Spektakel, Oldenburg

Biografie

Spektakel was formed as a trio in 1969. Detlef Wiedecke (guitar), Eduard Schicke (drums), and Werner Protzner (bass),were all members of Oldenburg`s underground rock scene. Their common bond was a passion for spontaneous inprovisations and the music of Deep Purple. They found an isolated rehearsal space in the countryside where they could jam. These sessions would go on for hours, sometimes even days! Gigs would always start with cover versions of Deep Purple songs and end with long improvisations. SPEKTAKEL concerts would sometimes last for five hours.All three musicians moved with their families to Steenfelde, Ostfriesland, where they built a house together (thanks to Friedel Pormann!).
In 1973, Detlef switched from guitar to keyboards (Hammond organ, Moog synthesizer, and Mellotron). Many Guitarists auditioned for the band. Ultimately they decided on Heinz Fröhling, who moved into the SPEKTAKEL-HOUSE with his wife and his daughter, Melanie. The band rehearsed constantly. Although the songs were more composed they still left space for improvisations. SPEKTAKEL`S music blended all styles from hard rock to 12-tone-music! They wrote music and lyrics together. They lived together. They worked together. Ultimately this was the reason why this version of the band only lasted one year. SPEKTAKEL`S gigs became legendary for their enormous light show and the equipment that was used. Even today people still remember their gigs. Shortly after the music on this CD was recorded the band dissolved. Heinz and Ede joined with Gerd Führs to form Schicke Führs Fröhling.

Rezensionen

Spektakel (© 1973/74, (p) 1996)
[...] Overall quite a nice little CD. Who knows if the pieces were truly finished for release on LP, so the slight pitfalls might have been fixed. The sound is great, another fantastic job from Bob Katz. The music is very well played and doesn't drag. Well parts of "7 Pounds Tommy" and "No No Not you" do drag, but that can be overlooked. The musicianship is near top flight. This band might have gone places if not for the breakup! One of TLE's best release, recommended to fans of early 70s rock, the kraut rock scene or the 'tron enthusiast!
