We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow.

  • GERMANY - GREEN BRAIN - 1018 ( STEREO)

The legendary Brain label was set up in 1971 as a sub-label of Hamburg-based record label Metronome. The German heavy psych rock music scene was just evolving in 1969-1970 and the goal of the Brain label was to further talents in this field. Among them "ELECTRIC  SANDWICH," a PSYCH rock/fusion band from the city of Bonn, GERMANY who released their only, self-titled album in 1972 (Brain catalogue number 1018).  

ELECTRIC  SANDWICH initially consisted of four musicians, all of whom had already played with other bands: bass player Klaus Lormann, playing with "Chaotic Trust"; lead guitarist Jorg Ohlert of the "Slaves of Fire"; drummer Wolf Fabian, the founder of Electric Sandwich and touring with a band called "Muli and the Misfits", and singer Jochen "Archie" Carthaus who hand sang with the "Flashbacks".
Fabian confessed: "We as ELECTRIC  SANDWICH immediately started to play our own freaked-out material

Fabian confessed: "We immediately started to play our own material"  What's so fascinating about "ELECTRIC  SANDWICH" is the fact that each of the seven songs is different from the rest even though the band developed a together psychedelic Rock sound concept. Asked about the diversity of styles his band toyed around with, songwriter Ohlert replied: "ELECTRIC  SANDWICH are not limited to one single style of music. We change styles, even in the middle of a song, because we want our music to be alive."  The lyrics deal with stories that complete a full circle from birth to death

ELECTRIC  SANDWICH's only album features a most outstanding opening track, the 8 minute psych jammer "China", with a hypnotic percussive rhythm and fuzzy wah-wah guitar leads through-out.
