Heiner Goebbels/Alfred Harth - Der durchdrungene Mensch / Indianer fûr Morgen (1981, vinyl rip)

The composer and director Heiner Goebbels (*1952) belongs to the most important exponents of the contemporary music and theatre scene.
Alfred Harth is a German multimedia artist, band leader, musician, and composer who mixes genres in a polystylistic manner.

The duo Goebbels/Harth (1975–1988) , combining German composer, music-theatre director and keyboardist Heiner Goebbels and German composer, multi-media artist and saxophonist Alfred Harth became famous for its adaptation of and departure from European composers, especially Hanns Eisler, implemented in a provocatively fresh manner into structured free improvisations and deploying content from areas beyond music. The duo was nicknamed the “Eisler brothers” by music critic W.Liefland. They later also experimented with different genres and sound collages, including electronic devices. The duo played in many international festivals and concerts in cities as diverse as Tel Aviv, Zagreb, West and East Berlin and South America.

In 1981, Berendt together with the duo produced the LP, "Zeit wird knapp" by including love poems and ballads from Bertold Brecht, for which they recruited vocalists Dagmar Krause and Ernst Stötzner. The duo then artistically shaped the German New Wave music/Neue Deutsche Welle in their style with their LPs "Indianer Fuer Morgen"

The first time I heard the track "Berlin, Q-Damm 12.4.812" with it references to the Berlin squatter movement and the heavy repression I was deeply impressed and moved.

The whole album is a magnificent combination of jazzy and experimental tunes combined with plingity-plong electronics in the Residents style and all blended by the more intellectual fraction of the NDW sounds of Germany at the time of this release. Imagine Residents jamming with Sun Ra while Frieder Butzmann and Pascal Comelade are furiously joining them!

This album was recorded with Alfred Harth, Heiner Goebbels, Annemarie Roelofs, Andreas Boje and Dagmar Krause in August, 1981 in Stuttgart and Kirchberg, produced by Wolfgang Ham. It was released on the "Riskant" label in 1981.
