This group, choosing the name of an ancient Egyptian King, were purveyors of a soft, polished symphonic rock style, similar to that pioneered by Novalis, Jane, Eloy, Barclay James Harvest, Moody Blues, etc. Herbert Natho and Hans-Dieter Klinkhammer formed the band at the end of 1972, but the line-up that recorded La Leyla (1976) wasn't assembled until 1974. This first album was recorded at Conny's Tonstudio, Neunkirchen in the Autumn of 1975, produced by Conny Plank himself and Jane guitarist Klaus Hess. It was among the very first releases on Sky. Certainly Ramses were characteristic of the symphonic "Sky sound" - late seventies pompous and lyrical rock. There were six tracks in all, featuring long instrumental passages of guitar, organ and string synthesiser, all clocking in between five and eight minutes. If this musical formula wasn't exactly revolutionary or inventive, Ramses were competent enough technically
