Who's That Man - A Tribute To Conny Plank (2014)

Who's That Man - A Tribute To Conny Plank (2x LP)

In late 2000 we lost German engineering maverick Conny Plank who was responsible for so many great Krautrock Lp's over the years.  Conny was responsible for Eno, Moebelius, Kraftwerk, Neu!, Grobschnitt, Jane, Can and tons of others Tier A , B and C prog and psych bands.....far too many to mention !

Who's That Man is a tribute album in memory of Conrad Plank and spans 4 CD's of assorted tracks he produced over the years from a wide myriad of artists.  The double vinyl set is a smaller summary of his work but considering the vinyl format I just not pass this up.

  Included in this small snippet of Plank's recording career is a track from Neu!, Dusseldorf, Ibliss, Moebius and Plank, Roedelius, Phew, DAF, Michael Rother and the early Eurythmics.

I love this double vinyl compilation and can not stop playing it..........it is just that good and the sound is fantastic !

Simply brilliant career and a huge figure in prog and psych arenas and this compilation is killer stuff although only a small sample of his work and engineering brilliance!
