Digipack, remastered CD

The real big "breakthrough" for these "Romantic-Rockers" from Hamburg came actually with their 3rd album, but this, their second effort originally released in 1975, already shows the direction: poetic German text, surrounded by everchanging progrock with classic influences, which in this case is still "rough" enough not to descend in to insipid drivel. Their fondness for German Poet Friedrich Hoelderlin shines through and their music has also been "borrowed" in sound and style by French Duo Air, for their soundtrack to the "Virgin Suicides".
Guest guitarist Carlo Karges is present here, (later became the guitarist for famous Nena) and his Track "Wer Schmetterlinge lachen hört" became the secret hymn of the band. One of the best in the genre.
