Miles Davis released "Bitches Brew" a year later and clearly no one at Columbia either objected or cared about what it was called. But Columbia was an American label and ECM is not, so...
Mal Waldron played with members of Amon Duul 2? What a revelation. I loved that German band in the way only a Creem writer could circa 1974. I know I reviewed one of these albums. I’ve got to find this!
If I find it, I’ll send it, Marshall. I know you like that Creem stuff. And in 1975, one of the last issues I edited, Lester did the cover story on Kraftwerk. Coherent and visionary story.
I have to think ECM didn't release "Spanish Bitch" because someone at the company objected to the title...
Could be the case, though they could have simply insisted on changing the album’s title. Good record, curious history.

True. And, you know, 'Spanish Bitch' seems a little more 'in your face' than Miles' more psychedelic title.

I would so love to read that, Wayne. Whenever I go poking around in ‘70s German rock and experimental music I seem to find some new avenue to explore.
