Product description


The Rippers were a German band from the late 1960s who released Honesty - a record that blends beat, psych, and garage-flavored rock with soul touches.


Originally released in 1968, Honesty features soulful organ flourishes, driving guitar
leads, and vocals that, while sung in English, carry the unmistakable accent and
energy of a band eager to mix American/British styles into their own sound.


The title track 'Honesty' kicks off with urgency and melody, whilst the 'The Night At
The Lagoon' drifts into garage- psych territory, full of fuzz and attitude. It's a rarity in
the German beat scene - unpolished, heartfelt, and authentically 60s
