RELEASE DATE
2/6/2006
First reissue of this one in many years; this is first Cluster (w/ a "C") album (following the 2 Kluster albums:
Klopfzeichen
&
Zwei-Osterei
), originally issued by Philips in, yes, 1971. The 2 equally classic albums that would follow this (
II
&
Zuckerzeit
) have pretty much always been available, but
71
has mostly languished (although it was reissued at times by Sky). Reissued here w/ original cover art (not the inferior Sky art), nice booklet of photos and new liner notes, no unnecessary bonus junk. Well done. "On the outer edge of German space rock,
Cluster '71
stands as a testament to minimalist 'cosmische' music. The three untitled tracks composed and performed by Moebius and Roedelius are exploratory, ever-changing pieces with focuses on guitar distortion and synthesizer wails, though each goes far beyond. This album deserves the many accolades it's been given, and holds up as an early landmark in the history of beatless ambience."
