WANIYETULA - Iron City (1971-78-2006) APE (image+.cue), lossless

Waniyetula, founded in Frankfort on Main, released their only LP, “A dream within a dream”, only in 1983; it came out as a CD in 2004. There were a number of good recordings from the 70s, however, which should not rot away in some forgotten place; so they were collected and put on a separate CD. First the great track “Lindis Farne”, played on the 8th German Beat Festival in the Recklinghausen Vestlandhalle in 1971 – which, however, didn’t actually have a lot to do with beat music. Then four tracks from the summer of 1974, the recordings of which were conducted by Volker Stein. And finally two songs with lyrics based on texts by Edgar Allan Poe, recorded in the Frankfort studio Löwengasse under the direction of Richard Kersten and Volker Stein. Later, these two pieces were once more recorded for their LP, though with a completely different line-up. GOD
