Founded in 1969 KROKODIL was A Swissband that emerged inThe late 60's asA blues rockband that played andRecorded progressivePsychedelic underground MUSIC inThe styleof bands like Amon Düül II. From their 2nd album Swamp they started To introduce APsychedelicSoundTo theirsMUSIC ,ASound which is very much dominant On Invisible World Revealed. In the album they make use of mellotron, organ, harmonica and flute all backed up by an acoustic guitar which give The album an exotic andStoned feelingTo it.The blues here gives wayToThePsychedelic , ethnic Sound and vocal harmonies, but it isSTILL there. Getting Up For The Morning continues The Same style (On famous German label Bacillus) but they became more succinct in their approachTo composition and it was moreofA song oriented album than its predecessor. As expected of Theband , there'sA clayof bluesy jams,Fragile ballads and acid-rock fire, butThe secondSide Of The lp brings some subtle Krautrock elements mixed in, and over all there'sA very upbeat qualityToTheMUSIC that is truly infectious andA joyTo listTo . Drummer Düde says: After our label Liberty went bankrupt soon we were back in The studio with Dieter Dierks FOR our 4th albumGetting Up For The Morning andThe single 'Krock'n Roll' / 'A MightyLong WayTo Go'”. Both titles of The 7” areBonustracksOn this edition! Album opener Marzipan is an energetic harmonica-fueled and acid-rock burning electric guitar powered gutsy swamp-rocker. Full of lengthy solos, One orTwo moments even briefly remindingof Jimi Hendrix, it makesFORA kick-ass opener, butThe best is yetTo come. And I Know is A blissful acid ballad withA drowsy melody, it's fullof delicate and dreamy David Gilmour-inspired guitar licks, andThe piece could have easily appearedOn anyof those early acid/psych albumsFrom PINK Floyd. Electric piano ripples, warm group harmonies in The chorus, while wafting harmonica brings A dusty old westernSound , and whenThe soaring Mellotron arrives inThe second half, it takesOnA restrained near-orchestral grandiosityTo get swept up in. Rabatz is A short funky Southern rocker with dirty lead guitar slinging and Was There ATime isA letterPsychedelic interludeTo closeTheFirst side, A sitar drone with mind-bending narration overThe great! The second side brings some light but welcome Krautrock flavors To The album, instantly noticeableOn School days, just listenFORThe fuzzy distorted guitar riffing inThe background, Stoned phasing electronics and The rattling maddening drumming. Drifting flute darts around, funky wah-wah guitar powers through and treated harmonica hovers in The air. Next up, being The sixth track, of course it makes senseTo title it Song No. 2 It's an acid-folk vocal ballad bookended with wasted floating acoustic guitar and sleepy hazy harmonica, mellotron trickles, The warmest bass playing (that even takes flight with tasty soloing in The second half, almost like it's actually singing), beforeThe middle gently moves up into tempoA joyful sprightly electric guitar chill out just likeTheFirstTwo Agitation Free albums. The rambunctious drumming and more urgent guitar strums just before The end even briefly remind of Amon Duul 2. The 12th of March is A frantic bluesy rockerTo closeOn , fullofHEAVY guitar grooves,A joyful and catchy vocal, more leaping harmonica, andThe purring bass playing especially rumbles with purpose here, but it's A shame aboutThe uninspired fade out duringA scorching electric guitar solo. Album was newly remastered and comes with insert sheet with story and photos. A Highlight! ( LONG HAIR )
