Some press quotes (1969-1999):

 
"That was a strange sound - I like it. -"
Alexis Korner, London, 1969
 
"'Drive Me Somewhere': # 2 in 'Hit 70'"
BBC London, 1.2.1970
 
"'Sing This Song Together': # 2 in 'Hit 70 / Europarade'"
BBC London, 5.4.1970
 
"Album of the month: Percewood's Onagram 1969-1974"
Record Collector, London, 1984
 
"A German Band who enjoys a cult-reputation ... fresh, invigorating style, recommended to anyone who fancies broadening their musical horizons ..."
Record Collector, London, 1984
 
"One of Germany's best kept secrets. - Percewood's Onagram released a couple of very interesting albums that are as good as the best English folk rock of the time."
Pat Thomas, San Fransisco, 1997
 
"Percewood's Onagram's songs are straight out of the angry young school of acoustic rock, a reflection of turbulent times & troubles. - The music is hippidippy with more than a fair amount of sliding hooks and melodies that keep you a little off-balance and interested. - Obvious connections to Bob Dylan & Neil Young."
Dirty Linen, The Electric Folk Magazine, USA, 3/1997
 
"What struck me immediately about the music of Percewood's Onagram was it's authenticity. Deceptively simple, bitter-sweet, sometimes angry and sad but always exquisitely expressed and effortlessly played. This wasn't a voice struggling to get somewhere; this voice knew exactly where it was going ... There was an inevitability about what I was hearing; it felt like coming home, like meeting someone you had known all your life but only just met ..."
Alan Bangs, 2/1999
