Nektar is a British band that gained massive success in the early to mid seventies. Originally formed by a group of musicians living near Heidelberg, Germany, their albums and live shows were renowned for their adventurous mix of good live-sound and visionary light shows. The connection between Nektar's music and the art of Helmut Wenske, who designed three of their most successful album covers, made them truly unique. Although they disbanded after Roye Albrighton's death in 2016, Nektar reformed in 2019 with several founding members and recorded a new album featuring artwork by Helmut Wenske.

The current line-up of Nektar includes Derek "Mo" Moore on bass (a founding member), Ron Howden on drums & vocals (also a founding member), Mick Brockett on liquid lights (a founding member from 1969-1979 and again since 2019), Randy Dembo on bass and 12-string guitar (since 2004 and again since 2019), Ryche Chlanda on guitars (previously in 1978 and now since 2019), and Kendall Scott on keyboard (since 2019).

Over the years, Nektar has had various former members including Allan "Taff" Freeman on keyboards & vocals until 2004, Tom Hughes on Hammond organ, keyboards & vocals from 2004-2006, Dave Nelson on guitars

Box Sets

Five CD set. Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this classic album. First released in October 1975, the album was a conceptual work about the concerns of the impact of pollution and environmental damage to the earth and was recorded at the Chateau d'Herouville in France and at AIR Studios in London with sessions engineered by Geoff Emerick. The album was also significant for the guest appearance of synthesizer player Larry Fast (of Synergy, who was later to work with Peter Gabriel). 'Recycled' became another hit in Germany and the USA and spawned a long US and Canadian tour. The message of the album is arguably more pertinent than it was at the time of it's original release and remains one of Nektar's most highly regarded works. This new 5CD edition features a newly remastered version of the album along with two rare single edits, a discarded early mix of the album by Geoff Emerick and an additional three CDs of live recordings from concerts at Massey Hall, Toronto and Calderone Concert Hall in Long Island on the band's 1976 Recycled tour. The set also features an illustrated book and is a fine celebration of a progressive rock classic.
