(Review from Gibraltar, Crack in the Cosmic Egg)

Andromeda started in the 60′s as session musicians, and members of the Cologne pop band The Tony Hendrik Five. On their sole album, however, they were hardly a proper band, but merely a duo aided by guests.

The band’s music is very varied, at its lightest resembling late-60′s The Beatles, though mostly it’s heavy and psychedelic rock — quite aggressive hard rock to classically influenced prog with dominating gentle piano. As the music’s often fronted by chunky organ, with blues and classical elements, hints of Brian Auger or The Nice are notable.

The album sleeve doesn’t list who does the vocals. There’s also a guest brass-section on some tracks as well as female backing vocalists.

- Peter Schild / keyboards
- Gunther Steinborn / drums
