[DrSartorius84]

Is the song that plays from the beginning one that was on any of their albums?

[TheParanoid]

Yes, it's Miss Fortune from their first album

[velyogendra]

That is so cool! I noticed that they had a copy of their first album on clear vinyl. God,I used to have the reissue on "Recommended Records". I wonder how much it's worth? Or if you could find that polar bear suit on ebay? Seriously, the song was great! And the ending was different.

[TheParanoid]

the ending is the song "Don't Take Roots" from 71 Minutes of Faust :)

[sixfeetjenna]

Every band needs a polar bear. I´d like to hug Koll :)

[aracri]

Fucking great! Can, Faust, Neu! and Kraftwerk are the most influential german bands of all the time!

[DownGrand1967]

I don't see any reference to polar bears at Wumme in Chris Cutlers informative sleevnotes in the Faust boxset booklet... A great find here !

que musica tan chida cada nota para volar

[NIMBUS1313]

video exelente y fascinante. originalmente incluido en el primer trabajo en dvd del grupo. un exelente documento en video con un valor mayor al que pudiera tener cualquier otra banda.

gracias por permitirlo.

yeah this is later than 71 because that's a copy of 'so far' there too at the table and there's no evidence of Arnulf Meifert unless it's him in the suit ..there's only left to right Gunther Wustoff, Joachim Irmler Jean herve and zappi and rudolf sosna

[6rachael]

this is a film by Andy Hertel who designed the clear album.. it's his fist on the sleeve I met Andy in 2008 and bless him he gave me a copy of the original clear sleeve he had laying around his studio .. I never had the clear sleeve back in the 70's so that was quite a gift! .. in the footage that has to be Uwe Nettlebeck who shakes the bears paw on arriving at Wumme ..on the left ..the tall guy with short hair is Peter Blegvad surely... amazing ... find ..

[atzenanu]

Tangerine Dream perhaps?

[mimlim]

about 50 bucks !

thats what id put on it here in my record store...

[spurtfather]

they don't make music videos like that anymore! imagine if mtv was showing stuff like this all day long instead of wall to wall R 'n B. we can but dream...
