Embryo Father, Son And Holy Ghosts (1972)

Embryo

Founded in summer 1969 by drummer and singer Christian Burchard (born 17. 5. 1946 in Hof), the Munich jazz rock group Trat recorded their first LP "Opal" in 1970. Since the group constantly fluctuated between subculture and consumption, the members often changed - more than with any other German group. The only constant member was Christian Burchard. Due to the change of members, the style of the group changed all the time, sometimes it was free jazz, sometimes rockier, sometimes socially committed lyrics were also offered.

Through cooperation with Munich writers, author readings with music from the concerts, a multi-media show with music, slides and own films were created and appearances in kindergartens were nothing special. In October and November 1975 Embryo also performed with the Symphony Orchestra of the city of Bielefeld. Embryo has received the most attention - also in England and America - so far with their latest LP "Surfin'.
