Formed in Berlin in 1967, and fusing analogue electronics with Eastern scales, Agitation Free are unfairly forgotten in favor of Krautrock contemporaries Can, Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk.
Their 2007 induction into the Tokyo Tower Progressive Rock Wax Museum prompted three reunion shows, filleted here for release. The band’s best album, the epically abstract Last, is largely ignored in favor of more manageable tracks from their first two, re-born as rock-tastic world music hybrids with unwelcome hints of Top Gear incidental cues.
Look out! The 1968 Pink Floyd are driving a Range Rover Evoque through a crowded Moroccan souq.
