But the British (and especially Americans) so did not sing the blues ... The fifth element of some kind, with the author’s inclination. And folk clearly not German. And what then? The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown? Covers like ...CHRIS BRAUN BAND are a Krautrock group based in Dortmund, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany who disappeared from the scene after 2 album releases.
