Yatha Sidhra

Yatha Sidhra, from Freiberg,Germany, near both Swiss and People from france edges, was a short-lived group that only lasted long plenty of to record 1 little bit of music. That one little bit of music was the 40-minute “A Yoga Mass” which extended over two edges from the LP from the same name released in 1973 from the famous Mind label and regarded as among the classics of cosmic Krautrock. Yatha Sidhra’s origins get back to the middle-’60s, when two brothers, multi-instrumentalist Rolf and drummer Klaus Fichter started playing in a variety of groups together, you start with a spirit group known as Lea Gamble that contains them and two American ex-service males. By the first 1970s the Fichter’s had been teamed with People from france bassist Jean-Michel Boivert and flautist Peter Elbracht in a difficult rock band known as Brontosaurus, which due to the flute sounded a little like Jethro Tull. In early 1973, Rolf Fichter began work on an extended new function, “A Yoga Mass,” and quickly started to perform it live with Brontosaurus. At one gig Achim Reichel, an integral physique in German rock and roll music, was awe-struck plenty of from the piece that he befriended the music group. Reichel got them a agreement with Brain Information to record the piece, beneath the condition that they switch their name to something appropriate for “A Yoga Mass,” which didn’t sound in any way like Brontosaurus’s various other materials, as the piece was a lot more hypnotic and dreamy. The name Yatha Sidhra was selected because it got a mystical sound to it. By enough time the record was recorded afterwards that season, guitarist and bassist Matthias Nicolar got changed Boivert. Reichel created the record, and onto it Rolf Fichter performed Moog, flute, vibes, electrical piano, electric guitar and vocals. Human brain released the record in 1974 using a die-cut gatefold cover using the album’s name in cut-out stencil. The group presumably just existed to help make the one documenting, and not a lot longer than that. Rolf and Klaus Fichter ultimately re-emerged as the duo Dreamworld and released several records in the first 1980s of rather regular ELP-styled synth-prog with non-e of A Deep breathing Mass’s magic and mystique.
