@vampira1409 krautrock isn't a 'derogatory term' at all - lots of the original K-Rock bands use the name to describe their music. I agree that it comes from a slightly xenophobic use of language (I would hardly classify 'Kaut' as A Grade racism), but it's simply the only term available. You can't say 'Kosmische Musik', as in my mind this implies just one area of the krautrock scene (cosmic jokers etc.), the same goes with 'German Prog-Rock'. Anyway, I've never met a German who was offended!

I honestly don't care much for the rather derogatory term "krautrock", but the artists associated with the genre certainly are among the best and most diverse (and least destination-specific, at least in terms of point of influence, musically speaking) performers on the planet. Amon Düül II, Ash Ra Tempel, Neu!, Faust, Popol Vuh and (in particular) Can (to name a few) - only the Cambridge and Canterbury scenes come close to offering a similar string of quality, in terms of inventiveness.

I actually like the live version (live in London) more..... not saying that i don't LOVE this version. does anyone share my opinion?

This song's really awesome...........
@WhackaWhacka Thank you for removing that horrible comment. That didn't know what he was talking about. Now we sane people can get back to enjoying good music without the threat of fascist trolls like that guy.

@Mikemaniax No problem. Banal troll garbage unfit to share space with the mighty Düül.
