Nektar is probably the most German-like of the Seventies British bands, a fame that owes a lot to the town in which this band was founded (Hamburg) and to their stylistic approach (Assimilated to Krautrock). Nektar was formed in 1969 by Allan Freeman (keyboards & vocals), Roye Albrighton (guitars & vocals), Derek More (bass, Mellotron & vocals) and Ron Howden (drums). Their earliest albums were hard rock that drew heavily from the space-rock and Pink Floyd styles of the same period.
