Aphrica


Aphrica is a collaboration album by Klaus Schulze, Rainer Bloss and Ernst [Fuchs |Ernst Fuchs], with the painter Fuchs providing vocals. Aphrica was both released and withdrawn in 1984. Although the reason the album was taken off the market was mainly legal, Schulze had very little positive to say about the collaboration in retrospect: "Besides, it's an awful album, just because of that silly singing or recitation. Fuchs tries to be "serious", but he's only involuntarily funny. In Germany we have the word "peinlich" for it." The press seemed to agree. According to tip, a Berlin-based magazine, " due to their grandiloquent dimwittedness, the lyrics provoke only tormented laughter."
