Xhol (Caravan) - Hau-RUK 1971 Germany Krautrock, Jazz-Rock, Fusion

Following on from Xhol Caravan was Xhol. According to some sources Xhol had already split up by the time this, their second album, was released. It's a live recording that dates from July 1970, and continues from ELECTRIP on a more esoteric level, overtly trippy in feel.
The LP had just one lengthy improvisation per side, the cosmic Breit with its fuzzed and wah-wah saxes, all tripping along in a manner similar to Embryo or Annexus Quam at their most out-there. The second side was always quite a surprise, Schaukel soon changes focus into a psychedelic blues and shocks most with its X-rated variation on "Rock Me Baby". Xhol loved to challenge!
They did also reform in 1974 for a planned album on Brain, however only one (LP
side-long) track was completed which is now documented here as Suden Twi Western. which finds them on a jazzier footing, showing even more the Zappa fusion influence.
