Gila – Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee (1973) (@256)
21 Aug 2010
(Review from progarchives.com)
A year after the band’s live recording, Veit returned from Popol Vuh, bringing Florian Fricke with him.
If Gila’s first album was a psych masterpiece, this one is much more progressive. With this album, the band denouces the North American Indian massacre of Wounded Knee.
This album is surely strongly inspired by Jefferson Airplane and very progressive for sure. With classically trained keyboardist Florian Fricke from Popol Vuh (he visited a conservatory being a disciple of Hindemith), Conny Veit found the perfect supplement for his own talents and as well Fichelscher’s high skills on drums and bass and Sabine Merbach with her pleasant vocals contributed a lot to this excellent outcome.
The seven beautiful tracks of this album are dominated by a folksy and more acoustic mood mainly created by the use of 12-string guitar and grand piano with some occasional flute. Combined with the highly poetic lyrics these intense soundscapes generate a merely haunting atmosphere. Two of the tracks, “Young Coyote” and “Little Smoke” are all instrumental and presented by Conny Veit solo on guitar.
Line-up:
- Conny Veit / guitars, vocals, vibes, bass, flute, Moog
- Florian Fricke / piano, Moog, Mellotron
- Daniel Fichelscher / drums, percussion, bass
- Sabine Merbach / vocals
Track List:
01. This Morning – 5:44
02. In a Sacred Manner – 4:39
03. Sundance Chant – 4:09
04. Young Coyote – 3:17
05. Black Kettle’s Ballad – 7:12
06. Little Smoke – 4:25
07. The Buffalo are Coming – 5:05

Bi haftadır şahane şeyler yayınlıyosun, zamanında losless olarak indirmemiş olsam şimdi bunlara mal bulmuş mağribi gibi atlardım walla :) (benim lafım da, un var yağ var şeker var, helva yapsana demek gibi oldu ;) )
Bu arada bütün Gila (bi de German oak) sayfalarına “acep Sakallı biraderim bendekilerden iyi kapak bulabilmiş midir?” diyerek baktım, fakat heyhat… Night Works scanleri benimkiyle aynı zaten (DAP’ın “zip preview” özelliği sağolsun ;) boyuta baktım, birebir). Bu arada German oakları belli ki sen de garcolga’dan almışsın :)
Free Electric sound ve Bury my heart… albümlerinin daha iyi kapakları var (bununki GoD full booklet zaten, diğeri de 1997 second battle, hem jewel case, hem digipack var! bir tek posterin çözünürlüğü biraz kötü, o da eywallah artık), ilgilenirsen gmale bi mesaj çak, anında görüntü kapakları gönderiim…
Böyle kraut psych materyallerden bende olmayan bişiler bul da, ben de indiriim :) (e nerden bileyim sende ne var ne yok dersen, yerden göğe haklısın!)
