I'm Brazilian, I've always loved music and since I was little I buy and I listen to rock.
During the 70's I met a magazine called Pop, which I christened German Pop, since it was of Germanic origin, I did not understand what was written in the great majority, but it was there that I met the groups that I publish here on the blog today. Rock made in Germany is one of my favorites, but my taste is very eclectic.

Sou brasileira, sempre amei música e desde muito pequena compro e ouço rock. Durante os anos 70 conheci uma revista chamada Pop, que batizei de Pop Alemã, uma vez que era de origem germânica, eu não entendia o que estava escrito na sua grande maioria, mas foi ali que conheci os grupos que hoje publico aqui no blog. O rock feito da Alemanha é um dos meus favoritos, mas meu gosto é muito eclético.

Mythos - Concrete City 1979 (Germany, Krautrock, Progressive Rock)

Lembro perfeitamente do que senti ao ouvir este disco pela primeira vez, estava em casa, no rádio começava mais um programa daqueles que já não existem mais, só não lembro exatamente qual era, sei que eu adorava gravar este programa em fita cassete, bons tempos! Enfim, o programa havia começado e perdi o nome do grupo e do álbum, passei anos a cata disso sem saber nome e sobrenome do disquinho, achei finalmente! Adoro este álbum,  recomendadíssimo!

Saffran - Blue In Ashes 2004 (Germany, Krautrock, Symphonic Prog)

German act SAFFRAN was formed in the late 1960's, and the just over ten years they existed they only released a 7 inch single, Die Jungen Dinger, in 1974. But as the second version of the band solidified around 1974 they did record a full album's worth of material. But as many other bands, probably more than we'll ever know about, the record labels they were in touch with didn't find their material worth releasing.

Just over 20 years later German label Garden of Delights decided that this unreleased production should see the light of day, and in 2004 Saffran's one and only full lenght effort Blue in Ashes was given it's belated official release. With the A and B side of their 1974 single added as bonus tracks.
