Progressive talk


I'm into the german krautrock and some people call it german progressive rock. Is there any difference or these are just two common things.
Any input from progressive and krautrock addicts is appreciated.

Hi Artprint.I enjoy Damo Suzuki's vocals very much.Never can understand what he's saying (or mis-pronouncing)adds to the experience if you ask me.He's also very cool (and funny).Helps me keep a smile on my face when I'm being cool.
I dont care how he got in the band.Look at David Lee Roth,(he had the van).
To all prog-krautrock addicts there is an announcement:
David Sylvian is comming to US. He will give his performances in different states arround May.
Marakentz,
That's the problem with labelling music-David Sylvian is neither of the genres described .........
Labeling music has only virtual meaning but in reality something you can call music and something you can't.
Davej857 is an extremely well informed consumer of German psycho active riffage and rightly states that labels and categories are trivial. The Crack in the Cosmic Egg book is a useful (but flawed) map if you want to check out some of the great warped rock that Germans pumped out from the mid sixties to the early 90's. Artprint's opinion of Damo Suzuki prevents him from absorbing Can's best work. Without Future Days, Ege Bamyasi, Tago Mago, or Soundtracks the Can experience would be much smaller.
PS- Get the Kollektiv stuff (not the red one) if you can find it.
