Does anyone know where to find a version of this song that is similar to this videos performance? The guitar and electric piano is seems alot more developed than the studio recording of this track.

[superzapper]

@doodookat Live in London you can get it on CD

[wap9]

she is very old now. dosent look like that anymore.

[PAULLONDEN]

@wap9 You "mosent" be kidding.....☸

[Peskygee1]

Love this band! I've got everything they did up to and including Made In Germany. Never get tired of Amon Duul. Thanks for posting!

[ar4bat]

the size of those pupils worrys me

[sortabli]

@ar4bat

Maybe youre are right.

[dannyhood66]

What year is it from?

[Orpheusnarrowway]

1975

[dannyhood66]

Thanks man!

[fabrikk60]

Anybody know if any metal band has ever covered this song? That opening riff just begs for a true metal treatment with a huge wall of overdubbed guitars; it would be amazing.

[Photonzos]

@fabrikk60

no it doesn't. It is absolutely perfect as it is.

the word wall is an old anglo saxon word which means hell.

[fabrikk60]

Renate...my icy Teutonic bitch-goddess I submit and crawl before you...

[MarsHottentot]

Renate is the BOMB.

[SandozSaxonWilliams]

the greatest band ever...

[eddiemerks]

Renate forever.

[dmkuehn]

yep the glory days of prog rock - too bad I never saw them live (not sure if they did any USA gigs I don't recall any) - shows the progession of their heyday which peaked with Dance Of The Lemmings

[dmkuehn]

I meant progression within their heyday

[Hyperakusis1973]

Yes nice version of a great song by Amon Düül II. Those were the days!!

[Tshea13]

Great jazz version of my favorite Amon Duul II song. Thanks for sharing!

[MrJeffcool78]

kick ass dude why do people not play this music on radio anymore very underrated band i am sick of the same bull crap o radio.

[140579140579]

i love tis band, amoon duul rules

[h4z4Rd3r]

Eternal!

Renate's pupils... love it! (:

[chargrave]

Takes me back to '74 when I saw them in North London. Chris Karrer never wore a hat then.

[atonsolaris]

I have recently bought a copy of Wolf City and fell in love with this song... Simply marvelous.

[yesman187]

This is a true blessing. ADII's music is so intense - it is truly remarkable to see Renate's face up close as she sings.

[bebillious]

Renate Knaup, Ich Liebe Dich!

[nikolaus120]

damals war eben Leben noch "authentisch"....!

Man drückte aus was man fühlte....heute wird "coolnes" zur Entfremdung.

[jan1035]

@bebillious  hahaha, you're not the only one!!! everybody was in love with renate. Including me.

[Myrna4Loy]

@jan1035

absolut nicht. ich konnte renate nie besonders leiden. damals wie heute nicht. aber amon düül 2 sind für mich die wichtigste gruppe überhaupt.

[amonduultje]

@bebillious ich aber auch!!!

[TomVanDeusen]

where the hell is the chorus?

[suburbanbatherson]

Great. Wolf City is a fantastic ADII album. Cheers for this.
