ORIGINAL 1973 FIRST PRESS KRAUTROCK-PROG-HARDROCK
..
BIRTH CONTROL
"RE-BIRTH"
GERMAN/Holland - (orange) CBS - 65963
Original... 1973 first pressing in GOLD leaf custom lettering cover. The release was a combination of the expensive sleeves being produced in Germany while the vinyl was pressed in nearby Holland - this is the way the LP was first issued on the orange CBS label.
The mighty BIRTH CONTROL issued their 1973 "Rebirth" following the path of their popular previous issued (1972) "HOODOO MAN' with the heavy progressive rock edge. Together with "Hoodoo Man" - "Rebirth" marks the peak in the career of the German Krautrock-pioneers BirthControl. The band straddle the world of jazz/prog structures, rock and a heavy-handed prog format in a really effective and refreshingly creative way with this record, which could very well satisfy prog-fusion lovers, as well as those of heavy prog. This is not such an easy thing for a band to realize, but Birth Control pull it off admirably, with the result being an album that was the most focused and professional sounding Birth Control would ever create. One of the main things that really makes Rebirth such a great undertaking is that the band had at this time, as a member, the brilliant German guitarist Dirk Steffens, who injects spirited ripping guitar leads, and even his chunky rhythms are deeply heart-felt accenting as a strong musical presence throughout the album. "Back From Hell" is more or less in the progressive hard-rock style of HOODOO MAN - a track every fan of the band seems to love, explosive drumming techniques are involved.
