vlotho 1977

The RMO from Hamburg was on the Brain label. Here is their complete gig from the Vlotho festival 1977; top sound quality, soundboard recording.

Release Music Orchestra from Hamburg (ex Tomorrow's Gift) released five long-playing records from 1974 to 1979, all on Brain, and is one of the most respected German rock groups. The music had nothing to do with classical music, as the name might lead you to believe, but was pleasantly relaxed jazz-rock with progressive touch. On Sunday, 3 July 1977, the group played at the annual "Umsonst und draußen" (free and outdoors) festival, which that year again took place at the sports field on the Amtshausberg in Vlotho. Ulrich Wilkening expertly recorded everything. This flawless-sounding recording was made from his tapes. Complete performance. Three of the six pieces are not on any RMO LP.
