2) Penicillin were a German band (based in the town of Kottweiler) rooted in jazz-rock.
Formed in 1971 by Fred Felder (vocals) and Waldemar Ruth (drums), they had changed a lot over the years before their debut recordings. This was down to the fact that the band was often a large metamorphic troupe of up to 12 or 15 musicians, based around a pretty constant core of five, and that they'd experimented with everything from Hörspiel through to classical, combining such elements into their own unique sound.

Harukanaru nichiwa no kirameki wo torama ete
