Retrospectives

Mayo Thompson, 1999[2]

Red Crayola were in Germany doing some work with Conny and I met Moebius at a little festival in his hometown. He wanted to try something different, so he asked me to write the lyrics and sing on this Ludwig's Law. The guy at Moebius's record company Sky hated it. It wasn't Krautrock as he knew it.
