But, the first LP-Album is genuine punk-rock, not neo-nazi-trash. That is my personal opinion on this production.

78rpm-maniac 27th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumPink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon (1979) | To whitewhale1965.
Yes it was a communist state, but some people got attraction in western popular music through some radioprogrammes, or in dancing-locations, where the GDR-Discjockeys had the order to play their own music and some western-pop music.
If some people from the former GDR had family-members in Western-Germany, they got a little chance to get LPs, or Singles by West-artists as original records. But in the case that the STASI-members controlled the parcels, that was bad luck.
In the former Electronic-stores, where AMIGA-records had been sold, some priviligated persons got that records very easily, but the regular citizens need luck and patience to get such a record. If someone had that luck, many and many tape-copies made the round. That is also history.

78rpm-maniac 20th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumDie Ärzte - Ab 18 (1987) | For this record, it was very useful to have some older siblings in your family in those days.

It was not allowed to sell that record to youngsters under the age of 18 years in Germany.
