VIRUS - Thoughts (1971-2014) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

Virus, from the Bielefeld area in Westphalia, were the best and most famous local progressive group there in the early seventies. Their first LP, “Revelation”, was released in 1971 and is partly reminiscent of the early Pink Floyd. The second and last Virus LP, “Thoughts”, was recorded with a different line-up, again under the direction of Conny Plank, and it was released on the legendary Pilz label at the end of 1971. The LP is no longer as twisted as the first one had been, and its tracks are shorter. It certainly, however, meets the expectations inspired by the Pilz label. The CD edition has been provided with two bonus tracks, which are now to be heard on a Virus CD for the very first time. The 32-page booklet leaves nothing to be desired. GOD
