Special thanks to Jan Reetze, Ulrich Adelt, and Eurock for collecting all the English information on Kaiser. Their work basically allowed this video to exist. I did lodge a few questions to a well-connected German speaker, but there does not seem to be much more info on Kaiser's current existence in German. Also, about the glitches in some of the Essen footage, that is from the original broadcast footage uploaded to RU-vid. I don't think its too bad so I left it in. I think trying to chop out the errors would have made it look worse.
You beat me to creating a Rolf Ulrich kaiser documentary, haha. Congrats on this well-researched video essay. However, during my research I found out, that he indeed has passed away.
Pseudiom has quickly become of my fav channels, love the recent videos as of late! from microgenres of obscure music, weird conspiracy theories to iconic people who don't even have a wikipedia page, always love seeing your videos appear on my sub box!! much love!
For sure! Been subbed for a while now and been saying he's criminally under-subscribed. This is one of the most interesting channels on youtube and every topic is something unknown and eclectic to me. Considering how generic and repetitive many channels are on here, the fact that this isn't AT LEAST a few hundred thousand sub channel is baffling
I'm glad people always show up to watch. I never thought my videos would get more than a few hundred videos, but I've always been surprised. The viewers are why I keep making videos and because I like to do the research.
It's a wide topic. I think one on general Prog Rock might be a little to large. I've covered things like King Crimson before, but I have been tinkering with a more historical video on English Prog Rock. It's only an idea though. I'm sure I'll cover something in the field again.
Listened to a Cosmic Jokers album a while back, never knew there was an interesting story behind the Krautrock scene. Awesome video! Super informative.
I found this channel about a week or two ago and have become addicted. I've watched almost every video and they either are always on a topic I'm already interested in or new ones I haven't heard of that spiral into new interests.
I still need to actually get to a video on Zappa. One of my friends recently helped me get into his catalog. Maybe next year? I want to give it some time. By the way George, I think you mentioned recommending Argentina writers in another comment? I lost track of it. Send them my way and I'll definitely check them out. I can read Spanish pretty sufficiently so translations are not an issue. I'll be on vacation for the next two weeks and I'll take a look when I get home. Thanks for recommendations as always!
If you dare, start with Los Sorias, by Alberto Laiseca, a literary labyrinth. If you think it's overwhelming, try his short stories, like Garden of Talking Machines. A rare example of a Argentine writing fantasy Is Angélica Gorodischer, Kalpa Imperial is excellent. If you want classical whodunnits, Manuel Peyrou and Pérez Zelaschi. Overshdowed by Borges and Bioy Casares, her husband, Silvina Ocampo Is a great narrator. Ricardo Piglia has intense noir thrillers you may like ( also, an important essayist), Leopoldo Marechal's Adán Buenosayres if you want a surrealist yet very porteño take on the Ulysses. Pablo Manzur if you want hardboiled stories, and Juan Sasturain if you want a parody of said hardboiledness which Is also quite entertaining. There Is also one of the best Argentine writers, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, but he may be of little interest to you. Rodolfo Walsh has neat crome stories, but he Is a proverbial can of wormd. The most obscure writer I can reccomend Is Carlos Mastrangelo, but I doubt you will find a copy of any of his books, I only have one. Perhaps online? By the way, Alberto Laiseca was also a great narrator, he has a show on channel I-Sat where he retold orally all sorts of horror stories. You can watch almost every segment in RU-vid, search for Cuentos de Terror con Alberto Laiseca. And this is all I can mentions nos, in a haste. Later, I can search my library and find more. Hope this helps a bit.
