308. Amon Düül

Episode 308 of the “opus project” is AMON DÜÜL. Core Krautrock, and I love it.  They started as a German art commune experimental drug circle, but then spun off into a more musically proficient unit, known as Amon Düül II, which made the essential early 70s Krautrock recordings. Another spin-off was called Amon Düül UK in the 80s. It’s hard to describe this music; it’s within the bounds of rock music but is thoroughly unconventional.
