(Review from progarchives.com)

When it comes to German progressive hard rock based on the Deep Purple formula, none were better than Birth Control, formed in 1968. The band name was a reaction against the Pope’s declaration that contraceptives were sinful.

Their third album “Hoodoo Man” was released in January 1973 and contained 6 tracks that refined their sound even more. This is a brilliant album with very confident guitar and organ riffs and interplay. It has longer numbers and an energetic hard-progressive resemble more of Atomic Rooster. Noske’s voice had improved (he became one of the best German male vocalists) and he also drummed better than ever. The cover art wasn’t as outrageous as the usual Birth Control standard: just a drawing of a very big, fat woman repressing a little wind-up man!

- Bruno Frenzel / guitar, vocals
- Bernd Koschmidder / bass
