Grobschnitt's career spanned over two decades, during which they released several albums that have since become classics in the krautrock and progressive rock genres. Their self-titled debut album "Grobschnitt" was released in 1972, showcasing their unique blend of rock, symphonic elements, and humor. This was followed by "Ballermann" in 1974, a double album that featured one of their most famous tracks, "Solar Music," which became a staple of their live performances. In 1975, they released "Jumbo," an album that saw the band experimenting with a more accessible sound while still maintaining their progressive roots. Throughout their career, Grobschnitt underwent numerous lineup changes but continued to maintain a dedicated fan base until they disbanded in the late 1980s. Their influence on the German music scene and the broader progressive rock community remains significant.
