CARNIVAL IN BABYLON

Huummm...this album smells flowers, peace and drugs influences. The folk side of the band is very suitable in these stoned epic / short rock suites. The long improvised, psychedelic instrumentals are properly neglected in favour of rather peaceful ballads sung by the lovely lady vocalist Renate Knaupp. Dominated by delicious musical parts of the two guitarists and gentle vocal melodies, this album deserves a good mark in Amon Duul II career, showing to the public an other side of their music, less experimental and complex but a nice and efficient psych/ folk rock music.
