Floh De Cologne biography
Floh de Cologne were formed in 1966 as a political and anarchic collective of students from the University of Cologne. 
The group is composed by Gerd Wollschon (voices, keyboards), Markus Schmidt (violin, bass), Hans-Jorg "Hansi" Frank (drums & keyboards) and Britta Baltruschat 
(voices). They recorded their first album "Vietnam" (Pläne) in 1968. This musical act is a protestation against the war. 
The famous and controversial Rolf Ulrich Kaiser (ohr) published the following albums whose the classics "Rockoper Profitgeier" (1971) and "Lucky Streik" (1972). 
All albums contain provocative and humorous sketches about political and social facts. Musically their style can be considered as a mixture between avant-folk, sound experimentations, free rock and narratives. 
Recorded in 1973, "Geier Symphonie" punctuates Floh de Cologne's original style to demonstrative, semi theatrical and symphonic rock attacks. In 1974, after the split of ohr label, 
the formation go back to "Pläne" for several recordings until the end of the 70's.
