The group created this uncommon name by adding thousand years to the historic battle of Hastings in 1066. 2066 & Then were: Geff Harrison (lead vocals, from England), Gagey Mrozeck (guitars), Steve Robinson and Veit Marvos (both on organ, electric piano, vibes, synthesizer, mellotron, vocals), Dieter Bauer (bass) and Konstatin Bommarius (drums). Unfortunately, their life span was rather short: from Spring 1971 to Summer 1972. Their one and only album is nothing short of an all time classic: “Reflections On The Future” (1972), recorded during Autumn 1971 at the Dierks Studio, Stommeln near Cologne. This album contained five long heavy progressive tracks with a dramatic mood and a quite unique German styling. “At My Home“, a fast tempo opener, kicked off the album with stunning heavy guitars, swirling Hammond organ and Geff Harrison’s great, though slightly soul-influenced vocals. The next track “Autumn” brought in the topics of death and disintegration. The melancholic lyrics predated Pink Floyd’s “Time“. See for more.
