Pancake
Out Of The Ashes
Pancake from Winnenden near Stuttgart emerged from their psychedelic predecessor Nyrvana Pancake in 1974 and now played progressive rock with clear symphonic tendencies. With changing members they released three LPs with self-written tracks, namely "Roxy elephant" from 1975, "Out of the ashes" from 1977 and "No illusions" from 1979. The CD edition of "Out of the ashes" contains one bonus track, recorded live in 1978 in co-operation with the highly talented bassist Klaus Scharff who had come from Siddhartha and is today producing Die Fantastischen 4. While on Pancake's first album there were to be heard two guitars, one of them was now replaced by keyboards. English vocals, but there are also long instrumental parts in which the five musicians can prove their mastery.
