Krautrock Meeting 2005 DVD

It's finally available here in NTSC Format......
The DVD of some of the legendary Kraut Rockers re-uniting for the german Rock Palast TV show.....
The DVD gives a hint of how great they must have been in their heyday, but overall does not dissapoint. The standout performance in my opinion is the GURU GURU....this band still fronted ( or pushed from behind his drum kit ) by Mani Neumeier, is full of vitality and drive...and, they perform a killer version of "Der Elektrolurch"
Amon Duul 2 are a bit of a dissapointment on the first couple of songs, but all is forgiven by the time they launch in to "DEUTSCH NEPAL"
EPITAPH, JANE, BIRTH CONTROL & KARTHAGO all turn in inspired Rock performances, you can tell they are having Fun after all these years.
There is lot's of Bonus material on this 2 DVD set, over 217 minutes of material, including band biographies and Interviews with Mani & Chris Karrer & others.
Should be available in Canada as an Import via most Music stores or from SPV.de
Not sure if he has it posted yet, but make sure you also visit Archie @ www.eurock.com where you will also find all the Popol Vuh and Klaus Schulze re-issues
