GAA - Auf der Bahn zum Uranus

The Saarland band G_ɬ§a played German-language progressive rock. Their band name derives from the ancient Greek gods, where Gaia (Latin notation: G_ɬ§a) is the goddess of the earth and fertility. The groups only LP, Auf der Bahn zum Uranus, was a short run released on the Kerston label in 1974 and is today sold at about 600 euros. It is a mature and well-balanced album, the artistic value of which long remained undiscovered. The tasteful cover was designed by Eduard Bell, the brother of G_ɬ§a bassist Peter Bell. There were several re-issues of the album -- LPs as well as CDs -- but unfortunately not all of them legitimate. The LP on Garden of Delights is provided with a four-page colored insert in LP size offering a detailed band history in German and English, complete discography, label repros, many photographs, and a Kerston story. -Garden Of Delights.
