Konrad "Conny" Plank helped Grobschnitt produce their eponymous record, which makes sense because, as producer, Plank had his fingertips all over the krautrock scene including the work of one of the earliest krautrock outfits, the experimental quintet Organisation.
Actually, the band was named Organisation zur Verwirklichung gemeinsamer Musikkonzepte, or the "Organization for the Realization of Common Music Concepts", but they digressed. The band formed in 1967 and included Ralf Hütter (organ), Florian Schneider-Esleben (flute, violin, percussion), Basil Hammoudi (glockenspiel, percussion), Butch Hauf (bass, percussion), and Alfred "Fred" Mönicks (percussion). Organisation released only one album in 1970 titled Tone Float on the British label RCA Victor, but it failed to sell prompting their drop. The band disbanded with most of the members opting to attend university.
