Unearthed decades after it was recorded, the discovery of these tapes offers a rare and electrifying glimpse into one of the band's most vital creative periods. Featuring the classic lineup of Hellmut Hattler (bass), Peter Wolbrandt (guitar), Udo Dahmen (drums), and Ingo Bischof (keyboards), the performance showcases Kraan at full power--fluid, inventive, and deeply locked into the improvisational spirit that defined their sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmerging in the early 1970s as part of Germany's progressive and jazz-rock movement, Kraan quickly established themselves through a unique fusion of rock, jazz, funk, and world influences. Anchored by Hattler's distinctive bass work and Wolbrandt's expressive guitar playing, the band became known for their extended live performances, where tight compositions often opened into expansive improvisation. By the late 1970s and into 1980, Kraan had reached a particularly dynamic phase, with recordings from this era later partially documented on \u003ci\u003eTournee\u003c\/i\u003e--until now, the full scope of these performances had remained hidden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpanning approximately 80 minutes across 13 tracks, \u003ci\u003eAladin Tapes\u003c\/i\u003e not only revisits standout material from the period but also introduces previously unknown compositions such as 'She's Gone' and 'Berg und Tal,' offering new insight into the band's evolving live repertoire. Carefully restored from the original tapes, the recording preserves both the clarity and raw energy of the performance, capturing the spontaneity, interplay, and sheer joy of the musicians on stage. More than just a historical artifact, \u003ci\u003eAladin Tapes\u003c\/i\u003e stands as a vivid document of Kraan's enduring musical chemistry and a must-hear release for fans of progressive rock and jazz fusion.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eYaqui Yagua \u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFar West\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBorgward\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBerg und Tal\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eNam Nam\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eShe's Gone\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eHallo Ja Ja, I Don't Know\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eYou're Right\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eAlmrausch\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLet it Out\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eVollgas ahoi\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eNam Nam (Zugabe-Part)\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSilky Way\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36Music\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pop\/Rock\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 79:30 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 04\/17\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4260186851193\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"BROKENSIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47383041605881,"sku":"LP27412","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/kraan-aladin-tapes-lp","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
