It's a real mixed bag, with the Tritonus entry being derived from their suite about the day-- I forgot which one of their albums that was.  But I'm sure everyone will enjoy hearing something new!
