Well-known in collector circles thanks to the spectacular cover design by H. R. Giger. The only LP by the obscure Swiss band The Shiver was recorded in 1969. It was also the only LP released by the tiny label Maris Musik, allegedly in an edition of only 1000 to 2000 copies. Founded from the ashes of the beat band The Shivers, the five-piece band around guitarist Dany Rühle and British singer Peter Robinson consisted of Roger Maurer (dr), Mario Conza (b) and Jelly Pastorini (keyb). They played a mix of Rhythm and Blues enriched with proto-progressive and psychedelic elements of the late sixties.
Already at the end of 1969, the band fell apart after musical differences. This lost Krautrock legend from Switzerland is legendary, super rare and hardly affordable.
