Poseidon's Creation is a band project covering and performing songs from Eloy to keep this deep wonderful extensive music alive.
So Eloyfans and Artrocklovers, watch out our event on July 28th (see the schedule and our blog).
Next to songs like Inside, Mutiny, Escape To The Heights or Dance In Doubt And Fear we will perform the whole "Ocean" album.
Well, Detlev Schmidtchen and Jürgen Rosenthal had confirmed their appearance to see our show and maybe even play with us on stage but now unfortunately they are not able to come.
By the way "Ocean" celebrates its 30th anniversary this year! :-)
Eloy is a German progressive rock band, whose musical style includes symphonic and space rock, the latter theme being more prevalent on earlier albums.
The band took their name from the Eloi, a futuristic race of people in the H.G. Wells novel The Time Machine.
Founded in the late 1960s by guitarist Frank Bornemann, the band has endured several line-up changes, with Bornemann being the only consistent member of the group. In the 1980s, after a series of major splits in the group, Bornemann pursued a more commercial direction. Despite attracting a large following, the band never gained popularity in the United States.
However, in later years, former members of the band re-joined, and in 1998 fans delighted in hearing Ocean 2, a return to the classic symphonic progressive genre that the band was so well known for. A sequel to the 1977 original, it is commonly thought among fans that it successfully recaptures the spirit of the band, and is a worthy follow-up to the much beloved classic.
Of the band's numerous records, fans generally consider Inside, Floating, Dawn, Ocean, Silent Cries and Mighty Echoes, Planets and Ocean 2 to be the superior albums.
Despite their nationality, the band are not generally considered krautrock due to their sound which has much more in common with English progressive groups such as Yes.
hallo :-) ein dankeschön von mir an euch für die anfrage: herzlich wilkommen bei PIET PETROL. wünsche euch ne schöne restwoche und verbleibe mit lieben kollegialen grüssen euer piet
Hallo Ihr, danke für die Anfrage...und herzlich willkommen auf meiner Freundesliste! ELOY war mal so eine Art Hausband für das Sarstedter Beatfestival 1970 + 1971. Da traten die Jungs neben den Scorps, Birth Control und Frumpy auf. Rock on
Thanks for your words. Whenever you need some psychedelic lights, 100% handmade, no computers, no beamers. But not oldschool looking... let me know. Aber wir können das dann auch auf Deutsch. Höre Eloy schon seit vielen Jahren, habe auch schon mal ein Live Konzert erlebt, sind ja leider nicht so häufig...
Grüße, Klaus
