"Musik Von Harmonia" by Harmonia (1974)
CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
Harmonia "Musik Von Harmonia"  1974 (Germany) 
This week's CAOTW is the debut album by the kosmische supergroup featuring the two guys from Cluster with the guitarist from NEU! Both groups were still active when their members played hooky to record as Harmonia: Cluster released their classic Zuckerzeit album later the same year, and NEU! put out their last album the following year. Although not a popular group or record at the time, they did draw the attention of Brian Eno who recorded some sessions with them in 1976 that weren't released until the 1990's (as well as an album he recorded with Cluster-minus-Rother in 1977, called Cluster & Eno.) Many decades later, the Harmonia and Eno-collaboration albums are seen as landmarks in the development of "post rock" and the more meditative end of electronic music.
Also on the show this week: the latest King Gizzard album is thrash metal! And a modern heavy classic from Japanese power trio 88Kasyo Junrei: "Kingdom of the Brain".
