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.

KomKol - Index 1973 (Germany, Krautrock, Polit Rock)

Apparently, their name is a contraction of Kommunikation Und Kollektiv. An unusual and very obscure early-1970's underground progressive, of whom very little is known about them. They played a varied polit-rock, from hard-rock through to folk styled, akin to Ton Steine Scherben and Lokomotive Kreuzberg.

Hans-Jürgen Eich (guitars, vocals), 
Dieter Sallinger (drums, percussion), 
Thomas Roscher (bass, vocals), 
Walter Slansky (guitar, congas, vocals), 
Mischa Zai (organ, pianos, vocals),
