Spotlight: OUT OF FOCUS : The Greatest Krautrock Band?

I'm a devout afficiando of Krautrock (whatever the style)!  I'm immersed the last 2 days (aside from the late Klaus Schulze's music), in the deep sonic vibrations of Munich's OUT OF FOCUS.  Inspired by  Klemen Breznikar's just published "MUST READ" interview in the wonderful online mag PSYCHEDELIC BABY with Remigius Drechsler.💕

Unbenounced to me, Out Of Focus guitarist and leader Remigius Drechsler just passed away one month ago on the 28th of March 💔.  Drechsler was also in one of my all time fave's EMBRYO !!! 💕  I'm not gonna wax on here about anything other than this...I can think of no other group from the scene in Germany that made 3 pivtol studio LPs in their prime better than Out Of Focus !  They were masterful, totally "schooled" and made Godlike trips throughout, that never let you down and evolve with every repeated listen!
