almost alive

Originally Released 1977 With the six tracks on 'Almost Alive', Amon Düül II still caped the magic of their music. Even if this album sounds more mainstream, you can always feel the vibe of the early 70th, when Düül started to become Germany´s music export No. 1. Highlights on this album are the dark and apocalyptic sounding 'Ain´t Today Tomorrow´s Yesterday', one of the most inventive instrumentals that Amon Düül II ever recorded and 'Live In Jericho', witch ends up in a madly Jam-Session.
'Almost Alive' is what the title already says, an album with the spontaneous, uncaged music that Amon Düül II ever recorded. For the complete re-issue series of the Amon Düül 2 catalogue, the band recorded exclusive bonus material. The CD will be released as a deluxe edition, with enhanced booklet, featuring new liner notes and photos.
