Holy ****, how ****ing good is Frumpy!?
I always thought they were some lame-ass second tier Krautrock band.
They decidedly aren't.
This isn't Krautrock at all, they probably get lumped in there due to being German. This is some badass proggy heavy psych. Killer vocals (probably the best 70s female rock vocals I've ever heard), awesome organ and guitar, just overall rocking and beautiful stuff.
I could see Lisna and Plank digging this.

I've mentioned Frumpy here before. It's one of those bands that I grew up listening to and they were a real
sensation in Germany in the early 70s especially after that 2nd album. Inga Rumpf has actually expanded
her vocal range as she's gotten older - which is kinda weird if you think about it. I was the young guy with
the occasional crush on singers like her, Renate Knaup, and, of course, there's always the Brit, Jenny Haan:

Vintage Inga hits the sweet spot for me because she has this powerful voice but doesn't really engage in those rock histrionics that I often find incredibly annoying.

Instrumental jazzy Prog or proggy Fusion or whatever.
Great stuff.

Just on final track now. I really enjoyed the fusion parts of it and the mellower stuff but found the prog to be a bit annoying. I think maybe I’ve gotten too old and my heart isn’t really open to prog I don’t know already. I was thinking about it recently, and it’s been a long time since I really enjoyed a prog record I haven’t heard before.

Sounding more like a studio-jam by Traffic than full-on prog, Locomotura by Los Blops deserves more mentions on MB than the two it has received so far. Click, read, enjoy!

Speaking of Inga Rumpf, I have a lp CITY PREACHERS " FOLKLORE".
This is anything but prog.
Its AMERICAN-sound.... sorta Peter,Paul & Mary / Pete Seeger-type rubbish.

No date on the lp, but I'd guess maybe 1966.

Ryley Walker And Kikagaku Moyo - Deep Fried Grandeur (2021)

Quote:

“So, the group game together at Le Guess Who? Festival in Utrecht, Netherlands in 2018. I was asked by the organizers to find another group on the festival to collaborate with for a one off performance. I was immediately drawn to Kikagaku Moyo. We share similar guitar scuzz and riff heavy improvising when playing live. Seemed like the most fun and natural thing to do. I was in the middle of a european tour, so had my full backing band. So with KM and me, 9 mother ****ers total on stage wailing

It was a lot of SOUND. So we passed the live recordings off to cooper crain of CAVE and bitchin bajas to tweak the levels and add some sprinkles. He shaped the raw recordings into a cohesive piece that works for a 40 min slab. We had an afternoon of rehearsal and it mostly just drinking espresso, smoking cigs and saying "man, we'll be fine"

And it was great."
(Ryley Walker/Husky Pants Records)

Place is DEAD.

No prog-joy to be gained here.

Sucks.
