Album Notes & Community Reviews

Evolving significantly since the departure of their original powerhouse vocalist Joy Fleming, this German ensemble delivered a highly intricate, predominantly instrumental progressive rock album. Integrating woodwinds, acoustic elements, and subtle krautrock sensibilities, 'Minne' is an adventurous, pastoral highlight of the 1970s German underground.
